However, the XUV 3XO marks a positive shift for Mahindra, boasting an appealing design, class-leading performance, and aggressive pricing.

What is the Price of the Mahindra XUV 3XO in Nepal?

Mahindra XUV 3XO price in Nepal starts from Rs. 60.90 Lakhs to Rs. 66.65 Lakhs.

Talking about the variants, the XUV 3XO will be available in the top variant i.e. the AX7 and further in the 6-Speed Manual as well as the 6-Speed Automatic Transmission options.

The official launch and sales is expected to be in the upcoming NADA Auto Show 2024.

Let’s take a look at key specifications of the Mahindra XUV 3XO in Nepal for 2024.

Mahindra XUV 3XO Overview

Design

Starting from the front, the Mahindra XUV 3XO features large, vertically oriented headlights outlined by C-shaped DRLs.

The LED headlights are split into two sections, with an enclosed projector lamp at the top and an open projector lamp at the bottom, all encased in a sleek black accent.

The headlights flank the front grille, which spans the width of the 3XO and showcases the Mahindra logo and chrome teeth.

The bumper exhibits pronounced cuts and creases, adding to the vehicle’s aggressive appearance. Additionally, the contoured bonnet contributes to the muscular look of the car from the front.

From the side, the short overhangs of the Mahindra XUV 3XO emphasize its compact and sporty design.

The blacked-out roof and pillars contrast beautifully with the vibrant body color, creating a striking floating roof effect. The stylish 17-inch Diamond Cut Alloy wheels enhance the car’s visual appeal from the side, further complementing its dynamic profile.

At the rear, the XUV 3XO features a tailgate with clean lines, adorned with the XUV 3XO branding.

With the XUV 3XO, Mahindra will be a popular option in the sub-compact SUV segment. To talk about competition, Hyundai Creta is a formidable contender.

In terms of pricing, the Creta ranges between Rs. 48.56 Lakhs and Rs. 77.56 Lakhs, offering 1.5L Petrol and 1.5L Diesel engines.

However, the XUV 3XO is priced between Rs. 60.90 Lakhs and Rs. 66.65 Lakhs and features a 1.2L turbocharged engine.

While the Creta provides daily-use features such as a larger boot space, ventilated seats, and paddle shifters, the XUV 3XO stands out with competitive features like a 5-star NCAP rating and advanced technology, all at a lower price than the Creta.

Mahindra has definitely upped their game with the new XUV 3XO. However, it remains to be seen how it performs against the leading SUV of Nepal, the Hyundai Creta.
