LADA Granta Drive Active – production launch

LADA announces the expansion of the most popular in Russia LADA Granta family. The production of the sedan in the Drive Active version was launched. The car is created for fans of energetic driving style. Short-stroke suspension of sports type from LADA Sport allows to reduce rolls and improves steerability in high speed turns. Anatomical front seats with developed lateral support increase comfort and a sense of connection with the car. Design of LADA Granta Drive Active is created in accordance with “X-graphics”, branded LADA DNA and emphasizes the sports character of the model. Specially shaped bumpers, sill fairings and spoiler on the trunk – laconic and distinctive features appeared after wind-tunnel test. Style-forming exterior details are emphasized with red moldings on bumpers. The same bright color is used in interior trim: the leather steering wheel braid is decorated with red stitching, bright inserts are used in seat upholstery and the instrument cluster got red lighting.
In terms of style LADA Granta Drive Active has something in common with the LADA Vesta Sport – chrome pipe exhaust system was borrowed from the “older” model. Light alloy wheels are made in the similar style, which pattern of spokes is added by black lacquer and diamond polishing. In total, 28 new parts and assemblies are applied in LADA Granta Drive Active.
LADA Granta Drive Active will be produced with two variants of powertrain: a 1.6-liter engine making 106 HP and with manual or automated manual transmissions. Just a remind that in the LADA Granta family AMT received the “Sport” mode, in which both the engine and the gearbox operate in a special dynamic algorithm. The basic trim level of LADA Granta Drive Active will include air conditioning and audio system. The prices and the date of sales start will be announced later.

It’s Mafanikio for Mahindra South Africa

According to the recently released figures by the National Association of Automobile Manufacturers of South Africa (NAAMSA), Mahindra has emerged as one of the fastest-growing automotive brands in South Africa. Surpassing its sales volume target for 2019 of 5,664 units by September this year, Mahindra SA is now on track to reach a new overall sales record in the South African passenger vehicle and pickup market.

This Mafanikio (success) is particularly significant given the general economic slowdown in the country. While overall vehicle sales until September 2019 were down 3.5%, Mahindra grew by a remarkable 33.4%. Mahindra’s parts division also grew in line with new vehicle sales and is up by 36% over the same period last year.

The 2019 sales success follows an aggressive marketing and expansion phase, which started in May 2018 with the official opening of the assembly facility for the Mahindra Pik Up range in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal.

This facility assembles the entire Mahindra Pik Up range for South Africa and neighboring countries. Since then, Mahindra Automotive has refreshed two of its most popular models, the entry-level KUV100 NXT and the large XUV500 for the South African market.

Rajesh Gupta, CEO, Mahindra South Africa, said, “We are humbled by the support we have received from the growing number of Mahindra fans and customers, and also from our dealer network and staff. We believe that our mix of desirable SUVs and pick-ups which offer fantastic value for money, our growing network of dealers and our history of solid customer service over the last decade-and-a-half have given us the platform from which we can grow in this tough market.”
