Mahindra Celebrates 10th Anniversary In SA

Mahindra Celebrates 10th Anniversary In SA

Date: 2014-05-30
Mahindra, which is building a reputation as a supplier of value-for-money vehicles is launching an additional, more affordable derivative of its XUV500 mid-sized SUV to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the multinational company setting up a subsidiary in South Africa.

"Mahindra products not only offer very good value for money, but are also reliable and durable, which has resulted in steady sales growth in the decade we have been in South Africa," said the CEO of Mahindra SA, Ashok Thakur. "Often a motor company launches a higher priced model to mark an anniversary or special occasion, but we decided to introduce the W4 model of the XUV500 to make this even more affordable. In fact, the price of R249995 is R30000 lower than the existing XUV500.

The W4 has the same mechanical specification as the other XUV500 models, which means a 2.2-litre mHawk turbo diesel engine developing 103kW of power and 330N.m of torque, driving the front wheels through a six-speed manual transmission.

Bringing the price down so substantially has meant deleting some of the XUV500 features found on the W6 and W8 models, but the W4 is still very well equipped. Standard features include: projection headlamps, an audio system with four speakers which has CD/MP3, iPod and USB capability and connectivity, air conditioning, electric windows, electrically-adjustable exterior rear view mirrors, power steering with tilting steering column, remote tailgate opening and fold-flat second and third rows of seats for load versatility.

For more information on the Mahindra range contact Mahindra Umhlali on 032 947 2463 or visit their showroom at the BP Garage in Salt Rock.
