‘Growing up, I always dreamed of owning a car that stood out from the rest. I was fascinated by unique and exclusive SUVs and always promised myself that one day I, too, would own something different. That day has arrived, and I am the proud owner of a custom-built SUV- the Mahindra TUV Stinger’
Kapil Sanghvi is an affluent businessman who was keen on buying a new SUV, but just any car wouldn’t do. Being someone who has always boldly done things on his own terms, be it his business or lifestyle, he wanted an SUV that would truly reflect his personality. After exploring options from multiple manufacturers, Kapil concluded that if he had to buy a car, it had to be something unique and uncommon. That’s when he heard about Mahindra Customisation- Mahindra’s automobile division that is dedicated to transforming the group’s vehicles into extremely unique, individual and personalised vehicles. Once this had been decided, the obvious choice was the fully loaded, top variant, Mahindra TUV300. Being a compact SUV with authentic SUV characteristics, made it perfect for Kapil and his wife, Mansi, not just for urban jaunts, but to explore and go on adventures. Trips to their farmhouse, which takes them on rough and broken roads, is a struggle for normal vehicles. The Stinger's design and performance make it comfortable and capable at the same time. The powerful mHAWK100 diesel engine of the TUV300, coupled with the cushion suspension technology, is perfect for this. It offers enhanced ride comfort across all surfaces and effortless driving on long journeys.
