Planning to purchase a Mahindra XUV700? If yes, then, we have a bad news for you. The XUV700, which has created a buzz in the auto industry with its impressive design and features, is witnessing the longest waiting period right now in India.
It has been reported that the feature-loaded SUV’s entry-level MX and AX3 variants in petrol fuel trim have a waiting period of up to six months. While the diesel models have even longer waiting time of around seven to eight months.

In some cities including Delhi, Mumbai, and Bangalore, for the top-end models such as AX7 and AX7L, it is showing the highest waiting period of more than 11 months or a year.
However, the situation wasn’t the same in November last year. During that time, the base trims MX and AX3 were witnessing a waiting period of just one or two months. Even some customers claimed that they had received their AX5 petrol variant in less than 4 months after booking the SUV.

Meanwhile, in order to deal with this major problem, Mahindra decided to expand the production capacity from the current 6,000 units to 10,000 units by the start of 2024.
