The Mahindra XUV 3XO’s second-from-base MX2 trim commands a premium of up to Rs 2.5 lakh over the base-spec MX1. Mahindra has equipped it with some useful features over the MX1 to justify the price jump. The MX2 trim also gets a ‘Pro’ variant, which comes with some additional features over the regular MX2. Let’s see if you should take the plunge to consider the MX2 trim over the MX1:

Next Variants (Petrol/Diesel): MX3/MX3 Pro
If you want a more loaded petrol variant of the XUV 3XO, the next choice is of the MX3 or the MX3 Pro trims, both priced at a premium of Rs 50,000 over their respective previous variant. The MX3 and MX3 Pro also get an automatic gearbox option, commanding a premium of Rs 1.5 lakh over their corresponding manual counterpart.
Similarly, the diesel engine is also available in the MX3 and MX3 Pro variants. However, only the MX3 variant gets the option of the 6-speed AMT automatic, costing Rs 80,000 more than its manual.
Why Consider The XUV 3XO MX2/ MX2 Pro?
Consider this variant for the factory-fitted 10.25-inch touchscreen and 4-speaker music system — especially if you do not prefer aftermarket additions. Moreover, if you pick the MX2 Pro variant, you additionally get a single-pane sunroof and full wheel covers, both of which enhance its visual appeal.

Why Skip The XUV 3XO MX2/ MX2 Pro?
It makes sense to skip the MX2 or MX2 Pro variants if you are someone who likes their car to have a bit more visual personality, thanks to the provision of full or stylised (on MX3 Pro) wheel covers, along with all-LED lighting (only on MX3 Pro as well).
Also, the MX3 and MX3 Pro variants get more tech, in the form of an HD touchscreen, a sunroof, and even wireless smartphone connectivity (only for Android Auto). If you are someone who wants the entry-level diesel-auto option with the Mahindra XUV 3XO, the MX3 is the only choice.

Buy it only if on a budget. Else, stretch to the next MX2 variant for more features as well as diesel and automatic gearbox options. |

MX2 |
MX2 Pro |
Only pick if you desire a handful of new features over the base. It’s the true entry-level variant if you want a diesel-manual option on a budget. |

Our recommended variant. Gets most of the bells and whistles for the price, along with the choice of petrol and diesel powertrains with automatic gearbox options. |
Consider only if you want an AX5 with ADAS, a 360-degree camera, and an electronic parking brake with auto-hold. |

AX7 |
AX7 L |
