Mahindra, the top automaker, has introduced the Black Edition trim to the XU700 lineup. In India, the base model costs Rs 24.24 lakh (ex-showroom), while the top model costs Rs 26.04 lakh (ex-showroom). The unit was released at this pricing.
The company started taking official reservations, so interested parties may now reserve the car in advance. Reservations can be made in person at an approved showroom or online at the official website.
What’s New?
The Black Edition is built around the AX7 L trim and has a few small external and interior visual upgrades. From the outside, it adopts the same aggressive stance, complete with an LED headlamp configuration, LED DRLs, and fashionable fog lamps.
The manufacturer added ORVMs, blacked-out 18-inch alloy dark alloy wheels, and the iconic huge black finish grille to the front. Customers can now distinguish between special and normal trims thanks to the addition of “Blaze” badging on the trim’s front door and tailgate, which helps it stand out from the crowd.
