Mahindra dealers have also confirmed that the waiting period of the XUV300 compact-SUV has now risen to three weeks. The Mahindra XUV300 is available in a range of four trims and eight variants — W4, W6, W8 and W8 OPT; each with two engine configurations.
The Mahindra XUV300 is powered by a 1.2-litre turbo-petrol and 1.5-litre diesel engine units.

Veejay Ram Nakra, Chief of Sales & Marketing, Automotive Division, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd, stated:
"We are extremely happy with the overwhelming response to the XUV300. In a highly competitive segment such as the Compact SUV, we have received over 13,000 bookings and in the very first month itself, we have entered into the top 3. This is in-line with our objective of achieving 15 to 20% share of this segment and reaffirms the fact that the XUV300 proposition has resonated well with the customers. What is also encouraging is that over 75% of our bookings are for the top end variants of the XUV300."
