Mahindra Quanto [2012-2016] User Reviews

Exterior

 nice, good finish, door and sheet joints have larger gap(particularly on rear door and front hood). 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 material is good, seats looks cheap(leather covers must). SPacious car

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 have driven 13000km with few long trips os 1300km in day.

engine performs nice. smooth ride at 110-120kmph.more than expected from 3 cyl car.

15-16kmpl fuel economy.

gearbox jerks on 3 rd gear. this problem is consistent after 10000km drive also. have to adjust with driving style.

Ride Quality & Handling

 good. I am facing malfunctioning in electronics. A serious problem during starting.

Final Words

 good car but came in market without performance research(electronic malfuctioning).

Areas of improvement  

 service part. must satisfy customers(at least during warrenty) to ensure further sales. Otherwise it would be a fiasco. Mechanical part is Good enough but electronics malfunctioning in not tolerable. It wont let the engine to start. 

 It took 20 days in resolving the problem and still in workshop.

Hope things would be improved to the earliest and want make me a sufferer from first car.

 

powerful. nice maneuvering, comfortable front seatsworst after sales service part...

Exterior

Looks Sporty Specially C8, According to Height and Width, Tires Are Small. Headlights and Tail lights are fitted in a fine manner

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Poor Plastic, Lot of sound in Cabin, Body Roll, Rear 2 and 3 Seats are very Uncomfertable,  Sometimes I didn't Feel Of Power Stearing, Air Condition Is Just OK, All Seats Are Not Comfy They are Very Hard. No Stearing Mounted Control.

In this price range I only found a car with lot of internal space, Music System is good with all the latest facility except Bluetooth

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Engine Performance is good, Within city never got average 10.5+ but exceptionally fine on highways if you manage speed of 90km then you will get around 21+, Gearbox is also fine tune.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Bumpy Ride, Normal and rough handling

Final Words

I have been using Quanto C6 for past 8 months, initially I think it's not a worth buy, but if I look into the price tag and Segment/Non Segments cars Like Swift Dzire, Polo, Duster 85PS, SX4, Ritz, Eco Sport, Ertiga then I feel worth buy. Because Quanto have lot of feature which might not have/available in other segment in the same price tag.

But if I again want to buy a new car then Quanto will not be my choice, might be I go for XUV 500 or Safari Strome

Areas of improvement  

Big flaw I have seen in after sales and service network, if you visit any of Mahindra service Center for any running repair they usually said we don't have any engineer who can assist you at this moment. Quality of service is also not up to the mark. 

 

Looks, Attractive Price, Features in this segmentLot of Body Roll, No Comfort on Highways

Exterior Good but need to have a different look than Xylo. Especially front side. It looks like a MUV & not a SUV.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Int are same as Xylo. Should be more premium. Front seats armrest quality is poor. Otherwise OK. Some of the features like snacks tray, bottle holders, two row of lamps are good.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Overall good. Does not feel exhausted.

Ride Quality & Handling Good. Good height, which gives good road visibility. Some amount of body roll.

Final Words Good buy except the a/c. The a/c is practically absent. It does not cool at all. The air does not even reach 2nd row. Third row feels suffocated. M&M must work on these aspects. Otherwise a very practical car in the given price. Mahindra could think on increasing the third row space by taking the spare wheel off the rear door and still maintain the length below 4m. 

Areas of improvement A/c must be improved. Also work on exterior front looks & third row seats / space.

SpaceVery poor a/c

Exterior Looks like a mini Xylo/ blood brother of Xylo, but not as good as Xylo exterior.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Here the Quanto catches everyone with its features at this price tag, where arm rest for front seats, ABS, Rear Washer with Defogger, DTE,AVG Mileage, AC meter, but the auto stop/start system provided is nuisance. Also the space and comfort in the first and middle row is excellent but third row is strictly suitable for 5.5 or Kids.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is really smooth and hard enough to handle the roads with its twin turbo, but still there is a lag till 1500 rpm, but after that u can fly with your vehicle by keeping others in your rear view mirror except the previous model SWIFT diesels as thier ride and handling is different and gem while comparing in this price tag. Decent Fuel economy for SUV i.e is 11-12kms/ltr in city with 100% AC and 16-17Kms/ltr in Highways with 100% AC. Gear Box is reasonably smooth but not as good as Premium hatchbacks/sedans.

Ride Quality & Handling Bumpy Ride even on a little humps and in speed breakers, with an avg speed of 60-65kmps Cornering confidence is good since its a tall boy and normally tall boys not be stable as one of the hatchbacks/sedans due to shorter wheelbase and width.  Body roll is there and one must have to take the test drive before going into it.

Final Words Reasonalbe VFM, Suitable for Joyfull weekends, if little bit Ride quality and handling is improved in quanto then surely there will be a waiting period equalent to swift @ sales.

Areas of improvement Ride and handling, A.S.S, quality of interior plastics, and overall exterior looks.

Twin Turbo System, Excellent spare wheel cover/design, Features provided.Body Roll, Bumpry Ride and Cheap quality of Interiors with Sharp edges.

Exterior Good looks and apearance.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Feature loaded , lot of space and confort. No one is tired after 500 KM . Plains or Hills kaccha or Pakka road or no road - it takes me smooth.. Loaded with features and so easy and confortable drive . Love it after 72000 KM.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Enigne is powerful and stong on highways and Hills as well,but dies at low rpm unless shiftt to 1st gear on mud  roads going uphill and its rainy.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality s great after yo get used to a litte rool.

Final Words Fantastic First SUV. Value for Money. Just experience it if you want an SUV at 8-9 lac range. Singleof Famil drive - it is all comfort.

Areas of improvement Please  wheels 18". Offer in Automatic version  and also 4 x 4 version, Add features like sun roof and climate controll and cruze control as options.I mean allow Quanto fans to upgrade whe they wish to invest and enjoy.

Power , Comfort and Milagesmall wheels

Final Word

I purchased my SUV on 28th December 2014 and have driven almost 11000 km purchased it for 8 lacks as i got a discount of 1 lack bcoz of year end discount. Absolutely no issues. I really dont understand what people want in this budget. I reasearched on this SUV for 1 year then took it. I also called the people who were selling their quanto on carwale and other websites. 

People should understand its not a car its a SUV so dont expect pickup like a car or handeling. Only people who want to buy a budget SUV and like to drive a SUV buy it.

I am really happy with My Quanto. 

any body has question feel free to call me on 9325585858

Areas of improvement  

 Scope of improvement on Gearbox and big tyres and if possible reduce the weight for more better pickup. Poor servecind done from Silverjublee motors pune hadapsar.

Try to improve the after sales service from Silver Jublee motors Pune

Ride Quality & Handling

 The car has some basic problems, U need to get your AC Filter choked in every 40-45 days, So in Summers its a challenge. Winters, Hot Air starts after driving of 8- 10 KM,(by the time you reach office), ABS Indicator Remains ON, Noisy Car, Irritating Noises from eithers Door, or Seats or Shocker will keep on troubling. One need to bear atleast one noise at a time.

Final Words

 Not worth Buying as Family vehicle.

Areas of improvement  

 Basic Design needs to be rechecked , Major Flaws in , AC, Blower, Noise ,ABS, May be they need to work on Quality Issues. Its beautiful Ride on Non Bumpy, Smell Free, NON (AC/Blower), With all features malfunctioning one by one, Just some carefullness would have made this a beautiful car. Any hows, Thats upto M&M to decide I bought it i regret it.
