To create the next generation of SUVs, you have to advance past the status quo. Probably that's why the XUV500 lets you discover features that most other cars have yet to. The vehicle is technology exemplified at its luxurious best. The XUV500's authoritative exterior promises unbridled excitement and the technology bundle ensures that the performance lives up to the promise.
All Wheel Drive (AWD)
6-Speed Transmission
mHawk Engine
Monocoque construction
Suspension
Dual Mass Flywheel
Intelligent All Wheel Drive technology developed by Borg Warner ensures you are always in control of the vehicle, be it slippery surfaces, heavy rain, snow or even ice. Experience a seamless transition from 2WD to AWD without any driver intervention. The AWD is further fortified with NexTracTM. NexTracTM is the next generation, electronically controlled, on-demand Interactive Torque Mangement system. When required, it assumes control of the clutch and other vehicle systems. NexTracTM automatically controls vehicle systems like Engine Management System, Steering Angle Sensor and Anti-lock Braking System, and automatically redistributes torque between front and rear wheels.
The XUV500 hosts the first 6-speed transmission fully developed and tested in India. The 6 speeds enable two overdrives which help in optimum engine torque and speed resulting better fuel economy and acceleration. The self-adjusting clutch ensures that the pedal effort of a brand new and fully worn out clutch remains the same, giving a pleasurable drive over the life of the clutch.
The 2.2 litre mHawk140 engine delivers an impressive output of 140bhp and a torque of 330Nm. It sports the 5th generation variable geometry turbocharger which ensures instantaneous acceleration, taking the XUV500 from 0-60kmph in a mere 5.4 seconds.
Just step on the pedal and watch the scenery blur. Despite all this power, the XUV500 gives you an excellent efficiency of 15.1kmpl (ARAI)
This is the essence of the XUV500's uncompromised driving dynamics. The monocoque construction is found only in the most modern SUV's around the world. Here, the XUV500's body and platform are integrated into a single unit. The result is an excellent power to weight ratio, dream-like handling and undiluted driving pleasure. The XUV500 is also the country's first indigenously developed monocoque SUV with the first transverse engine offering from Mahindra.
The XUV500's sporty roots are complimented by its sporty suspension setup that delivers excellent ride and handling. The XUV500 has a McPherson strut suspension at the front and an independent multi-link suspension at the rear which has been tuned in collaboration with Lotus, one of the world's most renowned names in motor sports.
The DMF reduces engine noise, vibration and harshness significantly and delivers a comfortable and smooth gear shift feel. This makes the XUV500 powertrain one of the most refined in the market.

The advanced Micro Hybrid technology helps conserve both nature and fuel. It automatically puts the engine into standby mode 2.5 seconds after you shift the gear into neutral at a signal or in bumper-to-bumper traffic. When you step on the clutch, the vehicle roars to life immediately giving you higher efficiency and lower CO2 emissions.
The Tyre Pressure Monitoring System monitors the air pressure inside the tyres and aids in achieving optimal fuel efficiency, better maneuvering and braking ability. The system will provide alerts in case of low air pressure, high air pressure and air leakage from any of the tyres. The Tyre Pressure Monitoring System continues to provide an alert until the problem is rectified.
Advanced sensors detect rain and automatically turn the wipers on or off. They even control the wiper speed according to the intensity of rain. The headlamps go on or off according to the ambient light conditions ensuring those dark tunnels don't leave you blinded. These features make your life simpler and ensure that you thoroughly enjoy the drive experience.
The RPAS offers audio and visual warnings of the obstacles in the rear if the vehicle comes within 120cms of any obstacle on the infotainment system screen. You can also install a rear-view camera on the XUV500 to show you a view of the vehicle's rear while parking. Now, like driving, parking the XUV500 too is a breeze.
A full-fledged, integrated DIS diligently reports all vital information about the car. It tells you how far the existing amount of fuel can take you. It monitors the air pressure and temperature of each tyre. It even controls the cabin temperature for you.
The XUV500 boasts of a fully loaded GPS navigation system, which covers over 1.5 million kilometres of road across 1200 cities with a turn-by-turn voice guidance system in English, Hindi and eight regional languages. The system also gives the driver access to over 5 million touch points of interest including restaurants, ATMs, fuel pumps and movie theatres.

Few vehicles are as well-equipped as the XUV500 to keep you out of harm's way. The vehicle comes with an array of safety features that make it a veritable fortress. The vehicle has at the heart of its fortification an efficient Electronic Stability Program (ESP). This coupled with features like Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Electronic brake-force Distribution (EBD), Rollover Mitigation and Traction Control make the XUV500 one of the safest vehicles on the road.
6 Air Bags
Hill Hold & Descent Control
ESP
ABS
All 4 Wheel Disc Brakes
ABS with EBD reduces braking distance substantially and enhances the safety of the driver and passengers. EBD ensures that based on the rate of deceleration during braking, the brake force is varied such that the rear wheels never lock preventing the vehicle from going into a spin. The force is varied between front and rear based on wheel reaction and rate of deceleration. The Hydraulic Brake Assist system applies maximum braking force in the shortest possible time during emergency braking, thus aiding you in bringing the vehicle to a standstill quicker.
Hill Hold control prevents the vehicle from rolling backwards when starting from a standstill on an incline, while Hill Descent control identifies steep inclines and engages itself to assist the vehicle down the slope with caution.
The ESP is always on high alert and constantly monitors the movement and direction of the car. When it detects loss of control, brakes are automatically applied and torque to the relevant wheel is reduced till vehicle stability is restored. Rollover Mitigation identifies potentially dangerous driving conditions that could lead to the vehicle rolling over. Well before the situation becomes threatening, it causes the ESP system to intervene and control the vehicle speed, thereby restoring stability. Rest assured, the only thing that'll go out of control is your heartbeat!
Six airbags reinforce the safety of the vehicle. Driver and passenger airbags, side airbags and curtain airbags cocoon you.
The XUV500 is equipped with disc brakes on all four wheels. The key advantages of disc brakes include lower pedal travel, which results in a better pedal feel, and high thermal dissipation, which results in lower fade of braking at high speeds and repeated braking situations. The benefit of all four wheels being equipped with disc brakes is a lower variation in brake performance between left hand and right hand brake assemblies. This results in better vehicle stability while braking, and a consistency in brake performance, which results in optimizing and improved ABS and ESP performance. Also, the Integral Parking Brake Calipers on rear ensure lower parking brake lever efforts. Hence, all four disc brakes aid in achieving reduced stopping distance and improved vehicle stability during braking.
