Mahindra U301 Compact SUV Spy Story

The Mahindra U301 that is the nickname for Mahindra’s up-coming compact SUV was marked on trials yet again another time, but these imageries display the sample with manufacture head lamp clusters. The light clusters in a rectangular shape endure little similitude to the Bolero that is flaunted to be substituted with the Mahindra U301.

 

The fore facade of the Mahindra U301 also acquires an XUV-esque precipitously organized grille, though the horizontal outline exposes short projections, signifying a sub-4 meter measurement. Supporting its compacted proportions is the extra wheel that is straddling on the back door.

 

The U301 is described to be grounded on a hydro formed ladder-casing chassis, quite similar to the new Scorpio, with a rear-wheel drive design. Power is predictable to derive from a fresh new 1.5L diesel dynamo paired to a 5-speed manual and automated manual gearing system. It rests to be grasped if the U301 acquires a petrol engine, or even all-wheel drive competence.

 

Top-end versions of the Mahindra U301 would be gifted a touchscreen infotainment system, steering-mounted controls, dual airbags with ABS, alloy wheels, and perhaps also a climate control system. Though, what is still not confirmed and still remains quite mysterious is if the U301 would acquire a 5+2 seating draft just like the Quanto or the usual 5 seat layout.

 

Now, this is still a big question, unanswered right now, as the compact deans are more and more lining up to flood the market, but the show stopper would be the one offering the maximum seating capacity, after all that surely would be the game changing factor.

 

We assume if the Mahindra U301, grants a larger seating volume, it could definitely take the lead, as the present successful compacted sedans like the Renault Duster or the Eco Sport by Ford, definitely is doing great, but an additional seat volume would be like an add on for sure!
