Mahindra Marazzo Finally Gets an AMT Variant

The Mahindra Marazzo MPV which is currently offered with only a diesel-manual powertrain since its launch in 2018. A diesel-automatic option has been in the plans for a long time and so the Mahindra MPV Marazzo will get a new diesel-AMT option soon. Expect it to be launched in the coming weeks in the month of February or March 2021.

The Marazzo’s 1.5-litre diesel engine makes 121PS and 300Nm and the only transmission on offer is the 6-speed manual as of now. It will soon get a 6-speed AMT option, just like the Mahindra XUV300 sub-compact SUV. According to the RTO document, the AMT option will be offered from the base-spec onwards. The Marazzo is available in three variants: M2, M4+ and M6+. Each trim gets the choice of 7-seater and 8-seater configurations.

In the case of the Mahindra Marazzo, the AMT option would likely add a premium of around Rs 50,000 over the current prices which range from Rs 11.64 lakh to Rs 13.80 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).

Marazzo does not have a direct rival as it is priced above Suzuki Ertiga and much below Toyota Innova Crysta. Marazzo is also expected to get a petrol engine in near future.
