Earlier, Mahindra Group Chairman Anand Mahindra had announced that the XUV would be presented to the gold medalists of the Tokyo Olympics 2020. For this, a special vehicle called Javelin Edition has been launched. Subsequent Gold Editions will be handed over to Neeraj Chopra and Avani Lakhera. Special color and badging are included in the vehicle. Mahindra has also come up with a golden theme for the car. The only changes to the vehicle are the skin. All other features are similar to the standard models.
The company had earlier said that it had already received 65,000 bookings since the launch of the XUV 700. Normal customer deliveries have also started. Mahindra aims to launch at least 14,000 XUV 700s by January 14, 2022. The ex-showroom price of the XUV ranges from Rs 12.49 lakh to Rs 22.89 lakh.
