Mahindra XUV300 / S201 compact SUV’s first TVC released

Mahindra XUV 300, which had been codenamed as the S201 has released its first official TVC. The all-new car will be launched in the Indian market soon and Mahindra has revealed quite a few details of the upcoming car. Apart from releasing the pictures and features, Mahindra has also released a TV commercial for the XUV 300.

The TVC reveals the Mahindra XUV 300 completely. The video has been shot in dark, which makes the LED DRLs shine prominently. It gets a unique and elaboratively designed DRL, which would make it easily identifiable on the road. The all-new Mahindra XUV 300 gets projector headlamps and they look quite good at night.

At the rear, the all-new XUV 300 gets a black bumper with a silver skid plate and split tail lamps. It also gets a sunroof, 17-inch alloy wheels and cladding on the wheel arches on the outside. The XUV 300 also gets a number of segment-first features. The features include a dual-zone climate control system, 7 airbag system, 4-disc brakes on all the wheels, the longest wheelbase in the segment and highest torque in the segment.

Mahindra will also offer a dual-tone dashboard with the touchscreen infotainment system, steering mounted controls, cruise control, sunroof, leather seats and more. The engine details have not been revealed yet but Mahindra is expected to launch an all-new 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine with the XUV 300. The diesel variants of the car are expected to get the same 1.5-litre, four-cylinder diesel engine that also powers the Mahindra Marazzo. At the moment, only a manual transmission would be on offer for the XUV 300 but soon, the Indian manufacturer would launch the AMT automatic transmission with the all-new XUV 300.

Interestingly, this is an FWD monocoque car. It would not get any 4X4 option even at a later stage. The Mahindra XUV 300 would take on the likes of Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza, Tata Nexon and Ford EcoSport. However, it would be priced at a premium and the higher-end variants would fall in the Hyundai Creta price segment. Mahindra would formally announce the price of the vehicle soon n India and it would be followed by a long wheelbase version of the vehicle that gets 7-seats.
