The Mahindra TUV300 T10 features and details have
been revealed ahead of its official launch via brochure scans and a TVC. The
range-topping T10 trim is available with manual as well as AMT.
Exterior features added to the Mahindra TUV300 T10
include black chrome grille inserts and fog lamp surrounds. The headlamps get a
carbon black finish. Metallic grey finish for the alloy wheels, roof rails, and
spare wheel cover round off the exterior updates. Dual tone exterior colour
options were introduced in October last year and continue.
The most significant addition to the TUV300’s
equipment list is the 7-inch touchscreen. It offers navigation, Bluetooth, USB,
and AUX support. The Mahindra TUV300 T10 trim also gets a faux leather seat upholstery.
While Mahindra has confirmed that its carlines will gain Android Auto over the
next 12 months or so, the TUV300’s touchscreen does not seem to support that
feature just yet.
At the time of its launch in September 2015,
Mahindra offered the TUV300 with the 1.5 L mHawk80 diesel with 5-speed manual
transmission and 5-speed AMT choices. A more powerful mHawk100 variant was
added months later with the same transmissions. However, according to the
brochure, only the mHawk100 variant, available in T8 and T10 trims, gets the
5-speed AMT option. The 84 bhp version of the 1.5 L diesel will be limited to
just T4, T4+, T6, and T6+ trims.
The
Mahindra TUV300 T10 will go on sale sometime this month. Expect the T10 trim to
cost around INR 50,000 more than the T8, which retails for INR 9.20 lakhs
(Ex-showroom Delhi).
