Mahindra XUV700 Facelift 2026 – New Features, Design Updates & Latest Details

Written by Sharey Khan

Published Nov 25, 2025, 1:02 PM

Last Updated Apr 10, 2026, 7:21 AM

The Mahindra XUV700 has been the undisputed leader in the Indian SUV space ever since its launch in 2021. Now it’s time for the company to prepare a thrilling new edition to keep that trend very much alive and well. The 2026 refresh is set to include such an impressive array of updates that it’s expected to entice even more buyers. So, let’s take a look at what’s new, what’s changed and why this facelift is worth the wait.

What’s the Big Deal with the Facelift?

A “facelift” in terms of cars, is when a vehicle is given a bit of a design and feature refresh to keep it looking up to date and competitive. The XUV700 facelift 2026 is not a mere patchwork-up. It brings massive changes on the outside and inside the SUV. Facelift is all set to keep Mahindra ahead in the war marred mid-size SUV segment which is their bread and butter where it faces competition from Tata Safari, MG Hector Plus, Hyundai Alcazar.

The good news is the update will make the XUV700 even more capable while still being the XUV700 that owners already love. The upcoming model is expected to debut in 2026, and judging from the spy shots of the prototype, we now have a peek at what is coming.

Design Updates

The body of 2026 XUV700 facelift remains same but gets an all new front end- which will be a huge change in the new model. Here’s what’s changing：

Front Fascia: The circular headlights are disappearing to give way to dual-pod LED projector headlights which look much sharper and modern. The new lamps will have a new design for the C-shaped LED DRLs, appearing more futuristic and aggressive.

Grille: The grille at the front has been redesigned. It’s more upright and has more slats, which gives the XUV700 a new identity that is more premium and unique. The restyled design was inspired by Mahindra’s new electric SUVs such as the BE 6 and XEV 9e.

Bumper Design: The lower part of the front bumper is restyled with a more streamlined air dam and a new lower lip on the bumper that gives a more refined finished look. The rear bumper gets revisions too in line with the new design language.

Alloy Wheels: There will be new alloy wheel designs that match the contemporary exterior style.

Mahindra XUV700 Facelift 2026 vs Current Model – (Expected) Key Updates Comparison

Rear End : The rear receives minor changes that includes a new LED lightbar and restyled bumper. The dual tail light set up with vertical extensions mounted on both sides is also said to modernize its looks.

Interior Features

It’s the interior of the new XUV700 that truly sizzles. Mahindra is bringing certain features from its electric SUVs to enhance the premium feel of the cabin and make it more tech-forward.

Triple Screen Setup: The transformed triple-screen dashboard setup, inspired by the Mahindra XEV 9e, is the most significant change in the interior. The instrument cluster, the infotainment screen, and the co-passenger entertainment screen – all three are 12.3 inches in size. This is the kind of arrangement you usually find in far more expensive SUVs, and it just adds to the value of the XUV700.

Premium Audio System: The existing unit already a treat to ears but the 2026 gets premium 16-speaker Harman Kardon audio system with Dolby Atmos. This is the same audio system available in Mahindra’s EVs and will give you film-quality audio inside your SUV.

Comfort Features: The 6-seater model would now receive rear ventilated seats in the second row, ideal for Indian summers. The revised version also introduces an auto-dimming internal rear-view mirror in the XUV700. You will also find one more wireless phone charger, so as you and your partner keep your phones charged on road trips.

Steering Wheel: The steering wheel now sports an illuminated Mahindra Twin Peaks logo for a premium feel when you get in at night.

Advanced Safety Tech: Among the most-discussed features is the auto-park assist feature, which can park the car itself in a tight spot —a high-end luxury car feature until now.

Technology & Safety

Apart from the screens and the sound system, the facelift also makes the XUV700 smarter. The Level 2 ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) will be enhanced with more functions and better performance. A digital key feature will enable you to unlock and start your car from your smartphone.

Other anticipated technology upgrades include upgraded connected car features and a refreshed infotainment system with more touchscreen-based controls. Rear sun blinds and ambient lighting throughout the cabin which help to create a more premium feeling.

Same Powerful Engines

Here’s the thing about the facelift — the engines remain the same because they’re already great. The XUV700 will get two power options.

The 2.0-litre turbo Petrol engine is capable of producing 197 bhp @ 5,000 rpm and 380 Nm of torque between 1,750 and 3,000 rpm. Then there’s the 2.2-litre diesel, which delivers an economical punch for the purists.

Either a 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic gearbox can be had for both engines. So no mechanical changes just the engines that have been excellent in terms of reliability and performance.

What Stays the Same?

The XUV700 facelift is packed with the features that already have you hooked. This includes the panoramic roof, 360-degree camera, ventilated front seats, dual-zone air conditioning, electronic parking brake and tire pressure monitoring system. You can still opt between the 6-seater and 7-seater variants.

When Can You Buy It?

The update is said to come in 2026. Although the release date has not been confirmed, Mahindra is already shuttling the vehicle on roads in India, meaning that an official unveiling is drawing nearer.

Conclusion

The Mahindra XUV700 facelift 2026 is turning out to be an impressive midcycle update that the manufacturer planned to bring to the buyers, including more features, better tech and an all-new look. It’s not an all-new design, which is good news, because customers already love the shape of the current XUV700’s body. Instead, it’s a smart refresh that transfers features from luxury cars and electric vehicles to this beloved SUV.

If you’re in the market for a mid-size SUV and can hold on a few months, wait for the 2026 refresh. Mahindra has undoubtedly heard the customers desires and has brought forth an update that emanates an improved comfort, more tech, a more premium feel—all with the same reliable engines and practical design that made the XUV700 such a hit.

JLR Landing a Land Rover Defender Pickup Truck In US

Written by Alok Kabir

Published Sep 17, 2026, 12:36 PM

For years, Defender fans have asked why Land Rover keeps teasing a pickup version and never builds one. Now, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is working with Stellantis to build a Land Rover Defender pickup truck in the United States — and the reason has less to do with off-road capability and more to do with import tariffs.

The specifications are still not confirmed. This is the first product of collaboration so expecting great tech and reliability of a pickup truck is the first thing to think about.

The Official Agreement Between JLR and Stellantis on Product Development

Back in May 2026, JLR and Stellantis signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding (MoU) to “explore opportunities to collaborate on product development” in the US, along with shared manufacturing capacity. At the time, neither company named a specific vehicle.

That changed in September 2026, when Automotive News reported that the first product out of this alliance would be a Land Rover Defender pickup truck built for the US market. JLR’s Chief Financial Officer, Richard Molyneux, confirmed on an earnings call that the two companies intend to finalize the broader agreement by the end of 2026. JLR’s CEO, PB Balaji, has separately said the goal is to grow JLR’s US business to eventually match the size of its entire global business — a genuinely ambitious target.

Stellantis has acknowledged joint discussions are underway, but neither company has publicly confirmed “pickup truck” as the specific output.

Why Land Rover Defender Pickup Truck Has to Be Built in America

This is really a tariff story wearing a product story’s clothes.

Every Defender sold in the US today — the 90, 110, and 130 — ships in from JLR’s plant in Nitra, Slovakia. Passenger vehicles built in the UK and EU already face added US import tariffs. But trucks get hit worse: American light trucks and pickups imported from abroad face the 25% “Chicken Tax,” a tariff that’s been on the books since the 1960s and makes shipping a European-built truck to the US financially unworkable.

Building the pickup on US soil with Stellantis sidesteps that tariff entirely. North America now accounts for roughly 30% of JLR’s global sales, while China — once its biggest market — has fallen to under 7%. A pickup built for Americans, by an American-based partner, is JLR reading the room.

If it happens, it would also mark JLR’s first vehicle assembly in the US, and the first Land Rover-badged pickup sold there since British Leyland shipped over Series I and Series II trucks in the 1960s and early ’70s.

The Engineering Behind Defender

The current Defender is a unibody vehicle. Stellantis’s American trucks — the Ram 1500, Ram Heavy Duty, and Jeep Gladiator — are body-on-frame. Those are different structural philosophies, and no one has said which way a Defender pickup would go.

Stellantis does have unibody experience through the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango, so a unibody truck isn’t off the table, but it’s not confirmed either.

Powertrain is just as open. Shipping Defender’s European engines to the US would trigger its own tariffs, but slotting in an off-the-shelf Stellantis engine might not fit a vehicle Land Rover wants to sell at premium prices.

Size, trim strategy, launch year, and pricing haven’t been disclosed by either company. Any number you see for engine output, mileage, or price right now is a guess dressed up as a leak.

Land Rover Defender Pickup Truck Rivals Already In The Market

The Ineos Grenadier Quartermaster as the closest natural rival — a body-on-frame, old-school off-roader with genuine pickup credibility and a similar niche, premium-utility positioning. The Jeep Gladiator gets the hook too, though as a lower-priced, less luxury-focused alternative rather than a direct match.

Beyond that, a Defender pickup would land in the same rarefied air as loaded trim levels of the Ford F-150 Platinum and GMC Sierra Denali — trucks that compete less on payload bragging rights and more on cabin quality and brand cachet. If JLR positions this as a genuine luxury pickup rather than a rebadged Stellantis product, that’s the shelf it’s aiming for.

Expected Specification and Size of Land Rover Defender Pickup Truck

Land Rover Defender Pickup are using the Defender 110 as the donor vehicle since it’s the volume model closest to a crew-cab truck’s proportions. The current Defender 110 measures around 5,018mm in length including the rear-mounted spare wheel and uses a 3,022mm wheelbase. The most-floated build approach isn’t a clean-sheet truck at all — it would keep the 110’s front section, four doors and five-seat cabin, and simply replace the rear luggage compartment with an open load bed.

Unlike traditional pickups, the Defender uses JLR’s aluminium D7x monocoque architecture rather than a separate ladder-frame chassis. Stellantis’s US trucks (Ram 1500, Ram HD, Gladiator) are body-on-frame. But still it’s unconfirmed.

The current lineup runs from a 296-hp turbocharged four-cylinder to a 626-hp twin-turbo V8, but European-built JLR engines would face import tariffs if shipped over for US assembly. An off-the-shelf Stellantis engine dodges that, but risks feeling wrong in a truck JLR wants to price at a premium.

Conclusion

If the deal is finalized by the end of 2026 as JLR’s CFO suggested, the realistic next milestone to watch for is an official confirmation of the vehicle itself. Concept reveals, platform confirmations, and pricing typically trail an MoU finalization by a year or more in projects like this.

For now, JLR wants an American-built Land Rover Defender Pickup Truck badly enough to partner with a rival automaker to get around a 60-year-old tariff law. Everything past that — what it looks like, what it costs, whether it ever reaches a market outside the US is still an open question.

Fortuner vs Gloster: Which Full-Size SUV is Much Better

So, dominating the Indian roads, full-size SUVs like Fortuner vs Gloster have few equals when it comes to road presence in many segments. While the Toyota Fortuner has always been the undisputed leader in this segment, the MG Gloster made a confident entry by infusing luxury and technology into the segment. Let us get down and dirty with these two behemoths and find out which is better in Fortuner vs Gloster !

Design and Road Presence

Toyota Fortuner’s exterior remained a rugged and robust SUV over the years. The reborn 2024 model bears much sharper LED headlamps, more aggressive grille and flowing moulded lines that gives a modern strong posture. It has everything that the fortuner is, road ready, and Impervious.

But the MG Gloster isn’t that. Alto immediately enhances the overall street presence being bigger than the Fortuner in length, width and height. Its premium looks, LED DRLs and chrome-infested grille enable it to attract richer and more mature buyers. The Gloster is a rolling luxury lounge, and the Fortuner is a rugged trail machine.

Interior Comfort and Space

Step inside the Fortuner, you will find quality fabrics and finished designs that don’t let your eyes off. The third row is reasonably comfortable for adult passengers on shorter rides, and the room overall is sufficient for a family of seven. But it is a bit on the cramped side as compared to the third row in the Gloster.

The MG Gloster is a whole new ball game in terms of size. The cabin is enormous, with real room for seven adults. The second-row captain seats (optional on higher variants) are truly opulent, featuring ventilation, massage functions and powered adjustments. The third row isn’t an afterthought – it’s actually usable. Panoramic sunroof, ambient lighting and premium leather trimmed make an environment that comes close to that of luxury sedans with two times higher price tag.

Technology and Features

Here the Gloster races ahead by a good margin. MG Gloster is so feature-packed that the Fortuner feels like it is a generation behind. We’re talking about a huge 12.3-inch touchscreen with connected car technology, a 12-speaker Bose sound system, wireless charging and a digital instrument cluster.

But the real wow-factor is the Level 1 ADAS suite – adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, automatic emergency braking, and a 360-degree camera system. The Gloster is practically on auto-drive on highways.

But the Fortuner isn’t exactly a bare bones vehicle. The new model gets an 8-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, powered front seats and good audio system. But it doesn’t have the advanced driver assistance tools, or the wow factor, that you get with the Gloster’s technology offerings. Toyota has always prized reliability and simplicity, but that approach is beginning to appear a little old-fashioned in the feature-hungry world now of today.

Performance & Driving Experience

The Fortuner comes with two powertrains that supports city driving with its 2.7-liter engine’s 245 Nm of torque, but with 2.8-liter diesel which produces 201 hp and 500 Nm is the clear star and perfect for the highways. Its powerful engine makes cruising and the 4×4 model has a low-range transfer case that makes it a real off-road machine.

The Gloster felt quieter and smoother with 2.0-liter twin-turbo diesel engine that delivers 215 hp and 480 Nm of torque and also 8-speed automatic transmission is better than the one in the Fortuner, and the adaptive suspension (in higher variants) can’t be beaten when it comes to ride quality.

But the Fortuner has more tricks up its sleeve as you get greater driver involvement. The Gloster’s soft suspension is comfortable but creates a bit of body roll in bends. The Fortuner has a better planted and more confidence inspiring feel on pushing and its lighter kerb weight (Although it is a body on frame SUV) lends it better agility.

Off-Road Capability

This is where the Fortuner really shows its character. Toyota’s renowned reliability with a true 4×4 system, ample ground clearance and solid build makes it almost unstoppable off road. It has a story of conquering the Himalayas, deserts and everything in between.

Gloster boasts smart 4×4 and a host of terrain modes, and it’s surprisingly able for its size. Still, jumped in the gang of cars where size and weight is good enough to handle tight trails but Toyota’s rock-solid reputation is run over its long-term dependability.

Pricing Verdict

Toyota Fortuner ex-showroom cost lies in the range of ₹30.60 lakh – ₹36.59 lakh and the 4×4 diesel auto variant is available at a premium. It holds the resale value like gold – a deciding factor in the Indian market.

The MG Gloster price starts at about ₹32 lakh and goes up to a maximum of ₹43 lakh for the top-end variant, it is cheaper than the high-spec Fortuner while it does offer more features. But MG’s service support, and brand value, still growing, is nothing compared to Toyota’s.

Conclusion

Buyer who wants reliability with wonderful off-road experience plus strong resale value can go wilder on the Toyota Fortuner. It’s the ethical option that simply won’t let you down. If you want luxury, space, technology and a good value, pick the MG Gloster. Gloster is a premium offering that is way above anything that you can get in this price bracket for a couple of more bucks.

When it comes to Fortuner vs Gloster, they’re both terrific vehicles, but they appeal to different sensibilities: The Fortuner is the rugged off-road adventurer, while the Gloster is the urbane cruiser. Ultimately, in Fortuner vs Gloster — your choice depends on what means more to you, the badge and the trail, or the features and the comfort.
