The new XUV700 Javelin Edition honours the Olympic gold medalists with a special paint livery. The car adorns a golden hue which can be found on the front vertical grille slats, rear decals, and also on the brand logo. Inside, the car features a similar golden treatment that gels well with its exterior golden theme. Save for the changes to the aesthetics, the rest of the details remain unchanged.
