Mahindra XUV 500 : Exclusive Photo Feature!
Posted on 28 Sep 20112,334,462 Views235 Comments
Coming our way from the country's leading UV maker Mahindra & Mahindra is this new age, new wave soft-roader, the XUV500 (XUV - Five Double O). The new Mahindra is no softie, keeping in sync with its maker's reputation for the rugged, but in this new baby rugged melds with style and the concoction of the two is deadly delicious! Not many details and information can be divulged right now but our pictures of the car speak louder than words. Adil Jal Darukhanawala lends commentary to Kunal Khadse's photo-artistry
Headliner incorporates many welcome features including interior lighting which is by LEDs, a goggle holder in one flap while another one incorporates a fish-eye mirror giving the driver unimpeded rear vision from pillar to pillar!
Large double decker glove box on the dashboard is just one among a myriad of cubby holes and bottle holders which abound in the cabin. The manner in which the door pads meld with the dashboard provides a fine continuous sweep of line to the interior which is pleasing to behold.
Both front seats have built in lumbar support and the seat backs have netted sections for mags and maps. Nice touch this but the arm rests, for the driver at least, do impede gear shifting. Maybe a repositioning in height could solve this glitch.
Steering wheel is a nice meaty affair and very sporty in its design and feel. A large central pad dominates the senses and the two tiny side stalks also provide the base for the multi-function switches for phone and audio volume on the left along with cruise control settings on the right.

I m indeed impressed with the exhaustive and lucrative technical specifications of XUV 500. It has indeed succeeded in giving a tough and breathholding fight to its competitors mainly the TATA safari storme and tata aria. I congratulate the entire team of mahindra on their innovative and value for money invention. Well done.
