Mahindra & Mahindra will launch the elongated version of the TUV300 subcompact SUV – Mahindra TUV300 Plus – in June, 2018, claims a report. Sitting on a longer wheelbase, the new model will receive minor styling upgrades including the stretched body behind the C-pillar and newly-designed taillamps. The SUV’s longer version will come with multiple seating configurations.
Unlike its standard TUV300 that uses a 100bhp, 1.5-litre mHwk diesel engine, the Mahindra TUV300 Plus will come with a 2.2-litre mHawk, four-cylinder diesel motor that’s good for 120bhp. Feeding power to the wheels will be a 6-speed manual gearbox. Read – Mahindra XUV500 Facelift Is Ready For Launch

Save for the extended dimensions and new taillamp, the overall design and styling of the SUV will remain unchanged. The list of features, too, will be carried over from the smaller TUV300. However, the Mahindra TUV300 Plus will offer more cabin space.
