Mahindra U321 MPV (Toyota Innova rival) to launch in middle of next fiscal year - Report

First product developed by Mahindra North American Technical Centre (MNATC).

According to a source close to the company, M&M will launch a new product developed by the Mahindra North American Technical Centre (MNATC) in India in the middle of FY 2017-2018. The source hasn't revealed what it is, but we reckon that it's the Mahindra U321 MPV.

The U321 is reported to be based on a monocoque platform, although we're not sure about whether it's a brand new one or a modified XUV500 chassis.

The Toyota Innova-rival was spied testing on Indian roads in multiple instances, from which we have created the above render. It will feature the characteristic Mahindra toothed grille, large headlamps, heavily designed design and a strong shoulder line. The U321 is reported to be based on a monocoque platform, although we're not sure about whether it's a brand new one or a modified XUV500 chassis.

The Mahindra U321 could replace the ageing Mahindra Xylo MPV, and rival the Toyota Innova Crysta and Renault Lodgy.
