Mahindra recently announced that it will pass on the full benefits of GST 2.0 to its customers. Following this announcement, the company’s popular SUV, the Mahindra XUV700, has now become more affordable than ever. If you’re planning to purchase this luxury vehicle soon, it’s important to know how much cheaper it has become after the GST reduction.
A Huge Price Drop
Previously, large vehicles longer than 4 meters and with engines larger than 1500cc were taxed at 48%, which included 28% GST and 22% cess. However, this tax has now been reduced to 40%. This change is directly benefiting vehicles like the Mahindra XUV700, with a significant price reduction.
The Mahindra XUV700 is now receiving discounts ranging from ₹88,900 to ₹1.43 lakh.
XUV700 MX variant: Savings of ₹88,900.
AX3 variant: Expected price reduction of ₹1.06 lakh.
AX5 S variant: Now cheaper by ₹1.10 lakh.
The biggest discount is on the top-spec AX7 L variant, which is available with a discount of up to ₹1.43 lakh.
This reduction makes the XUV700 a very attractive and value-for-money option in its segment.
Powerful Engine and Mileage
The Mahindra XUV700 comes with two powerful engine options:
2.0-liter turbocharged petrol engine: It produces 197 bhp and 380 Nm of torque.
2.2-liter mHawk diesel engine: It produces 182 bhp and 420 Nm of torque.
Both engines are available with 6-speed manual and automatic gearboxes. Top variants also offer AWD (all-wheel drive). In terms of fuel economy, the petrol variant delivers 8.5 kmpl in the city and 11 kmpl on the highway, while the diesel variant delivers an impressive 13.5 kmpl in the city and 16.5-18.5 kmpl on the highway.

The GST reduction has made this deal even more beneficial for customers, making it easier than ever to own a luxury SUV.
