Mahindra is always excited to bring in the limited edition to market after every interval. Now, it’s time for the Cheetah inspired XUV500 of Mahindra to get assorted.
Launched the limited edition ‘XUV500 Sportz’ based on the top-end variant W8 (FWD), the limited edition model is priced at Rs 13.68 Lakh (Ex-showroom Mumbai), which is approximately Rs 30-40k costlier than the outgoing W8 (FWD).
On the note of being limited, it is said only 1000 units of it are going to be made, which will be featured with the following nip and tucks:
- Unique Alloy Wheels with signature red inserts
- Convenient rear-view Camera
- Sporty Leather-Fabric Seats
- Fog lamps & door handles with red accents
- Stylized roof rails in red
- ‘Sportz’ badging
Speaking on the launch of the ‘XUV500 Sportz’, Vivek Nayer, Chief Marketing Officer, Automotive Division, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. said, “We are pleased to introduce the limited edition ‘XUV500 Sportz’ for discerning customers. The Mahindra XUV500, with its winning combination of aspirational styling, advanced technology & safety features, comfort & convenience has already created an impact in the hearts & minds of consumers. This new offering of ‘XUV500 Sportz’ aligns with our leadership position in Indian motor sports & rallying and reflects our ‘Sporty’ DNA very well. We believe that it will create a new benchmark in exclusivity to further enhance the XUV500’s appeal amongst customers.”
Hence, there are no mechanical changes made. The same 2.2-litre mHawk diesel engine of 140bhp (103Kw) and 330Nm torque is mated to a 6-speed manual transmission.
