Mahindra Xylo MPV facelift spotted!

The Mahindra Xylo is the second largest selling MPV in India and though its sales haven’t been big enough to knock the best selling Toyota Innova off its perch at the top, the Xylo has comprehensively outsold the Tata Grande MPV to emerge as the second largest selling MPV in India, though a distant second behind the Innova. Now, it seems that Mahindra&Mahindra want to give the Xylo a mid career makeover to make it look more appealing as the competition in the Indian MPV space is set to hot up in the coming months.

Facelifted Mahindra Xylo MPV Spyshot

The facelifted version of the Mahindra Xylo MPV has been caught on camera by a Team-Bhpian. While the spy shot shows a heavily camouflaged Xylo, changes to the exterior are not discernible due to the heavy camouflaging. However, the person who spotted this MPV claims that the facelifted Xylo’s interiors are a big improvement over the current version’s interiors. That is quite plausible as the Xylo will face more than some heat in the coming months with Toyota coming out with a facelifted Innova and Maruti Suzuki readying up the Ertiga MPV.

Also, Toyota will bump up production of the facelifted Innova MPV to dramatically cut waiting periods, in a move that could affect the Xylo’s fortunes hard. So, Mahindra facelifting the Xylo to keep the MPV’s appeal intact is the need of the day and we won’t be too surprised if the facelifted Xylo MPV is launched at around the same time as the facelifted Innova. With the facelifted Innova to be launched in January, the facelifted Xylo too could be launched around the same period. All said, it would be quite interesting to see what Mahindra has lined up for the Xylo in the facelift.
