Mahindra & Mahindra is likely to reach about 125,000 FY2027 sales on the CNG XUV 3XO.
For operators
Mahindra's XUV 3XO and XUV300 have passed 505,590 wholesales, and with a factory-fitted CNG version due on 15 October, dealers should prepare for CNG demand alongside the ICE and EV versions.
Watch
FY2027 sales tracking past the 125,000 expected, at the Q3 FY2027 results, would mean CNG is adding volume rather than just shifting petrol and diesel buyers.
