The Indian commercial vehicle market just got a powerful new addition with the launch of the Mahindra Veero LCV, designed specifically for the light commerce vehicle (LCV) segment. With a payload capacity of up to 2 tons, the Veero sets a new benchmark in its class, offering a perfect blend of strength, safety, and advanced technology.
Built to Lead: Soch Se Aage
The tagline “Soch Se Aage” perfectly captures the essence of the Mahindra Veero. This LCV is not just a vehicle but a revolution in the under-3.5 ton category. Mahindra has built it on the Urbon Prosper platform, known for its incredible strength and rigidity. The company proudly claims, “Sab kuch gir jayega, lekin cabin kabhi nahi girega,” emphasizing the unmatched safety standards. Thanks to the AIS 096 safety protocols, paired with airbags and a robust frame, the cabin remains secure no matter what.
Class-Leading Performance
At the heart of the Mahindra Veero is its powerful 1.5-litre MDi diesel engine, churning out 80 hp and 210 Nm of torque. For those who prefer an eco-friendly option, the turbocharged mCNG variant offers 90 hp and the same impressive torque. With a best-in-class mileage of 18.4 kmpl (ARAI-certified), thanks to start/stop technology and a fuel-coaching system, the Veero is as efficient as it is powerful.
This vehicle also boasts a next-generation frame with a high-strength chassis, ensuring a stable and comfortable ride. Mahindra claims the Veero is 25% more stable than its competitors when on the road, and the 5 front and 8 rear leaf springs provide superior suspension.
Ultimate Comfort and Design
When it comes to design, Mahindra has gone above and beyond. The “tough bumper-in-bumper” design ensures durability, while the full flat seats and D+2 seating arrangement make long journeys more comfortable for drivers and passengers alike. The cabin is 14% longer and 5% wider than its closest competitors, providing ample space and reducing driver fatigue.
Inside, you’ll find a 26 cm infotainment system, steering-mounted controls, power windows, and even a reverse parking camera. These features make the Veero not just a workhorse but a sophisticated ride for modern drivers.
Unmatched Safety and Visibility
Safety has been taken up a notch in the Mahindra Veero, being the first in its segment to offer driver airbags. The cabin also boasts a robust ring structure with enhanced joint stiffness, using 62% high-strength steel – the highest in its class. With a best-in-class 5.1-meter turning radius and 209-degree all-round visibility, the Veero is perfect for navigating tight urban spaces.
Built for Heavy Loads
Mahindra knows that payload capacity matters in the LCV segment, and the Veero delivers on that front. Offering options for 1,600 kg payload with either a 10 ft or 9 ft cargo body, the Veero caters to a wide range of commercial needs. With a 3,035 mm cargo length, it ensures you can haul more in one trip, improving your business’s efficiency.
Impressive Industry Presence
The Mahindra Veero has already made a significant impact on the commercial vehicle industry, capturing a 36% share of the LCV segment. Mahindra & Mahindra itself boasts a 27% market share, and with the Veero, that number is set to rise. The vehicle’s rugged design, unbeatable features, and innovative technology make it a top contender in the market.
Pricing and Variants
Mahindra offers the Veero in three variants to suit various needs:
- V2 Variant: Starts at ₹7.99 lakh
- V4 Variant: Starts at ₹8.99 lakh
- V6 Variant: Starts at ₹9.49 lakh
With a 1-year roadside assistance plan and a 3-year/100,000 km standard warranty, along with zero labor charges for up to 70,000 km, the Veero delivers long-term value to businesses.
Conclusion
The Mahindra Veero is a game-changer in the LCV segment, designed for businesses that need a reliable, durable, and efficient workhorse. With its class-leading payload capacity, advanced safety features, and cutting-edge technology, the Veero truly embodies the spirit of “Soch Se Aage.” Whether you’re navigating tight urban streets or hauling heavy loads, the Veero is up to the task, making it a worthy investment for any business.
