Mahindra was announced the fastest-growing carmaker in the South African market which is a huge achievement for the Indian auto giant.
The kind of success Mahindra XUV700 is enjoying in the South African market can be gauged by over a year of waiting period. Now, it is not all that common for a Mahindra product to have such a long waiting period for its SUV for a market like South Africa. But ever since its launch, reviewers and customers have been in awe of the 7-seat SUV. In fact, in comparison to other similar products in the market, XUV700 offers the best value-for-money proposition.
