Mahindra XUV300 AMT is set to be launched soon

Before the entrance of Mahindra XUV300, the carmaker has already launched some models at the same segment, including Quanto and TUV300. However, none of these could reach the level of popularity as the XUV300. Last month, it is reported that Mahindra is no longer producing the automatic TUV300, ahead of the XUV300 automatic launch. Recently, Mahindra officially confirmed the discontinuation of the automatic TUV300 and removed it from the Mahindra’s official website.

Considering the initial success of the XUV300 with the manual transmission, the upcoming XUV300 AMT is expected to give rise to the sales of the sub-four-meter SUV. It is expected that the AMT will be available on the diesel range only.
