The Mahindra KUV100 NXT is currently available in K2, K2+, K4+, K6+, K8 and K8 Dual Tone trims. With the BS-VI upgrade, the K2, K6+ and the K8 Dual Tone trims will be discontinued. Also, the 5-seat version will no longer be available, leaving buyers no choice but to go for the 6-seat version. The 1.2-litre mFalcon D75 turbocharged three-cylinder diesel engine that produces 77 BHP at 3,750 rpm and 190 Nm of torque at 1,750-2,250 rpm will also be discontinued.
Mahindra will upgrade only the 1.2-litre mFalcon G80 petrol engine of the KUV100 NXT to BS-VI. The BS-IV version of this naturally aspirated three-cylinder mill develops 82 BHP at 5,500 rpm and 115 Nm of torque at 3,500-3,600 rpm. Like the diesel engine, it is available with only a 5-speed manual transmission.
