Mahindra Launched KUV100 Trip at Rs 5.16 lakh

KUV100 Trip is launched to targeted fleet operators and cab aggregators; to be sold in petrol-CNG and diesel fuel versions.

Mahindra has launched the KUV100 Trip, a new version of the KUV100 hatchback that is targeted at fleet operators and cab aggregators. Prices for the KUV100 Trip start at Rs 5.16 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) and top off at Rs 5.42 lakh.

Interestingly, the KUV100 Trip debuts a petrol-CNG option on the Mahindra small car. This ‘Bi-fuel’ version uses the same 1.2-litre, three-cylinder engine as the standard model and makes 82hp when running on petrol and 70hp when running on CNG. The CNG cylinder that’s stowed in the boot has a 60-litre volume. The other powertrain of choice is the 77hp, 1.2-litre diesel engine that’s shared with the standard car.

The KUV100 Trip is offered in a single variant and is based on the pre-facelift E2 version of the hatchback. Air-conditioning, power steering and internally adjustable rear-view mirrors are among the few creature comforts that are part of the package. ABS is standard and, in line with government guidelines for commercial vehicles, the KUV100 Trip also comes with an 80kph speed limiter.

The petrol-CNG Trip is on offer in five- and six-seat guises while the diesel will only be sold in six-seat form. 

To make the KUV100 Trip a more enticing option for fleet buyers, Mahindra will offer an attractively-priced annual maintenance contracts that works out to about Rs 0.35-0.40 per kilometre. Mahindra will also offer the option to upgrade the standard warranty to five years.
