    Mahindra XUV300 W8 (O) 1.2 Petrol AMT [2021] Review

    With the addition of AutoShift AMT automatic paired to the petrol motor, Mahindra has extended the versatility of XUV300 in the cut-throat segment.

    Engine and Performance

    Engine Shot

    When it was first introduced, the XUV300 had an option of both petrol and diesel engines paired to a manual gearbox as standard. Shortly after, the diesel was paired with an AMT automatic gearbox which impressed us with its seamless shifts and fewer intrusions. Now, Mahindra is offering its AutoShift AMT with the 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine completing the line-up. Output figures remain unchanged with 109bhp available at 5,000rpm and a twisting force of 200Nm is accessible from 2,000rpm. Mahindra claims to have calibrated the AMT set up by evaluating inputs from various systems like throttle position, vehicle speed, and load conditions. On idle, the three-cylinder turbo-petrol engine is silent and free from vibrations. 

    Gear Selector Dial

    This AMT has one of the most unique gear shifters we have seen for an automatic. The shift stick needs to be pushed once on the left for A (automatic) or twice for M (manual), and there is no D (for Drive) here. Pull it towards the right for Neutral (there’s no P either), and pull it towards the driver for Reverse. Lastly, push the stick forward for upshift and pull backwards for downshifting to take over the manual gearshifts. It has an inherent creep function to get off the line when in A, once the foot is off the brake lever with no need of touching the accelerator pedal. We found it to be useful in bumper-to-bumper traffic. But you’ll need to get on the gas for anything more than the choc-a-block. Moreover, on an incline (like a flyover with slow-moving traffic), when crawling, the motor tends to stutter.

    Right Front Three Quarter

    On the move, there’s enough grunt at slow speeds. And once the tachometer crosses 2,000rpm, there’s a noticeable surge in power. That said, the AMT tends to hold on to the gear up to 2,500rpm so you don’t feel bogged down when there’s an upshift. On the flip side, you can feel the gearbox working its way up the cog owing to the AMT jerks. The same is the case with the downshifts as well. Also, at times, when hurried, the gearshifts felt slightly dawdling. But that won’t be a major sticking point in day-to-day driving.

    Left Side View

    Mahindra claims that the motor has a flat torque between 3,000 and 5,000rpm. This comes in handy when wanting to drive past slow-moving traffic at city speeds or maintaining triple-digit speeds on the highway. Although all of the power is at disposable close to 4,000rpm, the motor revs freely to the redline, and it does get noisy while at it. Lastly, at sedate speeds, the engine sits comfortably under 2,000rpm and responds nicely when the need arises for accelerating swiftly. Take over the manual mode, and the AMT response is good and fairly in control, only downshifting on its own when absolutely necessary. Lastly, when it comes to fuel economy, the manual version has a claimed ARAI figure of 17kmpl. We expect the AMT version to have an almost similar or slightly lesser claim. But we’ll surely test out real-world figures in our thorough road test, along with its in-depth performance.

    Ride and Handling

    Right Front Three Quarter

    Apart from the automatic transmission, there are no tweaks done mechanically to this XUV300, so it continues to offer an unfazed ride. At slow speeds, it offers a plush ride that manages to absorb the bad surfaces, irregularities and ill-made speed breakers with ease. There’s a good composure when going over sharp-edged potholes while the ride remains unruffled even if you missed seeing one. Out on the highway, the ride remains flat taking in the undulations and occasional bumps and creases with good poise.

    Right Front Three Quarter

    As for the steering, it goes almost three turns lock-to-lock. But its character can be controlled/altered by a button on the centre console offering three settings – Normal, Comfort, and Sport. There’s not much difference noticeable between Normal and Comfort where it remains light but direct at any speed. But switch to Sport and there’s an immediate weight added, which is likeable for some spirited driving. Otherwise, either of the other two modes should be enough for everyday driving. Lastly, the brakes on our test car had a solid performance with good bite feel and stopping power at any speeds, courtesy of disc brakes on all four corners.

    Interior Space and Quality

    Dashboard

    On the inside, there are no changes made to the XUV300 since its debut. You get in it easily welcomed by a dual-tone cabin that looks like that of a typical modern-day Mahindra. There’s good quality of materials used all around that appear to age well. Moreover, silver and piano-black finished inserts help its case in being a modern car. But the monochromatic AC control or the old-school instrument cluster has started to look dated now.

    Instrument Cluster

    There are no complaints when it comes to space in the front-row helped further by comfortable seats. Even visibility all around is excellent, combined with well-thought ergonomics and a practical cabin. Despite being based on a bigger car with the longest wheelbase, the rear legroom of the XUV300 is not as good as some of its competition. There’s an acceptable amount of knee- and headroom. And we wished it came with better under-thigh support. Lastly, the boot space of 257litre isn’t anything to write home about either.

    Features and Safety

    Infotainment System

    The Mahindra XUV300 one of the few cars on sale in India with a five-star NCAP safety rating. This top-spec model we have here has a long list of features. In terms of safety the XUV300 is equipped with seven airbags, hill-hold function, four disc-brakes, front parking sensors, TPMS, and child-seat anchoring. Other features include push-button start, leather seats, sunroof, cruise control, navigation, heated mirrors, dual-zone climate control with its own set of memory function, LED DRLs, and projector headlamps to name a few. The seven-inch touchscreen is well-placed and has a simple interface to work around with. It is good to touch and operate too and comes with all the smartphone connectivity options available.

    What’s new here is the BlueSense Connected car technology that’s debuting in the XUV300 line-up in this top-spec model. Similar to the competition, BlueSense comes with 40 connected car features including location-based services and control for various other car features. Experiencing the BlueSense first hand on our smartphone, we found it to be quick, informative, and pretty accurate as well. Its app is also easy to navigate with simple interface and control buttons. Although it’s not free of glitches and the notification on your phone for each little activity of your car (anything from starting to idling, seatbelt usage, and speeds) could be too much.

    Conclusion

    Front View

    The Mahindra XUV300 is the understated underdog of the lucrative sub-four metre SUV segment. With the addition of AMT automatic paired to the petrol motor, the carmaker has extended its versatility in the cut-throat segment. This move, however, comes as ‘too little, too late’ as newcomers in the segment like the Hyundai Venue, Kia Sonet, and the new Nissan Magnite are offering options like DCT, CVT, or iMT. Also, there aren’t any major changes made to the XUV300 – neither inside nor out – which after two years seems like the need of the hour, especially when compared to the rivals like the Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza and the Tata Nexon. Hopefully, an update should be on the horizon once the bigger siblings (XUV500 and Scorpio) enter into their newer generation. Otherwise, the XUV300 still is handsome looking, comfortable on the inside, easy to drive with good handling and ride quality, and also one of the safest sub-four metre SUV you can put your money on.

            109 bhp @ 5000 rpm

            Gives a good idea of the performance of the vehicle under full thrust. A higher figure here usually means a higher top speed as well.

            Higher the power, the peppier the engine but it can also affect fuel economy.

          • Max Torque (Nm@rpm)
            200 Nm @ 2000 rpm

            Relates to in-gear acceleration. A higher figure here means better roll-on acceleration, fewer gear shifts, and possibly better fuel efficiency.

            The more torque at low RPM range makes the engine feel more responsive. It also allows the engine to run smoothly without too many gear changes.

          • Mileage (ARAI)
            17 kmpl

            This is the maximum fuel efficiency that an engine gives. All numbers are provided by the manufacturer based on tests conducted and specified by the standards of the ARAI (Automotive Research Association of India)

            Such fuel efficiency attained while driving in special conditions makes it unlikely to get it in real-world conditions

          • Driving Range
            714 Km

            Approximate maximum number of kilometers which can be traveled on a full tank of fuel or fully charged battery

          • Emission Standard
            BS 6

            Set by the Indian Government, this governs the amount of air pollutants released by cars to make the atmosphere safer for humans.

          • Turbocharger / Supercharger
            Turbocharged

            Manufacturers today offer turbochargers to boost engine power without affecting its fuel economy. Superchargers are found in more expensive cars but on the downside, they are not very efficient.

            Turbochargers are more effective but require plenty of heat management. Superchargers, meanwhile, offer linear bump in power but they are comparatively more complex.

        • Dimensions & Weight

          • Length
            3995 mm

            The length of the car decides its segment. In India, cars that are less than 4 metres in length enjoy reduced excise duties.

            Length

          • Front Suspension
            MacPherson Strut with anti-roll bar

            Almost all cars in India use an independent front suspension which is usually the MacPherson Strut type.

          • Rear Suspension
            Twist beam suspension with coil spring

            The rear suspension can either be non-independent or independent.

            Most of the budget cars have non-independent suspension while the more expensive ones get independent rear suspension which offers better bump absorption.

          • Front Brake Type
            Disc

            Most of the vehicles sold in India get ventilated or non-ventilated disc brakes upfront.

            - The ventilated discs are more popular thanks to them providing better stopping power and it also works well in hot conditions.

          • Rear Brake Type
            Disc

            In affordable cars, drums brakes are fitted at the rear as they are cost effective.

            Disc setup at the rear is now getting more popular as cars are getting faster in the real world.

          • Minimum Turning Radius
            5.3 metres

            The official kerb-to-kerb minimum radius a car takes to complete a 180-degree turn.

        Mahindra XUV300 W8 (O) 1.2 Petrol AMT [2021] Reviews

        • 5.0/5

          (9 Ratings) 2 Reviews
        • Very spacious, silent and powerful - A perfect family car and a fun car for a solo driver.
          Got the car in a few days as the stock was available. This car is a beast and has no sweat in reaching 140 km/h. Very stable even at high speeds. Very spacious and comfortable seating. 1st service was good but changed from normal service to express service. Around 13 km/l on highways cruising at 100 km/h and a bit more if you cruise at 90 km/h. AMT gearbox needs a little getting used to in traffic and slopes.

        • Mahindra XUV300
          This is my 3rd car. First I used Ford Figo, then Baleno.Something I realised the difference between XUV300 and other 2 cars is the smoothness which makes you feel relaxed and it never glitches and along the rough road also it gives you a feeling that the road is smooth and the mileage is excellent. Only cons are the boot space and also the infotainment screen which is looking old quality which can be improved. Rest all we can blindly take this car and you will never repent buying it,but you feel proud to own such car.
