Mahindra has launched two new manual variants of the XUV300 compact SUV, and the compact SUV's prices start at Rs 7.99 lakh.
- All W4 variants get a sunroof
- W4 variant extends to the Turbosport model
- New, entry-level W2 variant introduced
Mahindra XUV300 W2
Mahindra has introduced a new W2 base variant on the compact SUV, which sits below the W4 variant. This variant is available exclusively with one engine and gearbox option – a 110hp, 200Nm, 1.2-litre turbo-petrol mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox. With this new base model costing Rs 7.99 lakh, ex-showroom, we expect that the vehicle will lose certain features that are available on the W4. However, the company has not shared any details with us yet.
Mahindra XUV300 Turbosport W4
The sportier model in the XUV line-up, the Turbosport, also gets a new W4 base trim that's priced at Rs 9.29 lakh. It was previously available only from the W6 trim onwards, which is Rs 1.2 lakh less than the W6. This new W4 trim is available only with a 6-speed manual and has 131hp and 230Nm on tap.
In addition, all W4 variants now get a sunroof, which was previously available only from the W6 variant onwards. Mahindra will also introduce a panoramic sunroof with the facelift of the XUV300 next year. The W4 variant is now available with three engine options – 2 petrol and a diesel – but only with a manual gearbox.
As is the case with the W2, the company has not shared the revised feature list with us, so it is not known what the W4 misses out on over the W6.
