The XUV 700 was launched back on August 14, 2021.Since its launch, the SUV has been a huge success and the demand is rising every day. The top-of-the-line AX7 L still demands a waiting period of up to 5 to 6 months. To commemorate this the company also announced the launch of two new colour options – Deep Forest and Burnt Sienna.
So why is the XUV 700 so popular and in such demand? The XUV 700 is a value-for-money offering and gets smart looks with a good road presence. Mainly, it offers so many premium features such as Level-1 ADAS, twin digital screens for the instrument cluster and infotainment system, panoramic sunroof, 360-degree camera, dual-zone climate control, electrically adjustable driver’s seat, panoramic sunroof, LED headlamps, ventilated seats, seven airbags, leatherette seat upholstery, 3D sound system with 12 speakers and many more.
The SUV doesn’t just get good features, it is safe too. The XUV 700 was crash-tested by GNCAP and it achieved a 5-star rating for adult protection and a 4-star rating for child occupant protection. The XUV 700 is offered with two engine options – a 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder, turbocharged petrol engine that puts out 200hp of power and 380Nm of torque. Gearbox options include a 6-speed manual and a 6-speed torque converter automatic.
