Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd, market leader in utility vehicles, on Tuesday unveiled the eagerly awaited Mahindra XYLO at its Nashik plant.
The XYLO is perhaps the most complete car with luxury comforts to enter the Indian market with everything that today's sedans offer and much more.
Available at 57 select Mahindra dealerships in January and another 44 dealerships from February, the base model of XYLO is priced at Rs 624,500.
"With the launch of the Mahindra XYLO, the era of sedans is under serious threat! The famed Mahindra DNA of 'tough & rugged' meets an unprecedented level of sophistication and luxurious comfort in the XYLO. The XYLO is the 'Great Indian Traveling Machine' and will redefine the future of road travel in India," said Anand Mahindra, vice chairman and managing director, Mahindra Group.
"The Mahindra XYLO is perhaps the first vehicle in the country which has been completely engineered around the customer. The powerful 2.49 litre mEagle CRDe engine is fuel-efficient and delivers 112 bhp, allowing you to literally fly from 0-60 kmph in just 5.8 seconds.
Moreover, the Mahindra XYLO offers class-defining lavish space all around such that even a 6ft tall person can stretch in comfort on the 3rd row seat. The XYLO offers an extraordinary level of luxurious comfort at a very cost-effective price for prospective sedan buyers," said Pawan Goenka, president, automotive sector, Mahindra & Mahindra.
Xylo's unique features:
XYLO is available in four exciting variants and eight elegant shades including Fiery Black, Mist Silver, Mint Green, Lucky Lilac, Gold Shimmer, Toreador Red, Java Brown and Rocky Beige.
All XYLO variants conform to stringent BS III emission norms.
