Even amidst this lockdown, Mahindra has launched the BS6 KUV 100NXT. This cross-hatch has been in our market in its present guise since 2017 but has now been updated to comply with the stricter emission norms. Mahindra has launched the BS6 KUV 100NXT for a price of Rs 5.50 lakh and it goes all the way up to Rs 7.12 lakh, all prices are ex-showroom Mumbai. The BS6 KUV 100NXT is now available in four trims.
With the BS6 update, Mahindra has discontinued the previous base K2 trim of the KUV 100NXT. Now thus available in four variants, the KUV 100NXT can be had in either a 5-seater or a 6-seater configuration. Mahindra has also dropped the 1.2L diesel engine from the lineup due to poor sales and its now available as a petrol only model. Here’s a variant-wise price list of the BS6 Mahindra KUV 100NXT :
BS6 KUV 100NXT Variant | Price |
K2+ | Rs 5.50 lakh |
K4+ | Rs 5.96 lakh |
K6+ | Rs 6.78 lakh |
K8 | Rs 7.12 lakh |
The most notable change has only been the BS6 compliance for the KUV 100NXT. It continues to be powered by a 1.2L, three-cylinder petrol engine that produces the same 83hp and 115Nm of peak torque, just as the BS4-spec model. The engine comes mated only to a 5-speed manual gearbox.
