Mahindra is all set to launch its compact SUV, the TUV 300 tomorrow. The car came out with some of the most innovative and catchy promotional campaigns but in its bid to so, it also sacrificed its mystique cultivation. Pictures of TUV 300 were leaked online during the shoot of their latest advertisement, but even this blunder did not manage to hamper the excitement for the car. TUV 300 is expected to rival the likes of Maruti S Cross, Ford Ecosport, Renault Duster and many others. The car will be manufactured out of Mahindra's Pune-based Chakan production facility.

TUV300 will fall in a price bracket of Rs 6.50 lakh – Rs 8.50 lakh (ex-showroom) and will feature the 1.5-litre mHawk80 diesel engine that produces 80bhp and 230Nm of torque. This engine will be mated to a five-speed manual and AMT transmission. It is likely that the AMT mechanism will be exclusively available for the top-end models.

The car will also come loaded with equipment like a 2-DIN music system and a large touchscreen infotainment system. To enhance connectivity, the car will also offer Bluetooth, USB and AUX-in. Other creature comforts will include power windows and an LCD display unit center console with polygonal cluster.
