Mahindra Quanto test mule spotted in Brazil
After successfully rolling-out their mini Multi Utility Vehicle Quanto in the Indian market, the Indian auto giant Mahindra & Mahindra is now looking forward to try their luck in the other emerging foreign markets. Recently a test mule of Mahindra Quanto was spotted on Brazilian roads, indicating towards company’s plans of enhancing their foot prints of this latest mini MPV in other favorable markets.
The recent media reports show pictures of a series of Mahindra products caught testing in Brazil. It is to be mentioned here that company’s popular Sports Utility Vehicle Mahindra XUV 500 has been spotted in this country for a number of times earlier, and it was present there on this occasion time as well. While Mahindra Quanto was in partial camouflaging, the XUV 500 model was there without any covers.

However, what can prove a major hurdle for the company while launching the Quanto in Brazil is the absence of petrol version in this mini MPV’s line-up. It is to be mentioned here that the Brazilian market has been known as a dominating market for petrol run vehicles. Which demonstrates that if the company wants this vehicle to be as successful in Brazil as it is in India, they need to roll-out a small petrol engine powered version of Quanto there. The major competitor for the Quanto in Brazil (if company launches it in petrol version as well), will be the new age Ford EcoSport.

Quanto is competing with the likes of Premier Rio and Maruti’s Ertiga MPV. However, the company is yet to make any announcement related to the launch of new Quanto mini MPV in Brazil. Ones the Quanto’s launch schedule is finalized for this market, all related details and timeline for its launch will be released soon after.
