Launched in 2009, the Xylo soon became one the top-selling Mahindra cars in India. Though the its sales started dropping later on due to rising competition in the segment. So to remain in competition, Mahindra updated the MUV (Multi Utility Vehicle) in 2012 and 2014. The new model received few exterior and interior updates and a tweaked suspension for better ride quality. The MUV got new chrome strip on the hood, roof rails, new alloys, new body decals, revised tail gate with chrome garnish and slightly modified tail lights. The interior is now more comfortable, feature-rich and premium. It sports new dual-tone (black and beige) dashboard, new leather upholstery, revised instrument cluster, 2-DIN audio system with Bluetooth connectivity and steering mounted audio and cruise controls. Powering the MUV is the same 118bhp, 2.2-litre mHawk diesel unit and 93.7bhp, 2.5-litre mDI CRDe diesel engine. A 5-speed manual gearbox is the only available option. It’s one of the most fuel efficient Mahindra cars in India. The ride quality is improved, thanks to the tweaked suspension. Though, the significant body roll affects its handling, though, it’s quite predictable.
