Mahindra XUV 3XO CNG लॉन्च, मिलेंगे 6 एयरबैग और 360-डिग्री कैमरा, जानें कीमत और माइलेज

Posted on by admin

अगर आप CNG SUV खरीदने की सोच रहे हैं, लेकिन पावर और फीचर्स से समझौता नहीं करना चाहते, तो Mahindra की नई पेशकश आपके लिए दिलचस्प हो सकती है। कंपनी ने XUV 3XO का CNG वर्जन लॉन्च कर दिया है। इसकी एक्स-शोरूम कीमत ₹9.99 लाख से शुरू होती है। इसमें बूट स्पेस के अंदर दो CNG सिलेंडर दिए गए हैं और कंपनी का दावा है कि यह 1 किलोग्राम CNG में 24.70 किलोमीटर तक चल सकती है।

खास बात यह है कि Mahindra की SUV रेंज में अब तक CNG का विकल्प नहीं मिलता था। ऐसे में XUV 3XO CNG के आने से ग्राहकों को एक नया ऑप्शन मिल गया है। इसका मुकाबला Tata Nexon CNG और Maruti Suzuki Brezza CNG से होगा। CNG मॉडल में भी 110 bhp का टर्बो-पेट्रोल इंजन, छह एयरबैग और 360-डिग्री कैमरा जैसे फीचर्स दिए गए हैं।

Mahindra XUV 3XO CNG चार वेरिएंट में उपलब्ध है। इनकी एक्स-शोरूम कीमत ₹9.99 लाख से ₹12.27 लाख तक है। अगर आप इसे खरीदने का प्लान बना रहे हैं, तो जान लीजिए कि किस वेरिएंट की कीमत कितनी है, उसमें क्या-क्या फीचर्स मिलते हैं और खरीदने से पहले बूट स्पेस, माइलेज और CNG से होने वाली बचत से जुड़ी किन बातों पर ध्यान देना चाहिए।

Mahindra XUV 3XO CNG: वेरिएंट के हिसाब से कीमतें

यहां XUV 3XO CNG की वेरिएंट-वार एक्स-शोरूम कीमतें दी गई हैं।

AX5₹11.19 लाख₹1.20 लाख
RevX A₹12.27 लाख₹2.28 लाख

Mahindra XUV 3XO CNG: इसमें क्या-क्या मिलता है

इसका डिजeइन पेट्रोल 3XO जैसा ही है, बस टेलगेट पर ‘CNG’ का बैज लगा है। इसके फीचर्स में तीन स्टीयरिंग मोड (नॉर्मल, कम्फर्ट और स्पोर्ट्स), स्टार्ट-स्टॉप बटन, 10.25-इंच की टचस्क्रीन और 10.25-इंच का डिजिटल क्लस्टर शामिल हैं। इसके अलावा, इसमें पैनोरमिक सनरूफ, 360-डिग्री कैमरा, टायर प्रेशर मॉनिटर, डॉल्बी एटमॉस साउंड, लेदरेट सीटें, रियर वाइपर, कनेक्टेड LED टेललैंप और आगे व पीछे के आर्मरेस्ट भी दिए गए हैं।

सेफ्टी के लिए इसमें 6 एयरबैग, 4 डिस्क ब्रेक, सभी यात्रियों के लिए 3-पॉइंट सीटबेल्ट, EBD के साथ ABS, रियर पार्किंग सेंसर, सीटबेल्ट रिमाइंडर और स्पीड अलर्ट जैसे फीचर्स मिलते हैं।  हालांकि, कंपनी ने अभी यह साफ नहीं किया है कि कौन-सा फीचर किस वेरिएंट में मिलेगा। इसलिए बुकिंग करने से पहले डीलर से संबंधित वेरिएंट की फीचर लिस्ट जरूर मांग लें।

Mahindra XUV 3XO CNG: हार्डवेयर

इसमें दो सिलेंडर बूट (डिग्गी) में लगे हैं, इसलिए यह जरूर पता करें कि कितना इस्तेमाल करने लायक स्पेस बचता है और क्या इसमें एक फुल-साइज सूटकेस आ सकता है। इसमें 1.2-लीटर TCMPFi टर्बो-पेट्रोल इंजन है, जो 110 bhp की पावर और 200 Nm का टॉर्क जनरेट करता है। कंपनी का दावा है कि यह 0-100 km/h की रफ्तार 11.8 सेकंड में पकड़ लेती है। 24.70 km/kg का माइलेज सिर्फ एक दावा है, असल इस्तेमाल में यह आंकड़ा इससे कम होगा। लॉन्च की जानकारी में गियरबॉक्स के विकल्पों और CNG किट की वारंटी के बारे में नहीं बताया गया है, इसलिए इन दोनों बातों को जरूर कंफर्म कर लें।

महिंद्रा XUV 3XO CNG: क्या यह एक्स्ट्रा कीमत वसूल है?

पेट्रोल RevX Edge (O) की कीमत पहले 9.89 लाख रुपये थी, इसलिए CNG वर्जन लगभग 90,000 रुपये महंगा है। यह जानने के लिए कि आपकी एक्स्ट्रा कीमत कब वसूल होगी, इस एक्स्ट्रा रकम को प्रति किलोमीटर होने वाली बचत (पेट्रोल की प्रति किमी लागत – CNG की प्रति किमी लागत) से भाग दें और इसकी तुलना हर साल आप जितनी दूरी तय करते हैं, उससे करें। जो लोग ज्यादा गाड़ी चलाते हैं, उनकी लागत जल्दी वसूल हो जाएगी, जबकि कम इस्तेमाल करने वालों की लागत शायद कभी वसूल न हो।

गाड़ी बुक करने से पहले देख लें कि आपके घर और रास्ते के आस-पास CNG स्टेशन आसानी से उपलब्ध हैं या नहीं। यह भी पता करें कि किन वेरिएंट्स में पैनोरमिक सनरूफ और 360-डिग्री कैमरा मिलता है। साथ ही, यह भी पूछ लें कि क्या सिलेंडरों की समय-समय पर होने वाली जांच और CNG किट, महिंद्रा की वारंटी और सर्विसिंग में शामिल हैं या नहीं।

Mahindra XUV 3XO CNG vs rivals: price, specifications compared

Mahindra XUV 3XO CNG vs rivals: price, specifications compared
Mahindra XUV 3XO CNG vs rivals

Mahindra’s entry-level offering, the XUV 3XO, is now available with a factory-fitted CNG kit in certain trim levels. This allows the XUV 3XO to directly rival CNG variants of the Tata Nexon and Maruti Suzuki Brezza. We take a look at how Mahindra’s first non-commercial car with a factory-fitted CNG kit fares against its competitors, spec sheet to spec sheet.

Mahindra XUV 3XO CNG vs rivals: Dimensions

 XUV 3XOBrezzaNexon
Length (mm)3,9903,9953,995
Width (mm)1,8211,7901,804
Height (mm)1,6471,6851,620
Wheelbase (mm)2,6002,5002,498
Wheel size (inches)161616
Boot space (litres)270328321

The XUV 3XO is slightly shorter overall than the Nexon and Brezza, but ekes out the longest wheelbase and is the widest compact SUV here. In terms of height, the XUV 3XO falls just short of the Maruti, and all three SUVs offer 16-inch alloy wheels. Coming to boot space, though, the XUV 3XO lags substantially behind its rivals, despite having a similar boot-mounted twin-cylinder setup to the Nexon. The Brezza, meanwhile, has the highest boot space here due to its underbody CNG tank setup.

Mahindra XUV 3XO CNG vs rivals: Engine and gearbox

 XUV 3XOBrezzaNexon
Engine1.2 turbo-petrol1.5 petrol1.2 turbo-petrol
Cylinder count343
Power (hp)11188100
Torque (Nm)200121.5170
Gearbox6-speed manual6-speed manual6-speed manual
Claimed mileage (km/kg)24.726.924

Where CNG cars are usually weaker in CNG mode, the XUV 3XO flips the script by outputting identical power and torque figures in its petrol and CNG modes – Mahindra has achieved this by optimising the turbocharger calibration and ECU mapping. Therefore, the XUV 3XO CNG is the most powerful compact SUV here, beating the Nexon CNG by 11hp and 30Nm, and the Brezza CNG by a considerable 23hp and 78.5Nm margin.

That said, the Brezza CNG does claw a point in its favour by offering the biggest engine here and an additional cylinder over its rivals, which could make the driving experience feel smoother and more refined. Another big upside to the Brezza CNG is its segment-best claimed fuel efficiency. The XUV 3XO trails just behind the Brezza on the mileage front, while the Nexon CNG sports the lowest claimed figure.

Mahindra XUV 3XO CNG vs rivals: Price

 Price (Rs, lakh)
XUV 3XO9.99-12.27
Brezza*9.40-11.60
Nexon*8.35-13.42

*Excluding premiums for dual-tone paint finishes and/or cosmetic packages.

The XUV 3XO CNG carries the highest starting price compared to its rivals, with the Nexon CNG undercutting it by Rs 1.54 lakh and the Brezza CNG by Rs 59,000. Looking at top-spec variant prices, the order sees a rejig, with the Tata SUV commanding the highest price due to a broader spread of variants. At Rs 13.42 lakh, the range-topping variant of the Nexon CNG is Rs 1.15 lakh pricier than the XUV 3XO CNG’s equivalent version, and Rs 1.82 lakh more expensive than that of the Brezza CNG.

All prices are ex-showroom, India.

Mahindra XUV 3XO CNG teased ahead of launch
3XO

Mahindra will debut a CNG the variant of the XUV 3XO on October 15, expanding its compact SUV’s powertrain line-up to four options. The CNG version will join the existing petrol, diesel and electric variants, making it the third compact SUV in India to offer a CNG option, alongside the Maruti Suzuki Brezza and Tata Nexon. The teaser offers a first look at the XUV 3XO CNG’s exterior and interior.

Mahindra XUV 3XO CNG: Expected powertrain

The XUV 3XO CNG is expected to use the 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engine with multi-point fuel injection (MPFI), which produces 111hp and 200Nm in the petrol version. The petrol-powered XUV 3XO is available with six-speed manual and automatic gearboxes. Transmission options for the CNG version, along with details of the CNG tank and its placement, are likely to be revealed closer to launch.

Mahindra XUV 3XO CNG: exterior and interior

The teaser shows a body-coloured panel between the headlamps, with slim metallic inserts flanking the Mahindra Twin Peaks logo. The closed-off grille design resembles the RevX range, which suggests Mahindra could be offering the CNG powertrain with the RevX range. The teaser also confirms a panoramic sunroof.

Other exterior details are expected to remain largely unchanged from the standard XUV 3XO.

Top 10 bestselling cars in August 2026: Punch back on top spot
Bestselling cars in August

The Tata Punch was India’s best-selling car in August 2026, with 21,320 units sold, ahead of the Maruti Suzuki Wagon R and Swift. The top 10 models together recorded 1,83,037 units, up from 1,37,334 units in August 2025. Nine of the 10 models recorded year-on-year growth, with Maruti Suzuki accounting for six models in the list.

The year-on-year increase came against a lower base in August 2025, when buyers deferred purchases and manufacturers moderated dealer dispatches amid expectations of GST changes announced that month.

Buying a used Maruti Brezza: What to look out for

Posted on by admin
Buying a used Maruti Brezza: What to look out for
2022 Maruti Suzuki Brezza front quarter static

GOOD FOR: Comfort, Practicality, Easy to drive 

LOOK OUT FOR: Suspension wear, Infotainment issues

The Maruti Brezza has long been one of the most sensible choices in the compact SUV segment, and the 2022 update made it considerably more desirable. It brought a sharper design, a more efficient petrol engine, a new automatic gearbox and a substantial increase in equipment. Being comfortable, practical and relatively inexpensive to run, the Maruti Brezza makes a strong case as a used buy. Here’s all you need to know when looking for one.

In terms of cosmetics, the 2022 Brezza was a complete reskin with new sheet metal all around and a new grille and bumpers, slimmer LED headlamps, new LED tail-lights and fresh 16-inch alloy wheels. The rear number plate was moved down onto the bumper, while the sharper surfacing and revised lighting gave it a more contemporary appearance. Dual-tone colour options were also offered, giving it a more upmarket look.

Check out used Maruti Brezza models.

Maruti Brezza powertrain and mileage

Petrol and CNG powertrains; up to 20.15kpl claimed mileage

The biggest change was under the hood, with the Brezza receiving Maruti’s 1.5-litre K15C DualJet petrol engine. It uses two injectors per cylinder and, together with the Smart Hybrid system, puts out 103hp and 137Nm. The other major change was the new 6-speed torque-converter automatic gearbox with paddle shifters, replacing the older 4-speed unit. The standard 5-speed manual gearbox was carried over. The updated Brezza also got auto start-stop and a lithium-ion battery as part of its mild-hybrid system. Maruti claimed fuel efficiency of 20.15kpl for the manual and 19.80kpl for the automatic.

In 2023, Maruti also launched the Brezza CNG, which used the same 1.5-litre engine that put out a lower 88hp and 121.5Nm on CNG and came with the manual only. The Brezza CNG was offered in three trims, and Maruti claimed a fuel economy of 25.51km/kg.

The petrol manual is ideal for most users as it’s easy to drive, reasonably efficient and generally the most affordable version to buy. Those doing most of their running in the city should consider the automatic, which is smooth and far more convenient in traffic. Meanwhile, the CNG makes sense for high-mileage users. The 1.5-litre engine isn’t punchy, so don’t buy the Brezza expecting strong performance, especially when overtaking at highway speeds. 

Maruti Suzuki Brezza variants and features 

9-inch infotainment system, 360-degree camera, head-up display and more

As for variants, there were four main trims – LXi, VXi, ZXi and ZXi+. The top-spec ZXi+ packs in features such as a 9-inch SmartPlay Pro+ touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a 360-degree camera, head-up display, sunroof, connected-car tech, cruise control, auto climate control, LED lighting and six airbags. Lower variants are reasonably well equipped too, so it’s worth choosing the car based on condition and service history rather than simply chasing the highest trim.

Brezza aftersales details

Being a Maruti product, the Brezza is easy to maintain and spare parts are widely available. Maruti’s extensive service network is another advantage, particularly for buyers intending to keep the car for several years. The Brezza also has strong resale demand, which helps lower depreciation. It’s worth looking for an example with a complete service history and, where applicable, an extended warranty.

What to look out for in a used Maruti Suzuki Brezza

Suspension wear

Brezza owners have reported of noises or looseness from the suspension as the car ages. Drive the car over uneven roads and speed breakers, and listen for any noises or excessive crashing. Also check the condition of the tyres, as uneven wear can point towards alignment or suspension issues.

Infotainment issues

The Brezza gets a 9-inch touchscreen, 360-degree camera and head-up display. While the screen is generally responsive, owners have reported glitches, including camera display problems and phone disconnections. Before buying, test the touchscreen thoroughly, connect Android Auto/Apple CarPlay and make sure the 360-degree camera and HUD work correctly.

Potential defect in front seatbelts and airbag

Brezza units manufactured between November 2 and November 28, 2022, were recalled over a possible defect in a child part of the front seatbelt shoulder height adjuster assembly. Later, Brezza’s manufactured between December 8, 2022 and January 12, 2023, were included in another recall involving a possible airbag-controller defect. Make sure any car from these periods has had the relevant recall work completed.

Second-hand Maruti Suzuki Brezza price and resale value

Rs 7 lakh-11 lakh

The Brezza continues to command a healthy price in the used market. Current listings show examples spanning a wide range depending on variant, mileage and condition. However, be careful about paying too close to the price of a new Brezza. A low-mileage, single-owner example with a full service history is worth paying a little extra for, but condition should remain the priority.
