The new Mahindra XUV700 is grabbing headlines!
The new Mahindra XUV700 is a smash in terms of bookings, with approximately 75,000 people interested, and it now has a top safety rating.
The new Mahindra XUV700 has grabbed the 5-Star rating for adult occupant protection and the highest rating for child occupant protection, with 41.66 out of a possible 49 points.
16.03 out of a possible 17 points is something top-notch! These points made the new Mahindra XUV700, one of the highest-rated Indian-made vehicles tested since 2014.
“It’s very satisfying to see Mahindra demonstrating an ongoing commitment to vehicle safety with the five-star performing XUV700. High levels of occupant protection for adults and children are important indicators of the Indian automotive market moving towards an ever-higher level of consumer awareness and demand for safety.”
David Ward, President of the Towards Zero Foundation said
Mahindra XUV700 Test Score
A car must also pass a side impact protection test to receive a 5-star rating.
As a result, a side impact test was performed on a second vehicle. The Mahindra XUV700 did well in this category as well.
Mahindra XUV700 have some of the top-notch features like Dual front airbags, ABS or antilock brakes, and ISOFIX child seat anchors, side head curtain airbags, ESC (Electronic Stability Control), and even ADAS (Adaptive Cruise Control) (advanced driver assistance systems).
Mahindra XUV700:Features
In India, the XUV700 has introduced ADAS features like AEB (Automatic Emergency Braking) to the mainstream market.
“We always think that these technologies are the ones that are going to be leading in the next decade of action, to reduce or dramatically reduce and fatalities in the road users. The AEB system it’s not only for (preventing against) hitting another car, you can prevent also by detecting another road user, a pedestrian, and the vehicle can stop if you don’t do it on time.”
Alejandro Furas, Secretary-General of Global NCAP told carandbike
Global NCAP agreed to test the AEB on the automobile even though it was not necessary as part of its test protocol because the AX7 model features ADAS. As a result, it flew the top variant to Landsberg’s Penzing airbase. The vehicle’s ADAS systems were also put to the test.
“We were confident that the XUV700 will achieve a 5-star safety rating based on the internal tests done on the vehicle. We are building cars with maximum structural integrity loaded with tech-enabled features for maximum safety, performance and efficiency. In addition to the rating, it is heartening to be recognized by Global NCAP for being the first Indian made and owned brand to offer Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) as a safety option, part of ADAS.”
Speaking about the XUV700 crash test results, Velusamy R, Chief of Global Product Development, Mahindra & Mahindra said.
