The Coronavirus outbreak happened right at the brink of the BS6 transition timeline and put off many launches. Many models were updated to meet the BS6 emission norms well ahead of the deadline, while customers had to wait for some models which got delayed due to COVID-19. The BS6 Mahindra Marazzo is one of the anticipated models people have been curious about and we can now confirm that it will be launched soon. Mahindra has already started with the production of the BS6 Mahindra Marazzo and will be making an official price announcement shortly.

The Major update in the 2020 Mahindra Marazzo will be the BS6 compliant engine. The same 1.5-litre, four-cylinder, diesel engine has been upgraded to meet the emission standards. The powertrain belts out 121 bhp and 300 Nm of peak torque and is mated to a six-speed manual gearbox as standard. However, the model is expected to get an automatic transmission as well by the end of this year or in the first half of 2021. The Mahindra Marazzo is the first body-on-ladder vehicle with a front wheel drive set-up and the updated model will be based on the same construction.
