Everything else, including the looks, interior and features have remained unchanged. The equipment pool include projector headlamps with LED daytime running lamps, sunroof, 7-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, tyre pressure monitoring system, 6-way power adjustable driver seat, tilt and telescopic steering, six airbags, cruise control, ABS with EBD, hill hold and descent control.
The XUV500 is expected to get a generation change by the end of this year or early 2021. It will be based on the Mahindra Funster concept showcased at Auto Expo 2020. For now, the XUV500 will continue its rivalry with the Tata Harrier, MG Hector, Jeep Compass, Kia Seltos and the Hyundai Creta.
