Mahindra’s TUV 300 is cannibalising sales of NuvoSport as it offer better styling and more features compared to the old model at a similar price range

Mahindra officially introduced NuvoSport in 2016 as a replacement model for Quanto. The NuvoSport is basically sub-4 metre model based on Xylo. The company had tried to give a different look compared to Xylo which it is based on but customers didn’t accept the overall proportions of NuvoSport.

From start of 2018 sales were not good for NuvoSport as the company has sold the model in single units only and last month, zero units were sold which hint that Mahindra might stopped the production of NuvoSport and it will be officially discontinued soon. The NuvoSport is one of the very few models which come with 7 seater configuration.
