Indian car maker Mahindra is all set to launch the new Verito Vibe tomorrow. The price of the car is expected to be about Rs. 5.3 Lakh ex-showroom in Delhi for the base varient. Looking at the teaser, it appears that Mahindra Verito Vibe is a compact saloon. It'll be a smaller (<4m) modification of the company's flagship sedan Verito. The company is expected to enter competition with the likes of Maruti Suzuki Swift, Ford Figo, Nissan Micra and others. The car is expected to be made available with Diesel engine at the launch and no Petrol varient has been planed. We'll only have to wait for official word on this tomorrow.
Because of the form factor and a smaller Renault K9K 1.5 liter dCi Diesel engine that outputs 68bhp, Vibe will enjoy excise duty benefits which will allow the car to be priced competitively. The car was first spotted during its trial run and suddenly gathered mixed reviews about its design.
AutocarIndia reports that the car was earlier expected to be a hatchback, but from the teasers, it seems to be a compact saloon with the boot hinged at the bottom of the rear windscreen. Mahindra has given the car a 2-box appearance instead of the 'chopped saloon' like that of Indigo eCS or Swift Dzire.
