Diverse Powertrain Options with Strong Performance
The XUV 3XO offers a choice of two 1.2L turbo-petrol engines and a 1.5L diesel engine. The top-tier TGDi petrol variant delivers 129 bhp and 230 Nm of torque, while the diesel variant offers 115 bhp and 300 Nm of torque. These engines are paired with either a 6-speed manual or an Aisin-sourced 6-speed automatic transmission, providing a balance of performance and efficiency. -
Comprehensive Safety Features
Safety is a highlight, with the XUV 3XO featuring six airbags, Electronic Stability Control (ESC), and Level 2 Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) including adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assist. It has achieved a 5-star safety rating from Bharat NCAP, underscoring its commitment to occupant protection.
Cons
-
Limited Diesel Automatic Option
While the petrol variants benefit from a smooth 6-speed automatic transmission, the diesel version is only available with a 6-speed Automated Manual Transmission (AMT), which may not offer the same level of refinement and responsiveness. -
Compact Boot Space
The XUV 3XO's boot capacity is 295 liters, which is smaller compared to some competitors in the subcompact SUV segment. This limited space might be a constraint for users requiring ample luggage capacity.
