The shape of tailaamps are similar but this time it gets some aero head treatment. Also the side is similar to XUV400. It has the same pillar and roofline even the 16 inch alloy wheels are also same as XUV300.

The major change in interior is the black theme. The XUV300 comes with black-white dual tone interior. Here the XUV400 comes with monotone black interior. The dashboard layout is also same as XUV300. If has same steering wheel, same screen, same climate modules. The bronze inserts over the Mahindra logo, climate control and AC vents are distinct from the XUV300.
