The brand aims to deliver 14,000 XUV700s by 14 January, 2022 with diesel variants to be delivered from this month-end.

Under the bulged bonnet, the XUV700 is plonked with two engines. The 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine churns out 197bhp and 380Nm of peak torque. The 2.2-litre turbo diesel unit can be had in two states of tune. While the higher specs will have a tuned output of 182bhp and peak torque of 420Nm (for manual variants) and 450Nm (automatic variants), the lower specs will put out a modest 153bhp and 360Nm torque. A six-speed manual and a six-speed automatic transmission are standard for both guises along with an option of all-wheel-drive setup.
