Situated in South-Eastern Ladakh, Umling La is the highest motorable road in the world at 19300 feet. It is 1667 feet higher than Mt Everest Base camp, it is a global landmark.

Two petrol automatic XUV700s were driven from New Delhi all the way up to Umling La, in an initiative undertaken by carandbike. They covered Delhi to Manali on Day 1, Manali to Leh on Day 2, Leh to Hanle on Day 3, and reached Umling La on Day 4. This expedition saw the spirited performance of the XUV700 come to life in all its glory despite the gradually dipping oxygen as the vehicle gained altitude. The powerful 200PS XUV700 stood true to the Mahindra authentic SUV DNA and performed in an impeccable manner conquering high mountain passes, traversing through gravel, sand, mud, broken roads and asphalt laden roads. The XUV700 went through steep up-hill, down-hill and water-crossings with ease and made it to the top in style.

The XUV700s were driven by enthusiasts from the automotive fraternity, and the expedition was done in partnership with carandbike along with Auto Today.
