Rough delivery timelines in Bangalore is in range of 4 weeks as of last weekend, so don't think it should be significantly different in Hyderabad too. Mostly they are not having stock the color + variant that you want to, hence pushing to switch to another color / variant.

Long-story short.
I booked XUV 3XO at two place and its 4 months no update on delivery date. Want to stretch the budget (almost double ) and go for XUV 700.

I will be jubilant if they can deliver in 20 days

Which dealers did you try? I didn't have a good experience with AMPL,

I went with Khivrajkamal Motors, Ambattur industrial estate.

Ask for Ms Mehartaj, she's the DGM Sales over there and very helpful. You can DM me for details.

I don't see an option to send private message. Apologise for that.

Could you please share Khivraj details.

I pushed him and told him we need the vehicle by end of September.
Anyways, is anyone else hearing of any slowdown from Mahindra or any other delays?

You can ping Mahindra customer care directly to check on this. In Bangalore max of 4wks is being quoted and that too for me with AWD. FWD was offered me readily within a day.

Hey there, did you get delivery of your car yet? and any more info on tire swap.

I did some market research in whitefield area on tire options. Both Michelin Primacy SUV+ and Conti SC5 are available at around ~16K per tire. For the new OEM tires I was given a ballpark figure of ~6K per tire. Will check few more places and decide. Contis had 2yr unconditional warranty which is not available for Michelin.

I got my car this week. I got a similar quote for Michelin Primacy SUV+. The OEM buy back value was 6K for Ceat/Apollo and 8-9k for Bridgestone. I contacted Millivisions Bangalore. Based on some research, I had decided to swap the tyres if I got anything other than Bridgestone. However, my car (AX7L D AT AWD) came with Bridgestone tyres, so I decided to stick to OEM tyres. Michelin is better, but I read positive things about Ecopia, happy with the ride quality so far, and it doesn’t justify additional spending 30k for me. Ill spend it on other accessories.

Re: Mahindra XUV700 Review

I just completed 2 years and 25k KMs with my XUV700 AX7 Diesel AT. Suddenly one fine morning, the reverse parking sensors conked off and the car sounds a loud beep when put in Reverse. The MID shows two cross marks where it used to show the distance to object. Reverse camera works fine.

I am yet to take it to service center for diagnosis but hoping that this will be covered under warranty. Anyone has similar experience?

Re: Mahindra XUV700 Review

It seems Khivraj has taken over the erstwhile Zulaikha dealership as Zulaikha seems to have been making losses, which is surprising with the kind of patronage for the M&M cars

I am using the recorded voice message function to remind me every time I start the car to

1. Engage ZIP MODE
2. Disengage Auto start-stop

Re: Mahindra XUV700 Review

Hello All,

My AX7L AWD got delivered on the 5th of September. Totally in love with the car and just looking for occasions to take her out. Too many features and settings to play with every time you go for drive.
Few observations:
1. It is a delight to drive, no doubt. This is made for mile munching. You feel you have reached the destination too soon.
2. The pull from the red signals brings a smile to your face.
3. Brakes are noisy. Right from the time i took it out of the showroom. Be it auto hold release, EPB release or general braking.
4. There is a faint sound in the back when you brake strongly. I guess it is the football in the boot phenomena all are talking about.
5. There is dug dug in the suspension. Although not at all annoying for me. They are just doing their work. The ride is super smooth.
6. Power windows work even when the car is totally switched off. Something which my present car doesnt have.

All in all, dont mind the minor quirks at all and totally enjoying the experience till now. Waiting for a long drive soon! Attaching a photo.

Thank you all for helping me in my purchase decision. Cheers!

Same pinch buddy. I got mine on 5th August. It's a beast to drive. Just a week back I did Bengaluru-Chennai round trip. Tested the ADAS for almost 80 kms on 80 kmph. Worked flawlessly. Wish you umpteen happy and safe miles.

I have opted for the Qubo 3K Pro dual channel dash cam and got it hard wired to the fuse box. The camera has a decent quality, is non intrusive and control via the app is pretty good.

Have not decided on the spare wheel as yet.
I am toying with the idea of installing a dasham on my car for a long time, I was considering 70Mai A510 dual channel which has a Sony Starviz 2 sensor.

What is your experience with the Qubo specially the hardwiring, does it void the warranty.
