Mahindra & Mahindra’s new passenger van based on the Jeeto Light Commercial Vehicle showed its face on the internet through spy pictures a couple of months back. We went a step even further to shed more light on the vehicle as the undisguised images of the all-new van had exclusively been photographed by us.
Mahindra has wasted no time apparently as it now entered the commercial market with an official launch as the Minivan is priced at Rs. 3.45 lakh (ex-showroom, Mumbai). The Jeeto played a pivotal role in Mahindra garnering one fifth of the small commercial vehicle segment and its van iteration will only look to build on its success.

In a similar fashion to the Magic Iris, the Jeeto minivan will make its mark in the market as an alternative to auto rickshaws in an affordable manner. It arrives with a five-seat configuration and there is an obvious presence of tarpaulin doors for lowering down the productions costs on the doors and rear windscreen and for better convenience to passengers. However, the third window row is rigid.
It comes in different colour options such as Sunrise Red, Ultramarine Blue and Diamond White. As for the powertrain, the Jeeto passenger minivan gets the same 625 cc m_Dura DI single-cylinder water-cooled diesel engine which is good enough to deliver a maximum power output of 16 hp and with 38 Nm of peak torque.
It has been made available in semi hard top version with hard top version to follow. Initially, the diesel engine is the only option as the petrol and CNG powertrains will join in the coming months. With claimed fuel economy of 26 kmpl, the new minivan vows to have the class-leading pick up and drivability. It comes equipped with large cabin space, cushioned seats and claims to have gear shifting similar to passenger car.
Mahindra has also introduced new financial and exchanging schemes to attract semi-urban and rural customers. With convenient low down payment options and flexible EMI solutions, the Mahindra Jeeto Minivan gets a best-in-class 2 year/ 40,000 km warranty.
