A Failed Experiment.

A Failed Experiment.

Seeing the successful journey of Xylo, Mahindra seemed to be experimenting it in micro family class. But the confused designers have made me think that is it a SUV, a hatchback or a cross-over? This car has a capacity of seven passengers but no one can sit on those rear jump seats. Interiors are disappointing and it seems like a chopped Xylo from outside. A 1.5 ltr 1453cc diesel engine gives mileage of just 17kmpl on highways which is not enough to satisfy a micro-family person. The ride is very uncomfortable on rough Indian roads. It seems like there are no suspensions in any wheel. This declines it being a family car. But for a family of four to five members, it has quite enough space and height. I am using this car for last four years and it hardly goes for any maintenance except for changing Mobil-oil or small repairs. So its a maintenance free ride. You can rely on it for long and safe journeys. Quanto is priced between 7 lac to 8.56 lac and it completely satisfies its value for money tag. It can be bought as a taxi or a long distance convince but I will suggest to buy a regular hatchback or SUV instead of Mahindra Quanto.
