There are no changes in design as also in terms of the engine. The XUV500 W3 gets the same 2.2-litre diesel engine which is good enough for 153 bhp and 360 Nm of torque. It will be available with the 6-speed manual transmission and will come with safety features like dual front airbags and ABS with EBD as standard. Though it's the base variant, it's not just bear minimum in terms of features. The W3 variant gets power adjustable ORVMs, Engine immobilizer, electrically operated dual HVAC and even projector headlamps and it doesn't miss out on the LED DRLs either or even the chrome grille.
