Mahindra has launched the facelift of the TUV300, and it gets a bunch of design changes as also additional features. Prices for the TUV300 facelift start at Rs. 8.49 lakh to Rs. 10.49 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). The silhouette of the TUV300 remains the same and the distinctive boxy SUV dimensions too remain unchanged. However, there are a few additions which make the car look more muscular and aggressive too. To begin with there's the piano black front grille with black chrome inserts, side cladding & a newly designed X-shaped metallic grey spare wheel cover. The new headlamp design with daytime running lamps (DRLs) and carbon black finish add to the style quotient of the TUV300.
