Mahinda Shows Confidence In SA

Mahinda Shows Confidence In SA

Date: 2013-12-20
The Mahindra Group, a 16.2-billion Dollar multinational based in Mumbai, India, has given a vote of confidence to doing business in South Africa and on the African continent with the decision to hold its annual Blue Chip company conference in Cape Town this year.

In his opening address at the Cape Town International Conference Centre on Monday, December 2, the chairman and managing director of the Mahindra Group, Anand Mahindra, said: "The fact that we are holding this very important corporate conference in Cape Town signifies the importance with which the Mahindra Group views the business potential of the African continent. 

Mahindra recently entered the increasingly competitive compact SUV market with its very spacious Mahindra Quanto. It is targeted at the lifestyle market and was previewed at the Johannesburg International Motor Show recently and has now gone on sale at more than 60 dealerships countrywide, priced at R199900.

South Africa is the first country outside India to market this boldly-styled new addition to the growing Mahindra range of SUVs. The Mahindra Quanto is the perfect multi opportunity vehicle that combines the mobility of a SUV, the utility of a MPV and the comfort of a sedan. 

Besides being exceptionally spacious the new model is powered by a 2.2-litre mHawk turbo diesel engine, which develops 89kW of power and a class-leading 290Nm of torque. It also delivers outstanding fuel economy of 7.6l per 100km on the combined test cycle. 

Safety features include two airbags in front, anti-skid brakes and side protection bars in the doors. 

The new Quanto SUV is covered by a 3-year/100 000km warranty and comes with a 3-year/60 000km service plan included in the purchase price. For more information contact Mahindra Umhlali on 032 947 2463.
