Mahindra XUV700 Ebony edition debuts in India: From stealth black looks to price – 5 things to know

Mahindra has introduced the XUV700 Ebony Edition in India, joining the trend of black-themed SUVs. The special edition model, unveiled on 17 March, boasts an exclusive blacked-out aesthetic while retaining the mechanical specifications of the standard XUV700. Here are five key things to know about the newly launched Mahindra XUV700 Ebony Edition:

1. Exclusive Design and Colour Theme
The Mahindra XUV700 Ebony Edition stands out with its striking Stealth Black exterior, setting it apart from the standard variants. Enhancing its bold look are blacked-out ORVMs, black-on-black grille inserts, brushed silver skid plates, and sleek 18-inch black alloy wheels. The overall design follows the trend of dark edition SUVs currently popular in the Indian market.

2. Enhanced Interior Aesthetics
Inside the cabin, the XUV700 Ebony Edition features an all-black leatherette upholstery, contrasted with silver accents on the centre console and door panels. The dark chrome AC vents and a light grey roof liner contribute to an elegant dual-tone interior, reinforcing the SUV’s premium appeal.

3. Variants and Pricing
The XUV700 Ebony Edition is available in two primary trims: AX7 and AX7 L, both offered as seven-seater FWD versions. The pricing structure is as follows:

• AX7 (7-seater FWD): ₹19.64 lakh – ₹21.79 lakh (ex-showroom)
• AX7 L (7-seater FWD): ₹23.34 lakh – ₹24.14 lakh (ex-showroom) These prices position the Ebony Edition as a premium alternative to the standard model.

4. Unchanged Mechanical Specifications
Despite its cosmetic revamp, the XUV700 Ebony Edition remains mechanically identical to the regular XUV700. It continues to offer petrol and diesel engine options, paired with manual and automatic transmissions.

5. Competing in the Black-Themed SUV Market
With the launch of the Ebony Edition, Mahindra follows in the footsteps of Tata Motors, which recently introduced Dark Editions of the Harrier and Safari SUVs. This special edition enhances the XUV700’s appeal among consumers who prefer a bold, sophisticated, and stylish blacked-out vehicle.
