Within the test convoy, the base iteration of the upcoming XUV300 was observed with scant camouflage on both the front and rear profile. Noteworthy features included steel wheels adorned with conventional wheel covers and unpainted ORVMs. Despite its entry-level tag, Mahindra maintains a sophisticated look by incorporating blackened pillars. This would become a better option for those seeking an economical yet stylish SUV option.
On the other hand, the premium variant highlights an array of upscale amenities. It boasts dual-tone alloy wheels, similar to the Mahindra's current offerings. Notable upgrades include a larger, freestanding touchscreen infotainment system and a fully digital instrument cluster.

However, rumours suggest that the upgraded model will include the Aisin-sourced 6-speed torque converter automatic transmission.
