Interior Upgrades and Comfort Enhancements
Practicality should be enhanced by features like an internally operated fuel lid, rear camera, rear wash and wiper, and power windows that move to the door pads. An A-pillar handle has also been fitted by Mahindra to facilitate climbing in and out. The SUV’s 26.03 cm HD touchscreen infotainment system with support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is the most significant change.
Exterior Design Changes
Tango Red and Battleship Grey are the palette’s first additions, and customers can select from six different colour schemes. A new steering wheel and an all-black dashboard layout have given the interior of the vehicle a darker, more upscale feel. The driver now enjoys a sliding armrest and, in automatic variants, a separate dead pedal, while the second-row passengers now have rear air conditioning vents.
Engine Options and Performance
The well-known 2.2-litre mHawk diesel has a maximum power output of 130 horsepower and a maximum torque of 300 Nm. A D117 CRDe diesel mill with a tuning of 117 horsepower and 300 Nm is also present. Six-speed manual and six-speed torque converter automatic transmissions are available, and they can be combined with either rear-wheel drive or a 4X4 system with an electronic driveline disconnect.
Adventure-Oriented Features
Off-road enthusiasts will value Adventure Stats Gen II, which records information like altitude, trip details, tyre pressure, and steering angle in real time. It is also equipped with Type-C charging connections in both rows and a Tyre Direction Monitoring System. Mahindra still sells the 2.0-litre mStallion turbocharged petrol engine, which produces 150 horsepower and up to 320 Nm of torque depending on the gearbox.
