A 5-speed manual gearbox or a 5-speed Automated Manual is offered for the naturally aspirated engine while the turbopetrol engine is paired to either a 5-speed manual or CVT.

Mahindra XUV300 – From R242 999
The XUV300 compact crossover is perhaps the most accomplished and stylish product offering in Mahindra’s local lineup and points to a distinct shift in perception for the brand. The updated XUV300 was arrived on local soil earlier this year. Both petrol and diesel engines are on offer but for those who prefer petrol power, the XUV300 1.2T is powered by a turbocharged 1.2-litre petrol engine with 81 kW and 200 Nm of torque and is mated with a 6-speed manual transmission. The diesel XUV300 1.5TD is powered by a 1.5-litre turbodiesel engine with 86 kW and 300 Nm and is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission but the XUV300 1.5TD W6 is priced outside of this list.
Monthly repayments start from approximately R4 502 per month.
