The interiors of the 2021 Mahindra XUV500 have also received several changes like twin horizontal mounted screens, one for the infotainment system and the second one is the instrument cluster. Other key features include a panoramic sunroof, leather upholstery, a dual-zone climate control system, a flat-bottom steering wheel, USB charging ports and a separate selector for the connected car system.

The 2021 XUV500 would be powered by a 2.0-litre mStallion petrol engine which is expected to generate a max output of 190hp power and the other option would a 2.2-litre turbocharged diesel engine which is expected to develop a maximum power figure of 180hp. Both the engines would come mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox as standard along with an optional 6-speed torque converter automatic gearbox.

Mahindra was planning to launch a total of 8 new SUVs in 2021, with the new engine and transmission options but India is lacking the key components parts extending the deadline for launches and causing a huge loss to Mahindra and a lot of other car manufacturers as well.
