5 Upcoming SUVs With Diesel Engines That Will Cost Less Than 20 Lakhs

Despite the fact that diesel vehicle sales have been declining, automakers think that diesel makes sense for larger SUVs. Diesel SUVs are more powerful and fuel efficient than their petrol counterparts. This article discusses the top 5 new SUVs that will be available with diesel engine choices in the near future.

MAHINDRA XUV700

Mahindra will debut the new XUV700 7-seater SUV, which will replace the XUV500, which is on its way out. The new vehicle will be built on a new monocoque chassis with a 4WD technology built in. The Tata Safari, Hyundai Alcazar, and MG Hector Plus will all compete against the new Mahindra XUV700.

The new 2.2-litre 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine in the new XUV700 7-seater SUV is expected to deliver about 185bhp of power and close to 400Nm of torque. The 2.0-litre turbocharged engine in the petrol variant is expected to provide approximately 200bhp of power. A 6-speed manual and a 6-speed torque converter automatic transmission will be available.
