Ahead of the unveiling of the Mahindra XUV 3XO on April 29th, the automaker has been releasing new teasers revealing fresh details of the facelifted XUV300 (now called the XUV 3XO). Mahindra has dropped yet another teaser for the XUV 3XO, this time briefly showing the connected car tech and climate controls of the SUV.
As seen in the video teaser, the Mahindra XUV 3XO will be equipped with connected car technology, allowing users to control the AC remotely with a smartphone. This feature will be particularly useful during extreme summers, where it will enable drivers to pre-cool the cabin before entering the car. The teaser also highlights the climate control settings displayed on the infotainment screen. We expect the XUV 3XO to retain the dual-zone AC from its outgoing version, the XUV300.

At the rear, Mahindra’s updated subcompact SUV will feature new connected LED taillights and a taller bumper design, flaunting the ‘XUV 3XO’ moniker on the tailgate.
The Mahindra XUV 3XO will likely get a new free-floating 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system borrowed from the Mahindra XUV400 EV. It will also get an updated dashboard design with revised central AC vents and centre console.
