Mahindra XUV 3XO slated for an update. Teased ahead of launch
Mahindra, in a teaser video on its social media channel, has teased the upcoming updated version of the XUV 3XO sub-compact SUV. The upcoming Mahindra XUV 3XO is expected to receive a new variant. The teaser video gave us a glimpse of that. Despite being a short video, the latest teaser has revealed a few key differences.
The upcoming updated version of the Mahindra XUV 3XO will come with a fresh set of alloy wheels, possibly all blacked out to don a sportier vibe. Besides the black alloy wheels, the sub-compact SUV will get a panoramic sunroof, an electric vehicle-themed front grille and a Red-Black dual-tone exterior paint.

While initially, it was thought that Mahindra would introduce a facelifted iteration of the XUV 3XO, the sub-compact SUV is not up for a major makeover. However, a new variant is expected to be added to the lineup, which will further enhance its appeal to customers and allow buyers to select from a wider range of options for the SUV. Mahindra has not revealed when it will launch the new variant, but expect it to be launched soon in an attempt to capitalise on the growing demand for SUVs.
Mahindra XUV 3XO is placed in a segment that sees one of the toughest rivalries in the Indian passenger vehicle market. This same segment has models like Tata Nexon, Hyundai Venue, Skoda Kylaq, Maruti Suzuki Brezza, among others. Upon launch, the new variant of the XUV 3XO will further strengthen the SUV's case against the competitors.
Meanwhile, Mahindra is also working on an updated version of the XUV400 EV, which will essentially come as an all-electric version of the XUV 3XO. As the test mules have been spotted, despite the camouflage, they have revealed that the upcoming electric SUV will sport a design similar to the XUV 3XO. In that case, it will be a major departure from the design philosophy of the current XUV400 sports.

He was speaking on the sidelines of the Uber Pragati event in to him, a key driver of this transition is growing demand for affordable and flexible transport, especially in congested urban and semi-urban areas.

The company operates 25,000 electric vehicles (EVs) across two-, three-, and four-wheeler categories, comprising less than 2% of its 1.4 million active vehicles in India."EV adoption is growing, but penetration is definitely lower than I would like it to be," Singh said. He pointed to hurdles including high financing costs, unclear residual value of EVs, and inadequate charging infrastructure as key challenges slowing the transition.

Rupee inches up tracking regional peers, spotlight stays on tariffs

Close to deal with India, says Donald Trump amid flurry of letters
Image used for representative purposes NEW YORK/WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump on Monday said Washington is "close to making a deal with India" even as he announced reciprocal tariffs on more than a dozen countries, including close allies, late Monday (early Tuesday India time) while sparing New Delhi. "We have made a deal with the UK, we have made a deal with China, we are close to making a deal with India. Others, we met with, and we don't think we will be able to make a deal, so we just sent them a letter: if you want to play ball, this is what you have to pay. As far as I am concerned, we are done. We are sending out letters to various countries, asking them how much we have to pay," he told reporters. More letters are to be sent on Tuesday, he posted on Truth Social. Although this is not the first time that Trump has made claims about a deal with India - he again linked it to the ceasefire between India and Pakistan as well - this time he has made a distinction as he announced tariffs, effective Aug 1, for 14 countries, ranging from 25% (Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Kazakhstan and Tunisia) to 40% (Laos and Myanmar). Cambodia has seen a significant reduction, of 13 percentage points to 36%, compared to the tariffs announced in April, while there is an eight percentage point cut in the case of Laos. Japan and Malaysia have seen a one percentage point reduction. There was no comment from government on Tuesday amid intense speculation about when a deal could be announced. Govt sources said they were waiting for clarity from the White House as negotiations at the official level concluded last week. India has pledged to buy loads of American arms, energy, and other produce to whittle down the $45 billion trade deficit while making clear its reluctance to lowering duties on several farm and dairy products. Indian exporters are keen that a deal be closed quickly. 'With US imposing reciprocal tariffs on a dozen countries and advancing trade deals with partners like the UK and Vietnam, it is imperative that India and the US finalise a BTA at the earliest. A timely deal will not only shield Indian exports from uncertainty but also unlock new opportunities with comparative tariff advantages both in labour intensive and sunrise sectors. Strengthening this strategic trade partnership will send a strong signal of economic alignment and trust, benefiting businesses on both sides,' said Ajay Sahai, director general of the Federation of Indian Export Organisations. India and US have been engaged in talks for over four months now with a view to seal the first tranche of a bilateral trade pact by Fall (Sept-Oct). The announcement of reciprocal tariffs in early April pushed govt to seek a mini deal. The Aug 1 deadline set by Trump gives negotiators a few more days to bridge the gaps, although officials suggested that the US president has to take the final call on the deal with India. On Monday, Trump shot off missives to long-time allies Japan and South Korea, slapping them with 25% tariff. In letters riddled with random capitalisation and poor grammar and syntax, Trump told the prime minister of Japan, a US treaty ally, that the trade surplus Tokyo has run up against Washington constituted a 'major threat' to US national security. Identical letters citing threat to US national security was sent to leaders of Bosnia & Herzogovina (whose female President Zeljka Cvijanovic was addressed as Mr President), Cambodia and Bangladesh, which have small trade surpluses with Washington with exports in the paltry billions. Trump and his team also dialled down expectations of '90 deals in 90 days' that they had talked up at the start of the tariff war the US President initiated. Having negotiated only a framework for three sketchy agreements, Trump indicated most other countries would simply get a letter intimating them of tariff increases if they don't conclude an agreement by Aug 1. 'It's all done,' he maintained, even as aides acknowledged that instead of the White House phones 'ringing off the hook' as they anticipated, many countries had not even contacted them.
