Driving the Mahindra XUV 3XO for a week recently turned out to be a whole lot of fun and a lovely surprise for my two sons.
As it was school holidays, my two sons Aaran and Aarav got the chance to jump in with Dad, seeing also that it was the perfect vehicle to get around in.
It’s packed with features and was loved by my boys. The drive is smooth, effortless, safe and enjoyable with no compromise.
I received the vehicle on a special occasion, it coinciding with Aaran’s birthday.
When I got home both Aaran and his younger brother Aarav were surprised and thought I had purchased a new ride.
Unfortunately it was not the case, but who knows, maybe one day.
I had forgotten to buy birthday candles, so off we went in the Mahindra to Shelly Beach, great excitement filling the air.
The 3XO is bold and commands attention. It certainly did not disappoint, attracting attention and admiring glances. Or maybe it was three handsome guys? (Jokes).
From the exterior to the interior, it is a perfectly balanced, subcompact SUV.
It features a distinctive front grille and headlamp design with a piano black finish on the grille and LED headlamps, and LED fog lamps.
At the forefront of automotive technology, this vehicle is on par with any other in the same category.
It has it all – from the HD screens to wireless Android Auto and Apple Carplay. It’s also pretty light on the pocket, considering it has all the bells and whistles and a sunroof as well.
The XUV 3XO is powered by a 1.2l turbo-petrol engine that is designed for good performance and superior efficiency. It delivers 82kW and 200Nm of torque and offers exceptionally low fuel consumption.
Overall, it’s an excellent SUV to manoeuvre in traffic.
