The facelifted Mahindra KUV100 has officially gone on sale in India. The refreshed model comes with about 40 new updates and features which is why the company has rechristened it ‘KUV100 NXT’. Karthick Annamalai examines the claim.
Mahindra and Mahindra, the doyen of Jeep Manufacturing in India and the pioneering SUV manufacturer, was once the king of SUVs with its Bolero and Scorpio brands. At that time, the manufacturer declared that they would not venture into developing hatchbacks and sedans.
India’s love for the SUV, especially with poor road conditions is growing exponentially and this came as a shot in the arm for a manufacturer like Mahindra.

We check out how much of a difference it really makes.Design
The design has not changed in any remarkable way with the advent of the NXT, however, there are many subtle changes. The headlamp design is more upmarket and it retains the DRL.
