The Mahindra XUV 700 or the Y400 SUV is soon going to stand as the new flagship product for the homegrown automaker in India. This 7-seater utility vehicle is based on the 2018 SsangYong Rexton and is likely to have Mahindra styling cues. Prices are estimated to start from INR 20 lakh.
Mahindra and Mahindra is currently working on a very aggressive strategy for the Indian car utility segment. The homegrown automaker has lined up several new products which it is going to launch in India within this fiscal year. Apart of this scheme is debuting an all-new, premium SUV which is going to take place at the flagship product for the company. Codenamed as the Y400, we expect this utility vehicle to be named as the XUV 700. Consequently, it will sit above the XUV 500. And hence, sport an estimated price tag of INR 20 lakh to 25 lakh. The Y400 is based on Mahindra owned SsangYong Rexton SUV. It will share its platform and other mechanical components with this vehicle. However, the company says that it will have its own design language and will have the aesthetics of a Mahindra.

Underpinning the 2018 Mahindra XUV 700 is a new body-on-frame chassis that comes from Ssangyong. The traditional construction should improve the ruggedness of the upcoming SUV. Images show that the new SUV borrows in plenty from the design study. Design elements like a bold shoulder-line and flared wheel arches give this model a really aggressive stance. The XUV 700 is likely to have a long wheelbase of 2,865 mm, which should translate to generous leg space. The upcoming SUV boasts of many modern safety and connectivity features. Powering the XUV700 will be a 2.2-litre, 4-cylinder, Turbo Diesel engine that is likely to come mated to 6-speed Manual and 7-speed Automatic transmissions.

Mahindra XUV 700 Design Review
The upcoming Mahindra SUV will be largely identical to the 2018 SsangYong Rexton you seen in the images we have. However, Mahindra’s designers will give the SUV their own styling touches. Expect a new grille up front, a new set of alloy wheels and, of course, Mahindra badging all around.
On the inside, the new SUV could feature a slightly different steering wheel design and different colour scheme. The 2018 SsangYong Rexton is based on the LIV-2 Concept that was on display at the 2016 Paris Motor Show. Much of the design stays true to the concept with the exception of the front grille and bumper, headlamps and alloy wheel design. The upcoming SUV from Mahindra-SsangYong will feature three rows of seats offering to seat for 6-7 occupants.
