Under the hood, the 2018 Mahindra XUV500 facelift will continue with the same 2.2-litre mHawk engine, which is now expected to make more power and torque. The SUV will also come with the existing 2.2-litre mHawk petrol engine that makes 140 bhp and 320 Nm of peak torque. While the diesel motor will get the option of both a manual and an automatic transmission, the petrol is likely to come only with the auto box.
