Mahindra’s Three Upcoming SUVs in India: What to Expect
2024 is shaping up to be a pivotal year for Mahindra in the Indian automobile market. As we eagerly anticipate the unveiling of various new SUV models, including the electrifying XUV.e8, our focus here will be on the internal combustion engine (ICE) based SUVs scheduled for a debut in the first half of the year.
1. Mahindra XUV300 Facelift: In early 2024, Mahindra is poised to launch a significantly updated version of the XUV300. This revamped model has already been spotted during test runs. Inspired by the upcoming BEV range and XUV700, it will feature a redesigned front fascia, while modifications are expected at the rear as well. Notably, the cabin will see a myriad of upgrades, including a panoramic sunroof – a welcome change for enhancing the premium feel. While major changes in the powertrain lineup aren’t anticipated, the introduction of a new automatic gearbox might be on the cards.
2. Mahindra 5-Door Thar: Undoubtedly one of the most awaited launches of 2024 is the 5-door version of the Mahindra Thar. It promises a larger size compared to its 3-door counterpart, ensuring more room for passengers and possibly an increased boot space. Its chassis is likely to be similar to the one in the Scorpio N, with minimal visual changes. However, the interior is expected to be packed with new gadgets and technologies, without compromising its off-roading prowess. Powering the beast will be the 2.0-liter mStallion petrol and 2.2-liter mHawk diesel engines, available in both manual and automatic transmission options.
3. Mahindra Bolero Neo Plus: Recently, the ambulance variant of the Bolero Neo Plus was launched. In the coming months, the civilian version is expected to hit the roads, as several test sightings have been reported. Though there’s no official confirmation yet, the Bolero Neo Plus will likely be available in both seven and nine-seater configurations. Under its hood, it will be powered by a 2.2-liter mHawk four-cylinder diesel engine, paired exclusively with a manual transmission.
2024 promises to be a thrilling year for SUV enthusiasts, with Mahindra leading the charge with its diverse offerings.
