The all new Mahindra Quanto AMT, is expected to mark its presence in the domestic market of our country, carrying a price tag in between INR 6.5 Lakhs ? INR 8 Lakhs, estimated to be the ex-showroom prices in the capital city. Now let us get closer to the car in a bid to know more just before its launch is expected to take place in the following month of September, 2015.

Overview of the Mahindra Quanto AMT: While the brand Mahindra entered the compact SUV market with the Quanto. Mahindra that has always been recognized being the number one value vehicle maker of the country has always been engaged into offering diverse products on its various platforms. This sub 4m SUV segment is already held well by names like the EcoSport by Ford, Renault Duster, Nissan Terrano, Hyundai Creta and a lot many new comers. The Mahindra Quanto is the soul 7 seater compact SUV in the native market of the country.

Now, they are adding more of bells and whistles of fancy and necessities like the latest technology to all its portfolio cars, Mahindra has announced an AMT variant of the standard Quanto. While the design of the car would strongly remain the same but then there would be a opportune alteration in its transmission while the AMT would be offered The AMT system has been presented in the country by the brand Maruti Suzuki in Celerio hatchback. Shortly, it went viral in the market with most of the buyers stepping down in the similar feature in the cars.

Mahindra Quanto AMT was presented at the Auto Expo 2014 in held in the capital city that managed to attract a lot of media and customer attention. It also bragged of the other upgrades that comprise regenerative brakes. This makes use of Kinetic energy and converts it into prospective energy. There are claims that emphasize that this technology could enhance the 40L of fuel each year.

Performance of Mahindra Quanto AMT : Because of the change in the transmission unit that is certainly new, Mahindra Quanto AMT would produce the similar engine pattern as a compared to the existing Quanto. It would sport a 1.5L, 3 cylinder mCR100 unit that acquires a twin stage turbo charger. This unit would be able to churn out a maximum power output of 100 bhp at 3750 rpm and a torque of 240 Nm @ a range of 1600 to 2800 rpm. To add on to the 5 speed manual gear box, it would acquire a 5 speed AMT transmission too.

It has an advanced small unit and it lacks the passion. The engine is not a rev friendly motor and was forced to work and generate a favorable performance. On highways, the motor looks like going sown on the power especially beyond 3800 rpm. The engine appears to be weak highways and desires to shift gears earlier than normal. Though, on city roads, the engine executes extraordinarily.

The Automated Manual Shift would make it enormously easy to move the Mahindra Quanto commuting within the daily traffic of the city as it removes the pressure of changing gears every now and then manually. It would have just 2 pedals similar to any automatic transmission car. Though, the operation is a little different than an automatic. This box too similar to the Celerio would acquire hydraulic accentuators to shift the gear by electronic means using a processing motor that estimates the specific engine speed and shifts gears for that reason. It would downshift automatically in manual mode but would not upshift like a usual AT unit.

Verdict on Mahindra Quanto AMT : While formally by the brand the Mahindra Quanto AMT would acquire a revolutionary benefit in the SUV AMT segment as at the moment there isn?t any other company planning to launch the AMT in their compact SUVs.

It is an evident thought that the Indian utility vehicle leader would house these AMT boxes in its other offerings as well. Right after the Mahindra Quanto AMT, the Verito sedan and the Verito Vibe hatch would be fortified with these units and would lead this segment in the native market of the country. The pricing of the car is also planned and kept just a little over than the regular Quanto model.
