My dream - TUV 300 T8 MT, delivered to me by India Garage on 7th Dec 2015.

Exterior The look is excellent. Where ever i park in th ehighway, i have other travelers taking a pic of MY TUV 300 T8. The looks are very classy & gives a royal feel. Even though she looks tough, she is a baby to handle. Looking at her coming towards them, I have many state transport bus drivers give way. Truly, this is the "lovely beast" that i always dreamt of.  Thanks team Mahindra.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The interiors are also classy. The seating arrangement is comfortable & the angle of the seats are very "body friendly". The fetures like the infotainment system, windsheild clearners, the streering mounted audio & phone control, are all excellent.  Even after a drive of 765 kms of a drive in a single day, i or my family dont have back aches or body pains. The engine sound never comes inside the vehicle.  Lovely product from the stables of Mahindra.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The moment the "eco" mode is truned of while on the drive, the she simply charges up like a derby horse starts galopping on reaching the home streach. It gives a feel like that of a aeroplane on its take off run. The mileage can be imporved as my TUV is giving me 11-12 kms with AC in Bangalore city & 15-16 kms with AC on the highway. This is on "eco" mode. Changing of gears in any speed is like moving a feather, but the clutch is very hard. Probably Mahindra needs to look into this angle.

Ride Quality & Handling The ride is like sailing on a cloud. Tarmac/Terrain/Offroad - she is a baby. The vehicle glides thru any kind of a road & even on the busy roads of Bangalore, manovering her thru the hopeless traffic jams or small roads, is very easy. My 3 year old son just loves the vehicle & kisses it when ever he is in it. I can say that the happiness i see on my sons face is worth a trillion dollors.

Final Words TUV 300 T8 MT that I have is the only thing I talk of.  Its an awsome vehicle but for the fule economy & the hard clutch,  If someone can take these 2 in their stride, then I would say that TUV is the champion from the Mahindras.

Areas of improvement As I have been telling thru out - fuel economy & hardness of the clutch 2 key things that needs to be looked into by the Mahindra.  Otherwise I feel that all is good & is beyond expectations on many counts.

Great style, spacious, lovely feeling while on drive & truly a family (T) SUV.Fuel economy can be improved, clutch is hard, spare wheel placement is a little bad.
