HOUSTON — Mahindra announces an addition to its Retriever utility vehicle lines, its 83 horsepower Retriever 1000cc gas engine. The new model reaches speeds up to 60 mph and delivers 2,500 lbs. of towing capacity. This sportier version of the Retriever provides a new option for customers requiring more speed and power. It is available in signature Mahindra red, olive green and authentic RealTree AP camo and offers a choice of black or aluminum wheels.
“Our dealers are enjoying great success with the Retriever lineup and we are pleased to add the 83 horsepower model to fill the needs for an expanded customer group. With more colors and engine options, there is a model to fit the many different uses for utility vehicles on farms, multi-acre properties and for outdoor sports,” said Matt Glendon, director of utility vehicles, Mahindra NA.
The utility vehicle product line, rebranded as Retriever and expanded with 24 new models in 2017, was introduced at Mahindra’s National Dealer Meeting last fall. Since debuting in 2015, Mahindra is now the fastest-growing brand in the utility vehicle category. The Retriever utility vehicle offers great performance at any altitude and a comfortable ride through a continuously variable transmission providing seamless shifting, a smooth take-off and low vibration. The Retriever 1000 gas engine UTV carries Mahindra’s 3-year limited powertrain warranty.
