Mahindra has just dropped the XUV 3XO RevX series in India, starting at Rs. 8.94 lakh (ex-showroom). This new trim line adds a sporty edge and extra features to the subcompact SUV, making it a tempting pick in a crowded segment. With three variants—RevX M, RevX M(O), and RevX A—priced up to Rs. 12.99 lakh, the RevX series brings premium touches without breaking the bank. Here’s a breakdown of what sets it apart from the standard XUV 3XO.
Exterior Styling Upgrades
The RevX series gives the XUV 3XO a bolder, more distinctive look, perfect for those who want to stand out.
Subtle Yet Sporty Design Tweaks
The RevX variants sport a body-colored grille instead of the standard black one, paired with blacked-out 16-inch wheels—steel with covers on RevX M and M(O), and alloys on RevX A. RevX badges add a unique flair, and all variants come with a dual-tone paint scheme as standard. Choose from five colors: Tango Red, Everest White, and Galaxy Grey with a black roof, or Nebula Blue and Stealth Black with a grey roof. These tweaks give the RevX a sportier vibe while keeping the core XUV 3XO design intact.
Interior Enhancements
Step inside, and the RevX series feels a notch above the standard model with thoughtful upgrades.
Premium Cabin Ambiance
All RevX trims feature black leatherette upholstery, creating a sleek, dual-tone cabin that feels more upscale. The RevX M adds driver’s seat height adjustment, adjustable headrests for all rear passengers, and a rear armrest with cup holders over the MX2 base. The RevX M(O) steps it up with a single-pane sunroof, while the RevX A goes big with a panoramic sunroof, a rare feature at this price point. The RevX A also inherits the AX5’s goodies like a 10.25-inch digital driver display, wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, and dual-zone climate control.
Powertrain Options
The RevX series is petrol-only, offering two engine choices to suit different driving styles.
Engines and Performance
The RevX M and M(O) are powered by a 1.2-liter turbo-petrol engine (TCMPFi) producing 110 hp and 200 Nm, paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox. The RevX A gets the punchier 1.2-liter TGDi turbo-petrol engine, delivering 129 hp and 230 Nm, with options for a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission. This makes the TGDi engine more accessible, as it was previously only available from the pricier AX5L trim, now lowered by about Rs. 83,000.
Feature-Packed and Value-Driven
The RevX series borrows features from higher trims, making it a compelling value proposition.
Added Features for Comfort and Safety
The RevX M builds on the MX2’s 10.25-inch infotainment screen and 4-speaker audio with extras like keyless entry and follow-me-home headlamps. The RevX A matches the AX5’s kit, adding 6 speakers, auto headlamps/wipers, and a rearview camera. Safety remains solid with six airbags, ESC, hill-hold control, and all-wheel disc brakes across all variants. However, features like Level 2 ADAS and a 360-degree camera are reserved for higher trims like the AX5L.
Pricing and Competition
The RevX series is priced competitively: RevX M at Rs. 8.94 lakh, RevX M(O) at Rs. 9.44 lakh, RevX A at Rs. 11.79 lakh (manual), and Rs. 12.99 lakh (automatic). It rivals the Tata Nexon, Kia Sonet, Hyundai Venue, and Maruti Suzuki Brezza, offering a strong mix of style, tech, and performance.
