Mahindra S201 compact SUV: 5 things that make it a potential Maruti Brezza BEATER
Friday, September 28, 2018 IST
Mahindra has been keeping itself quite busy lately. The company recently launched the Marazzo MPV and will bring the next-gen Rexton SUV soon, though with the Mahindra name and badging. But the company has been quietly preparing to launch a compact SUV to take on vehicles, such as the Vitara Brezza and EcoSport. The monocoque-bodied S201 SUV will resemble the SsangYong Tivoli, in terms of looks, but will have unique front and rear styling. It will come with many segment-first features to boot. Let’s take a look at how the car fares against the competition, in particular the Brezza.
Powerful Engine
The Mahindra S201 will be powered by the same 1.5-litre four-cylinder diesel engine that sits under the introduced Marazzo MPV. The motor produces 123 Bhp of power and 300 Nm of torque. This makes the S201 the most powerful entry in the compact SUV segment. The Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza, on the other hand, comes with a 1.3-litre diesel engine churning out 90 Bhp of power and 200 Nm of torque.
Enhanced safety and features
Mahindra is leaving no stone unturned and has loaded the S201 to the brim with features. The company will reportedly equip the SUV with seven airbags, which is a segment first. The car will also get other safety features, such as ABS, ESP and rear parking sensors among others.
It will also come with four-wheel disc brakes and will be the first compact SUV to do so. Also, top-spec S201s are expected to come with stylish 17-inch alloy wheels, currently only offered on the Ford EcoSport Signature and S trims. The Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza comes with 16-inch alloy wheels in comparison.
