Mahindra Renames XUV700 as XUV 7XO, Sets Global Debut for January 5, 2026

The facelift underscores Mahindra’s XO naming shift and previews a tech‑forward cabin with XEV 9S‑inspired styling, with prices to be disclosed at the unveiling.

Overview

  • An official teaser confirms the XUV 7XO name and a global reveal on January 5, 2026, marking a mid‑cycle relaunch of Mahindra’s three‑row SUV.
  • The cabin is expected to feature a triple‑screen layout plus premium touches such as a Harman Kardon audio system and soft‑touch materials, based on spy shots and reports.
  • Teaser visuals show dual‑pod headlamps with inverted L‑shaped DRLs, revised tail‑lamp signatures linked by a light bar, and a refreshed grille influenced by the XEV 9S.
  • Existing powertrains are likely to continue: 2.0‑litre turbo‑petrol and 2.2‑litre turbo‑diesel with 6‑speed manual or automatic options, with AWD expected on select diesel variants.
  • Mahindra plans to announce prices at the debut, with bookings and test drives to follow, and some reports indicate XUV700 production will cease once the 7XO arrives.
