Mahindra is a name of strong repute in the Indian market. The UV giant launched the XUV700 in the country last year, and it received 50,000 orders in a very short span of time. Well, the waiting period for the Mahindra XUV700 is indeed long. In fact, the Mahindra Group Chairman - Anand Mahindra, is not able to get the delivery of the XUV700 for himself. The industrialist recently revealed the same in reply to the tweet of shuttler Chirag Shetty, when he asked about the delivery status of his XUV700.
Anand Mahindra tweeted, “Since that makes the XUV7OO the Choice Of Champions we will have to work extra hard to get it to you ASAP. @vijaynakra I hope you see this! (By the way, I’ve ordered one for my wife & I’m still in Q! ) Sadly, the global supply chain disruptions are plaguing all car companies).”
