Hierdie nuwe produk van Mahindra is duidelik vir die mark bedoel. Dit word die XUV300 (drie dubbel nul) genoem en pas mooi in tussen sy twee familielede, die klein KUV100 en die groter XUV500.
Die “Spirit of Amarok Media Challenge” is in April 2019 naby Nelspruit gehou met 30 motor joernaliste wat deelgeneem het. Die “Spirit of Africa” en “Spirit of Amarok” staan onder die leiding van die legendariese Suid-Afrikaanse renjaer, Sarel van Merwe.
Met ‘n geskiedesnis van goeie en duursame bakkies het Mitsubishi in April 2019 hulle Triton bakkie ‘n nuwe voorkoms gegee en daarby sommer ook ‘n hele paar verbeterings aangebring.
