While we still await an official
announcement, a new image of the ABS-equipped Mahindra Mojo has surfaced
online. It is said that the Mahindra Mojo ABS will come in only one new
variant. Do note that Mahindra offered the Mojo in two variants – the XT300 and
UT300 – before 31 March.
Meanwhile, the report adds that the upcoming
Mahindra Mojo ABS will pack hardware such as conventional telescopic forks,
fuel injection and a single exhaust outlet. For reference, the XT variant of
the flagship Mahindra Two-wheeler received upside-down telescopic forks, dual
exhaust outlets, Pirelli tyres and fuel injection system while the UT version
packed conventional telescopic forks, single silencer, MRF tyres and a
carburettor. Thus, the upcoming model, if launched, will be a combination of
the XT and the UT variants that would be designed to offer a better
value-for-money proposition.
The Mahindra Mojo ABS may feature MRF tyres instead
of Pirelli tyres for competitive pricing. The instrument console will an additional
indicator, of ABS. The engine specifications will reportedly remain unchanged.
The BS-IV 294.72 cc single-cylinder, liquid cooled, DOHC motor with fuel
injection churns out 26.8 PS and 30 Nm of torque. It is paired with a six-speed
gearbox. Only the front disc brake will be governed by ABS.
The Mahindra Mojo UT300 and Mahindra Mojo XT300 were
priced at INR 1.50 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi) and INR 1.80 lakh (ex-showroom
Delhi) respectively, and the latter included LED DRLs. The Mahindra Mojo ABS
should also feature ABS, and according to a report, it will likely cost around
INR 2.20 lakh. This report says that the launch will take place after the
second week of June.
