Mahindra XUV 7XO Shows Off Triple-Screen Interior Before Launch

The Mahindra XUV 7XO, which is the upcoming updated as well as renamed version of XUV 700, is all set to debut on 5 January. Before its debut, the carmaker dropped another teaser, this time providing us a glimpse at its interior design.

What was spotted?

After watching the teaser, the most prominent giveaway is the triple-screen display, which is almost similar to Mahindra’s newer electric SUVs, the XEV 9s and XEV 9e. This setup combines the digital instrument cluster, central infotainment touchscreen as well as passenger-side display for entertainment.

The cabin is watched in a fresh beige and tan theme, making the interior look airier and more premium than before. The keen-eyed viewers may notice the presence of Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, the ambient lighting across the door panels as well as the dashboard, ventilated seats and a panoramic sunroof.

It also sports the two-spoke illuminated steering wheel, which we have watched on th electric SUVs till now, that will now make way to the ICE cars. The front passenger seat gets the powered boss mode, while keen-eyed viewers may also make out power adjustment controls for the co-driver seat. We believe that quite many things in XUV 7XO can be well borrowed from the electric XEV 9S.

Expected Price and Rivals

The XUV 7XO is expected to be priced from around Rs. 15 lakh (ex-showroom). It will rival the Mahindra Scorpio N, Tata Safari, Hyundai Alcazar, and the MG Hector Plus.
