With a starting price of Rs 7.49 lakh, the new model brings freshness to the compact SUV category with its updated design, advanced features, safety technology, and a new transmission choice.

Meanwhile, the turbo-petrol models also post impressive figures, with the manual transmission (MT) variant achieving up to 20.1km/l. When compared to its rivals, the XUV 3XO showcases competitive fuel efficiency.
The Tata Nexon, however, leads in the diesel AT category with a mileage of 24.08km/l. In the petrol sector, the Maruti Suzuki Fronx takes the crown with a 22.89km/l rating for its automatic variant, closely followed by the Toyota Taisor and other competitors.
