Mahindra XUV700 SUV Javelin Edition in a walkaround video

Mahindra launched XUV700 couple of months ago and the manufacturer had promised to gift custom made XUV700 SUVs to Gold medalists in Tokyo Olympics- Neeraj Chopra and Sumit Antil. Both of them had secured gold medals in Javelin throw in the Olympics. Sumit Antil secured the medal in Paralympics. Mahindra handed over the special edition or the Javelin Edition of XUV700 to the winners earlier this month and here we have a video of the Mahindra XUV700 Javelin Edition that was gifted to Paralympian Sumit Antil.

The video has been uploaded by Anubhav Chauhan on their YouTube channel and it is probably the first video on the internet showing  detailed walkaround of the XUV700 Javelin Edition. Vlogger shows all the changes that are there in the Javelin Edition in this video. He starts with the front end. The design of the XUV700 remains the same but, Mahindra has made some cosmetic changes to differentiate it from regular XUV700s.
