Mahindra XUV300 is already a very popular car among the urban buyers in the compact SUV segment. It has proved its mettle in the most competitive segment in the country. The reasons are actually very simple. The strikingly modern looks, a ton of modern comfort features, powerful engines and a 5-star safety rating. All this combine to give a wholesome product which is not easy to fault. The only concern seems to be an exceptionally small boot for a car of this segment. That hampers the practicality a bit. But if can compromise on that front, you have a complete package in XUV300. To add to the convenience aspect, Mahindra has introduced automatic transmission to petrol and diesel powertrains as well. Now driving in the city traffic will be easier than ever before. Also, Mahindra has introduced its very own connected technology, BlueSense Plus with over 40 features. Let us take a look at what are the features included in that.

Both these engines now come mated to either a 6-speed manual or an automatic gearbox. Also worth mentioning here is that the new Sportz variant of the XUV300 is due for launch very soon. This variant will come with a more powerful turbo petrol engine with direct injection technology. Also, knowing the sensibilities and preferences of young Indian buyers, Mahindra is offering the Electric Sunroof starting from the mid-trim W6 onwards. The AutoShift W6 variant with sunroof starts at a cool Rs 9.95 lakh, ex-showroom.
