Made-in-India Mahindra XUV700 SUV goes on sale in New Zealand
- The Mahindra XUV700 is priced from $36,990 to $43,990 (approx. ₹19 lakh to ₹22.60 lakh) and is offered in three variants - AX5, AX7 and AX7 L.
Indian auto giant Mahindra has launched the XUV700 SUV in the New Zealand market. The Mahindra XUV700 is the brand’s flagship offering globally and is priced from $36,990 to $43,990 (approx. ₹19 lakh to ₹22.60 lakh). The SUV is offered in three variants - AX5, AX7 and AX7 L. The XUV700 is made in India and exported to New Zealand, among other countries including South Africa.
The launch of the Mahindra XUV700 marks a fresh start for the brand in New Zealand, considering it did not bring new products to the market in recent years. The XUV700’s launch was also delayed owing to supply chain constraints. Considering the high waiting period in India itself, the delay isn’t surprising.
