Mahindra Xylo

The Mahindra Xylo is a compact MPV designed and manufactured by the Indian automobile manufacturer Mahindra & Mahindra from 2009 to 2019.
The project of the vehicle, codenamed "Ingenio", was first announced by Mahindra in 2006 and was designed to compete in the Indian market with the Toyota Innova and the Chevrolet Tavera. The project cost the company around Rs 550 crore. Production was started in Mahindra's Nashik plant in December 2008.
The Xylo was launched in India on 13 January 2009, with sales started in March 2009. Prior to its launch, more than 3,000 units were sold in the first full month. However, since then, sales have slowly declined, it is widely believed that the sales have not lived up to Mahindra's expectations. The Xylo was loosely based on the ladder frame platform from the Mahindra Scorpio. The chassis was modified in order to take account of the Xylo's longer wheelbase and higher refinement requirements. It is available with a number of seating configurations, including a 8-seater with two up front and two benches, or a 7-seater with two up front, middle-row captain seats and a rear bench. For safety features, some trim levels may come standard with dual front airbags and ABS with EBD....
