Amongst the safety features Xylo comes with ABS, airbags and EBD. The MPV is doing pretty well by registering good number of sales every month. Mahindra Xylo is a tough competitor of Toyota Innova and Maruti Ertiga. Toyota Innova is the best seller in the MPV segment but Xylo is giving a neck to neck competition to Innova. Maruti’s Ertiga compact MPV has also received immense response from the Indian customers, the MPV has garnered as many as 32,000 booking within a month of its launch. Also Mahindra is readying itself to launch a mini version of Xylo, Mahindra Mini Xylo which could be launched in the domestic market any time soon.
