Leading auto-major, Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) have added another feather to its cap.

The much-awaited Mahindra XYLO was launched on Tuesday by M&M Ltd at its Nashik plant.

Experts believe XYLO as the most complete car with luxury comforts to enter the Indian market with everything that today's sedans offer and much more. Xylo comes with a 2.5l m-Eagle CRDe engine. The powerful 2.49 litre mEagle CRDe engine is fuel-efficient and delivers 112 bhp, allowing you to literally fly from 0-60 kmph in just 5.8 seconds. The car is supported with four variants E2, E4, E6 and E8 and currently is available only in diesel version. M&M has rolled out XYLO to compete with the Toyota Innova.

Priced at Rs 624,500, XYLO will be available at 57 select Mahindra dealerships in January and another 44 dealerships from February.

Commenting over the launch, Anand Mahindra, vice chairman and managing director, Mahindra Group said, “With the launch of the Mahindra XYLO, the era of sedans is under serious threat! The famed Mahindra DNA of 'tough & rugged' meets an unprecedented level of sophistication and luxurious comfort in the XYLO. The XYLO is the 'Great Indian Traveling Machine' and will redefine the future of road travel in India.”

He further added that some of the leading vendors from India, Japan, the US and Germany have contributed to the development of this car. These included Bosch, Nippon, Subros and Lumax.
