This video, showing the unique lounge setup inside a brand-new Mahindra XUV700, has been shared on Instagram. It comes courtesy of DC2 Dilip Chhabria’s official page.

DC2 Mahindra XUV700 Interior
Following this, the video then reveals the main highlight of this XUV700, which is its interior. The rear right door opens, and we can note that the interior is completely finished in red leather upholstery. Also, instead of the standard bench-type seat in the middle row, there are two captain’s chairs.
Both of these seats feature unique patterns with white stitching all around. Apart from these seats, another major highlight of this interior is the addition of a control center between the two seats. This center armrest area can be seen equipped with a number of buttons, which most likely control the massaging functions of the seats.
In addition to this, there is also a fridge underneath the armrest, which has been added to increase the luxury appeal of this SUV. Also, the passenger-side seat has been given an extender as well, which connects it with the front passenger seat. It looks like a seat from an airline’s first-class cabin.
The rear seats, as well, have been given the same red leather upholstery. In fact, all of the trims and body panels on the inside are either wrapped in red or black leather.
The video then shows the front of the SUV, and we can observe that the red and black sporty yet luxurious theme has been continued here as well. Apart from this, not much has been changed except for the addition of multicolor LED ambient lighting on the dashboard.
DC Mahindra Thar
This is not the only Mahindra SUV that DC2 has designed. A little while ago, the company also modified the exterior as well as the interior of a new-generation Mahindra Thar. This particular Thar was given a Jeep Wrangler-styled front grille, bumper, and LED headlights, along with marker lights.
Other modifications of this SUV included massive 22- to 24-inch alloy wheels. The exact size of these wheels was not mentioned by the brand. As for the interior, this particular Thar features one of the most unique interiors. It gets unique red and black leather sports bucket seats with extra cushioning.
Also, one of the most important highlights of this Thar’s interior is the addition of not one but two sunroofs. There are also some carbon fiber elements that have been added to this SUV’s interior to make it appear more sporty. Apart from this Thar, DC2 is also known for making lounge interiors for popular models like the Toyota Innova and Fortuner, along with others.
