Powertrain
1.2L mStallion TCMPFi Turbo ZNG (petrol + CNG): The low running cost 3XO that still drives like a turbo: full power on gas, and the twin cylinders sit under a flat boot floor. The boot shrinks to 270 litres from 364 on petrol and diesel, and it comes only with the 6-speed manual.

What the AX5 CNG MT costs on the road
The price above is ex-showroom. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the AX5 CNG MT comes to ₹11,78,100 on the road in Itanagar and ₹13,56,685 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹1,78,585 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price this variant in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest and Karnataka highest. You pay it where you live, so take this as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as a way to save money.
Comprehensive own-damage cover is on top of both figures: it has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer, the cover value and your no-claim bonus, so no honest single number exists for it. Budget for it from real quotes.

The full story
At ₹11.19L ex-showroom this is the 22nd of 39 XUV 3XO variants by price, ₹10,000 above the REVX EDGE (O) Diesel MT. The same AX5 features start at ₹89,000 less as the AX5 Turbo Petrol MT; the extra here buys the CNG with the 6-speed manual. Stepping up to REVX A from here starts at ₹9,000 more and buys sunroof (Panoramic against Single-pane) and auto-dimming mirror among 3 additions. Worth knowing that the REVX A is not sold with the CNG with the 6-speed manual, so the move changes the powertrain too.

Mahindra XUV 3XO AX5: the questions people ask
Price, on-road total, engine and what this trim goes without.
- What is the price of the Mahindra XUV 3XO AX5 CNG MT?
- ₹11.19L, ex-showroom. That makes it 22nd of 39 by price, ₹10,000 above the REVX EDGE (O) Diesel MT.
- What is the on-road price of the Mahindra XUV 3XO AX5 CNG MT?
- Expect ₹11,78,100 in Itanagar and ₹13,56,685 in Bengaluru. Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so the identical car costs ₹1,78,585 more at one end of the country than the other. That is the ex-showroom price plus road tax, registration and the rest of the charges, across the 25 states we have verified. It does not include comprehensive own-damage cover, which every insurer prices differently.
- Which engine and gearbox does the Mahindra XUV 3XO AX5 CNG MT have?
- The CNG, 111 PS, with the 6-speed manual. The maker's figure for it is 24.7 km/kg.
- What features does the Mahindra XUV 3XO AX5 CNG MT get?
- The features worth naming on this trim: Tyre pressure monitor, Connected car tech, Dual-zone climate control, Headlamps (Bi-LED projector), Rear parking camera and Driver display (10.25" digital).
- What does the Mahindra XUV 3XO AX5 CNG MT miss out on?
- The REVX A above it adds sunroof (Panoramic against Single-pane), auto-dimming mirror and leatherette upholstery, for ₹9,000 more. That is a different engine or gearbox though: the REVX A is not sold with this one.
- Is the AX5 the right XUV 3XO to buy?
- That depends on where the value sits across the whole range rather than on this trim alone, and we work it out variant by variant on our Mahindra XUV 3XO which-variant page. The short answer: pay for a step only where the features it adds are ones you would actually use.
