Mahindra just does not want to stop and rest on its past laurels. The recently launched XUV 500 has already been sold like hot cakes and even the bookings have been stopped for the car due to heavy consumer demand. In this situation instead of walking away happily to the banks the company is planning to launch yet another trend setter called the mini Xylo based on the Xylo.
The company is in fact on a huge expansion spree and the launch of the Xylo is looked upon as foray into the small car segment and entry level SUV segment. The car is expected to make it to the roads by the end of November 2011. The car price is also set to create some huge ripples in the market with a starting price of just 4 lakhs for the base variant. The cheaper version of the Xylo will be though of the same quality but will lack on some high end features of the standard Xylo. The car will still carry the same finesse and charisma.
The cost of the car is expected to give some stiff competition not only to the likes of suv but also to some of the hatch backs like the Maruti Swift. The car will also be adorned with some superb interiors and exteriors ready to make any one take immediate liking for the car. The looks, the stance of the car and the strong build are some of the key highlights. The huge front is however a common sight these days. The alloy wheels and dials are something that could have been avoided.
The car also has a unique tilt-able steering wheel which offers a perfect driving position to driver. The car can easily seat up to five people and also two jump seats for the kids. Some of the key features are the digital driver assist, the wide arm rest for the front row and passenger foot rest along with easy entry and exit.
The car is expected to give a run for the money to the likes of Maruti Wagon R, Maruti A-star, Hyundai Santro, Chevrolet beat, Ford Figo, Ford Punto, Maruti Swift and Hyundai i20. However, one must note that the mini Xylo is a first of its kind car and as such there is no competition to the vehicle.
The Xylo mini specifications include Independent Coil Springs, Multi Link Coil Springs for better shock absorbing and smoother ride. The braking system is front disk type and rear drum type break. The car is equipped with a 5 speed manual gear. The tyre size for the Mahindra Xylo Mini measures 215/75 R15. The Xylo mini for a cheap suv does have most of the features like like power windows, Remote Fuel Filler, Rear wiper, manually adjustable driver seat and a rear AC vent that a consumer expects in any car. The car is expected to target the B+ segment audience who are looking for an entry level car and yet have some fun at the same time. Overall the car is expected to a grand hit in Indian market.
