Mahindra SA adds higher-spec KUV100 Nxt K6+ #Dare to local range

Mahindra South Africa has added a new KUV100 Nxt K6+ #Dare derivative to its local range, pricing the newcomer at R195 999.

Interestingly, the price of the model on which it is based, the K6+ petrol, has been reduced to R184 999 (down from R191 999).

The latest addition joins the K2+ #Dare variant that launched in November 2019, and like its sibling is converted at a new special fitment centre in Gauteng. The local arm of the Indian firm says it has decided to make the #Dare models permanent members of the KUV100 Nxt range.

Pricing:

Mahindra KUV100 Nxt K2: R142 999

Mahindra expands local KUV100 range with new K6+ #DARE model

The Mahindra KUV100 NXt is not all that unfamiliar to South Africans. The little city car does duty against the likes of the Renault Kwid and Datsun Go, and always looks to get one over its rivals thanks to its comprehensive package.

Following the success of the K2+ #DARE model, Mahindra announced in January 2020 that it will expand the #DARE range. Build at the automaker’s Special Fitment Centre in Gauteng, the #DARE range is created alongside models such as the S11 Pik Up Karoo AT.

SEE | The 5 cheapest diesel-powered cars on sale in SA today

With the price of fuel taking another dip at the end of the month, it sparked a thought to scour through the South African carpool - looking for the cheapest diesel passenger cars in South Africa.

Interestingly, not many automakers have diesel engines lower down their model line-ups, while some, like Mahindra, are riddled with diesel offerings.

The Indian automaker offers nine vehicles in its line-up, of which six cater to the passenger car market. The other three are bakkies.

Ford is the only other automaker to have made our '5 affordable diesel cars' lists with one of its vehicles, but also just. Its EcoSport came in at a slightly lower price than the Renault Duster TechRoad (R298 900) and another Mahindra, the XUV500 W4 (R314 999).

There is a purpose to this list. In the wake of Covid-19, the South African economy will take a slump, and consumers will look to affordable new cars. Maybe a diesel option. Add to that a lower price of fuel, including diesel, and the fact that you get more range from a diesel-powered vehicle, and suddenly your horizons are broadened.

Check out the five most affordable diesel cars in SA’s new car market.

KUV100 Nxt D75 K6+ - R219 999

XUV300 1.5TD W4 - R234 999

Thar 2.5 CRDe 4x4 - R242 999

TUV300 1.5 CRDe T8 - R254 999

Ford EcoSport 1.5 TDCi Ambiente - R289 900

Pricing! Mahindra SA launches KUV100 Nxt K2+ #Xprez panel van

With South Africa’s half-tonne bakkie segment limited to just Nissan’s NP200, more and more brands are offering a small panel van alternative. The latest is Mahindra, with its wordily named KUV100 Nxt K2+ #Xprez.

Bearing a starting price of R174 999, the Indian firm’s newcomer undercuts both the Hyundai Grand i10 1,0 Motion Cargo (R196 500) and the Kia Picanto 1,0 Runner (R203 995).

Based on the KUV100 NXT K2+ hatchback, the panel van is converted at Mahindra’s fitment centre in Gauteng. The process includes the addition of a “highly durable” flat load area in the place of the rear bench plus a pair of cargo nets.

Its load capacity is listed as 350 kg, with packing space measuring a claimed 1 350 litres. The side and rear windows have been blanked off, each also gaining metal barriers.

@eg2505 what is your thoughts on this Indian car? Are you anti-Indian cars as well

@eg2505 what is your thoughts on this Indian car? Are you anti-Indian cars as well

besides the fact they skimp on essential parts, like parts that arent screwed in at all (Renualt Kwid door cards that not even screwed in at all)
they at least honest and don't blatantly copy designs from the rest of the world.

My one friend owns a Xylo. Epic car that.

Epic in what way?

Would you spend R230K on one of these or a 1-2 year old Polo/Golf/Astra/Fiesta?

1-2 year old Golf/Polo with balance of factory warranty (and hopefully a bit of maintenance or service plan) for me, thanks.
