No, the Mahindra XUV700 as a whole model has not been discontinued. However, specific configurations of the vehicle, namely its 6-seater variants, have been silently discontinued in India.
Initially, the XUV700 was launched without a 6-seater option. The captain seat variants were introduced earlier in the year but have since been removed from the lineup. This means that while the XUV700 continues to be available for purchase, customers will no longer find the 6-seater configuration with captain seats in the rear.
Current Status of Mahindra XUV700
The Mahindra XUV700 remains an active and popular model in the Indian market, available in various other seating configurations (primarily 5-seater and 7-seater options). The discontinuation applies only to the specific 6-seater variant that featured captain seats in the middle row.
Here's a quick overview of the status:
Model Segment | Status | Details |
---|---|---|
Mahindra XUV700 | Active | The overall model line, including its 5-seater and 7-seater configurations, continues to be produced and sold. |
XUV700 6-seater variants | Discontinued | Mahindra has silently ceased production and sales of these specific variants which featured captain seats in the second row. For more details, refer to this discussion on the XUV700 6-seater variants discontinuation. |
This strategic decision allows Mahindra to streamline its production and focus on the more popular 5-seater and 7-seater configurations of the XUV700, which continue to attract significant demand.
