KATHMANDU: Mahindra & Mahindra, India’s leading SUV manufacturer, has launched its flagship global SUV XUV700 in Nepal.
Mahindra has expressed its confidence that XUV700 is a great fit for consumers in Nepal, anticipating a rush like never before. The XUV700 has become the first Mahindra SUV in Nepal to come with the famed new identity – the twin-peaks logo. Outside India, Nepal is the second market after South Africa where the XUV700 has been launched.
In Nepal, the XUV700 comes in a petrol engine with manual and automatic options in five and seven-seater capacities.
The XUV700 is India’s most awarded car with a total of 31 awards including the prestigious Indian Car of the Year Award 2022, and endurance record breaker, covering 4,000 kilometres in 24 hours. The flagship SUV became the first Indian SUV to scale the highest motorable road —Umling La — in India.
Mahindra XUV700 is launched at an attractive price starting at Rs 7.4 million. The introductory price is applicable for one month from the launch with early delivery in February 2023.
XUV700 sets a new benchmark in the premium SUV segment of Nepal. Premium features aboard the SUV include a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system and cluster, a six-way powered driver seat and a class-leading music system with 12 Sony speakers. It also gets a panoramic sunroof and dual-zone climate control. Mahindra has also achieved a major milestone with the 5-star safety rating by GNCAP for adult protection and became the first made-in-India and owned brand to offer Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) as a safety option. With its sci-fi technology, spirited performance, and world-class safety, the XUV700 is engineered to dial up adrenaline like never before.
Mahindra launched the SUV through Agni Incorporated, reinforcing 30 years of association. Nepal is a big market for Mahindra with a big base of existing customers.
The XUV700 will be offered from the Twin Peaks branded SUV showroom, which has been curated to provide Nepali customers with a premium experience. Initially, the XUV700 will be offered from two Twin Peak-branded showrooms in Kathmandu. The Twin Peaks network will be expanded to five showrooms across Nepal by March 23, 2023. The new showroom has been designed to elevate the customer experience and bring in a new customer base for Mahindra.

Spirited Performance
The passionately engineered SUV brings the rush like never before with the 2.0mStallion Turbo-petrol engine at its heart – delivering exhilarating 147 kW power and 380 Nm of torque. The powerhouse is coupled with a smooth-shifting 6-speed manual & automatic transmission system, offering effortless and thrilling drive experience.
Tough yet sophisticated High stability and unparalleled dynamic capabilities come from the all-independent suspension setup developed with multiple terrains in mind. XUV700 offers best-in-class performance through multi-link suspension with stabiliser bar & FSD (Frequency Selective Damping) technology. While superior ride comfort is guaranteed, it also provides unparalleled dynamic capabilities in tune with the performance on offer.
Unmissable presence The XUV700 packs an unmissable presence, including a striking front grille with the new Twin Peaks logo, wide track length and authentic SUV stance hints high-performance ability of the SUV. A first-in-segment feature – ‘Smart door handles’, prominent wheel haunches above the wheel arches, and LED Clear-view Headlamps with Automatic Boosting reinforces the sporty stance.
Sci-fi Technology An immersive drive experience draws from a combination of features inside. Immersive 12-speaker 3D sound experience by SONY along with wireless charging and fully automatic electronic door handles treats customers with delight. Topping the XUV700 range, comes Mahindra’s SkyroofTM which creates an airy and light cabin ambience.
World Class Safety Safety is one of the core pillars of XUV700 experience. Winner of the ‘Safer Choice’ award from Global NCAP in 2021 - the XUV700 was crash tested in November 2021 and secured a full 5-star rating for adult occupant protection and four stars for child occupation protection.

The newest generation stability control is standard in all variants. Automatic headlamps with High Beam Assist dynamically adjust the illumination of dark areas on the road, without blinding oncoming traffic.
