In this review, we will explore the interior, exterior, performance and safety of the Mahindra Jeeto.

What to Expect from Mahindra Jeeto?

Besides these two, the Jeeto lineup also offers a comfortable interior with features to enhance productivity. Its customers can expect to save money on fuel costs and it also gives a higher earning chance thanks to its large cargo area and lower maintenance.

Overview

Mahindra Jeeto mini truck can be used for a variety of delivery applications such as courier, pharma, e-commerce, bakery, poultry, gas cylinder, FMCG etc. It delivers optimal power and pickup in urban areas plus its compact size ensures quicker turnaround time.

The Jeeto lineup has eight different variants, while the Jeeto Plus series has four variants available in India. The highest payload capacity is offered by the Jeeto Plus Diesel and Petrol variants with 715 kg, while the Jeeto variants come with either 600 kg or 700 kg depending upon the variant.

Exterior

The Mahindra Jeeto range offers semi forward design for better safety of the driver. The vehicle also has great visibility thanks to its bigger windshield. Its minimalist front fascia resonates with customers who seek simple and tough design.

The semi-forward design also gives it a unique and attractive look. The front grille, headlamps and bumper with provision to install fog lamps, all give it a unique identity that stands out on the road. The Jeeto lineup is available in 5 colours: diamond white, sunrise red, ultramarine blue, premium beige and mango yellow, while the Jeeto Plus is available in the first three colours only.

From the side, a cargo box with up to 715 kg (for Jeeto Plus Petrol and Diesel) payload capacity, black coloured ORVMs and 12 inch radial tyres are given that make it appear taller and longer. The longest wheelbase of 2500 mm (Jeeto Plus Petrol and Diesel) is given which improves the stability of this truck.

Interior

The Mahindra Jeeto interior has a simple and clean design. The dual tone interior certainly looks attractive, it doesn’t have many features. The cabin has an adjustable driver seat with headrests, semi digital instrument cluster, a mobile charging port and a dash-mounted gear lever that are useful and convenient.
Performance

Mahindra Jeeto lineup delivers optimal power for urban delivery applications. The Jeeto range is powered by the BS6 compliant, single cylinder, 625 cc engines that produce enough power and pickup to carry their heavy cargo loads.

All models are connected to a 4 speed manual transmission for precise gear shifts. The Jeeto Plus Petrol variant delivers the maximum power and torque with 23 HP and 48 Nm. The top speed of 80 km/hr is higher compared to other competitors.

Safety

Mahindra Jeeto is a safety oriented mini truck and both the driver and the cargo are protected on the road. The rigid chassis and radial tyres both support the cargo weight effectively. The disc brakes at the front and drum brakes at the rear form a solid and low maintenance braking system.

Moreover, the Jeeto lineup has McPherson strut (IFS for Jeeto Plus Diesel and CNG) suspension at the front and semi trailing arm suspension at the rear for extra strength and stability to carry heavy loads. The semi forward design, seatbelts and headrests all are very useful for providing safety in the case of a frontal collision.
