Mahindra XUV 500 is the latest kid on the block! Being Mahindra & Mahindra's flagship vehicle, it was launched in the country in September 2011. And, in no time, it became the fastest SUV to achieve 1 Lakh unit sales milestone in India. It was developed jointly at company's Nashik and Chakan plant and it is the first Mahindra vehicle to have monocoque chassis. It is also exported to several major international markets like South Africa, Australia, Chile, Italy etc. Mahindra XUV 500 pictures clearly indicate that it is one giant size SUV which reflects ruthless aggression. Such was the aura of this highly capable off-roader that, even Mumbai based, Dilip Chhabria led designing firm, DC Designs came out with a lounge version of this SUV.
Mahindra XUV 500 price was quite belligerent as it was placed in a bracket of Rs. 10.83 - 14.68 Lakhs (Ex. Showroom, Delhi). It was offered in total 5 variants - W4 FWD, W6 FWD, W8 FWD, W8 AWD and W8 FWD Sportz. It had an array of sophisticated features inside the cabin and a few really praiseworthy are - first-in-class 6-inch colour touch-screen infotainment system with GPS navigation control, 2 DIN music player with DVD/CD/ MP3 player and 6 speakers, Dual tone leather upholstery with best-in-class fit and finish, Fully Automatic Temperature Control with dual HVAC and vents in each row, 8-way adjustable leather seats with full lumbar support, Voice Commands, Cool box on Centre Console, and Cruise control. Mahindra XUV 500 features and specifications are top-notch and are rarely visible in any other SUV of similar price range.
Talking about the engine, it comes with a 2.2L mHawk140 diesel motor which develops a maximum power output of 140bhp at 3750rpm and peak torque performance of 330Nm at 1600-2800rpm. It was mated to a 6 speed synchromesh manual transmission to maximize performance and fuel efficiency. It had an all disc brake system with front and rear brakes both being disc and caliper type. Despite its amazing off-roading capabilities, it was so agile that it could achieve the 100kmph mark from standstill in just 12.5 seconds while clocking a top speed of 175kmph. Also, the ARAI certified fuel economy of XUV 500 is 15.1kmpl which is just awesome. It had radial tubeless tyres of size P235/65 R17 which were puncture-resistant. Did we forgot to mention the extravagant and life-saving safety features that come with this SUV? Well, the safety features are 6 Airbags, Hill hold control and Hill descent control, ABS, ESP etc. with this SUV to ensure the journey is safe and happy.
