Mahindra KUV100 NXT

Mahindra offers the KUV100 NXT BS6 only in four variants: K2+, K4+, K6+, and K8.
It loses out on its diesel engine option.
The BS6 upgrade has hiked prices uniformly by Rs 22,000 across all variants.
It is still powered by the 1.2-litre petrol engine (82PS/115Nm) and comes mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox.
Mahindra has priced the cross-hatchback in the range of Rs 5.54 lakh to Rs 7.15 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).

We had earlier reported about Mahindra’s plan to axe the diesel engine of the KUV100 NXT in the BS6 era. The cross-hatchback is now a petrol-only offering owing to the BS6 upgrade. It is now available only in four variants with only a 6-seater layout: K2+, K4+, K6+, and K8.

Variant (Petrol)	BS4 Prices	BS6 Prices	Difference
K2 6-seater	Rs 4.88 lakh	-	-
K2+ 6-seater	Rs 5.32 lakh	Rs 5.54 lakh	Rs 22,000
K4+ 5-seater	Rs 5.73 lakh	-	-
K4+ 6-seater	Rs 5.79 lakh	Rs 6.01 lakh	Rs 22,000
K6+ 5-seater	Rs 6.31 lakh	-	-
K6+ 6-seater	Rs 6.31 lakh	Rs 6.53 lakh	Rs 22,000
K8 5-seater	Rs 6.87 lakh	-	-
K8 6-seater	Rs 6.93 lakh	Rs 7.15 lakh	Rs 22,000
K8 6-seater Dual Tone	Rs 7.01 lakh	-	-

As seen in the table, the prices of the K2+, K4+, K6+, and K8 variants with the 6-seater layout have gone up uniformly by Rs 22,000. Mahindra has discontinued the 5-seater configuration as well as the earlier base-spec K2 variant.

The only change that’s come with the BS6 upgrade is that Mahindra now offers the mild-hybrid tech only in the top-spec K8 6-seater variant while it was offered in both K6+ and K8 variants earlier.
