2025 Mahindra XUV 3XO will have five-star safety for ‘the real world', not ANCAP

Mahindra says its imminent new XUV 3XO small SUV will meet all of the crash requirements to keep its occupants safe in the real world, but it has not been tuned to ANCAP's specific requirements.
Having ran afoul of ANCAP's safety assessment standards with its vehicles in the past, notably for reasons such as crushing the barrier in which the Mahindra Scorpio crashed into (in other words, being too safe for its own occupants and not prioritising other vehicles on the road), the 3XO is likely to suffer a similar fate if ANCAP performs its own tests.
With the XUV 3XO already having scored 29.36 out of 32 for adult occupant protection and 43/49 for child occupant protection in local NCAP testing, and the fact Mahindra expects it to achieve similar results in Global NCAP testing, the Indian automaker is no doubt looking to establish the small SUV's real-world safety credentials regardless of whether it falls short of ANCAP's box-ticking requirements.

Last week, Mahindra demonstrated a crash test of the upcoming 3XO to Australian media at its newly developed crash testing facility at Chennai in India, to showcase the vehicle's structural rigidity and real-world crashworthiness. This test was conducted to 2026 ANCAP protocols with a moving barrier.
According to the company, the 3XO is composed of 30 per cent high-strength steel, 10 per cent ultra-high-strength steel and five per cent advanced high-strength steel. The rest of the vehicle is cast in mild steel. As a comparison, the current generation Nissan X-Trail is made up of around 35 per cent high-strength steel.
"In the real world, this is a five-star car," said a Mahindra spokesperson after the 3XO crash test.
"You can immediately see the structure is intact. The most important thing is the structure, so you don't see any deformation inside the cage. And the occupants are intact. The airbags are intact."
Responding to CarExpert about whether the brand has a desire to develop cars to meet ANCAP requirements, the Mahindra's president of Automotive Technology & Product Development, Velusamy R, said the company is more focused on developing cars to meet actual crash requirements rather than ticking boxes.
"I'm not very sure we are struggling on safety, but I would say we may be struggling to meet one of the regulations of the safety [for ANCAP]," Velusamy R said.
Mahindra says the 3XO has been designed for the following set of tests:
Vehicles coming to Australia will be fitted with Level 2 advanced driver assist systems (ADAS), including:
The Mahindra XUV 3XO is set to land in Australia in the coming weeks to compete against the likes of the Chery Tiggo 4 Pro and other popular small SUVs.
Although Mahindra will not voluntarily submit an example of the vehicle for ANCAP testing, given the high sales volumes in the small SUV segment there is a good chance the XUV 3XO will be tested by ANCAP regardless.

Toyota says its hybrids have saved nine million EVs worth of CO2

Toyota chairman Akio Toyoda has reinforced his company's commitment to prioritising hybrid vehicles (HEVs) over battery-electric vehicles (EVs or BEVs), outlining that hybrids are its ideal way forward in terms of reducing total CO2 emissions. Speaking through an interpreter in a recent interview with Automotive News, Toyoda-san said Toyota is as committed to reducing the environmental impact of cars as any other brand, but has adopted a cost- and time-effective way to go about reducing its carbon emissions. "When the term 'carbon neutrality' started to become popular and we started to hear about it, we set our target as a company saying that for us, the enemy is carbon," he said. "The way that we thought about it was that we're not going to contribute to achieving carbon neutrality just by building BEVs, but we have to focus on things that we can do now so that, immediately, we can reduce CO2 from the air.

"We looked at ourselves [and asked] 'what can we do with the things that we have to contribute to carbon neutrality?' That was the base of how we made our decision in those times, and that has not changed now, and will not change for the future." Toyoda-san is referring to the widespread rollout of hybrid vehicles, which dominate the Japanese brand's current model range. Toyota is credited with creating the first mass-produced hybrid car in the late 1990s, and has continued to develop the technology to the market-leading status it holds today. The company's passenger car lineup is now dominated by hybrids, evidenced by the Japanese brand's Australian axing of all petrol versions of cars that offer hybrid options in 2024. Hybrids continue to play a significant role in Toyota's global efforts too, not least in its home country. Toyoda-san claims that over the past five years, the focus on hybrids played a larger role in reducing Japanese CO2 emissions than EVs. Above: Toyota Hybrid range "If you can check the data for each country about the CO2 emission situation for the past five years, it's going to be very clear," Toyoda-san said. "For Japan, we had this weapon of hybrid vehicles, so with the hybrid vehicles, we were able to reduce 23 per cent of CO2 emissions in the same [time], and it was the only country that was able to achieve that." Toyoda-san added that his company has produced and delivered upwards of 27 million hybrids to date, and claimed that figure was "equivalent to nine million BEVs in terms of the contribution to carbon neutrality". "The hybrids that we made and sold had the same impact as nine million BEVs on the road, but if we were to make nine million BEVs in [Japan] it would have actually increased the CO2 emissions, not reduced, because we are relying on thermal powerplants." Despite that, Toyoda-san reaffirmed that HEVs aren't the only way forward, pointing to Toyota's continued development of internal combustion petrol and diesel engines (ICEs), as well as EVs, plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) and hydrogen fuel-cell electric vehicles (FCEVs). Toyota recently revealed the next-generation RAV4 mid-size SUV (above), which will be the brand's first PHEV in Australia. The Mirai FCEV is currently being used by corporate fleets and government partners locally via very limited leases, too. The Japanese auto giant is also part of an alliance with Subaru and Mazda to develop lower-emission ICEs into the future. "I think we shouldn't just focus on [BEV] … but we should look at all the options that we have and work in all directions," Toyoda-san said. "That will be similar to thinking as a person of the planet, not just from one perspective, but thinking about the whole planet, and then we can think about the various options and take the movements to reduce CO2 as much as possible. "I believe if everyone can support this way of thinking, it will be for the benefit of all the stakeholders too."
