Mahindra 90k & 10k Updates

Welcome to the latest update on our Mahindra pickup testing program! We've got two vehicles now, the original S10 manual test vehicle that many of you have been following for a couple of years and our new S11 automatic.

Our S10 has just clocked over 90,000 kilometres, while our S11 pickup has just hit 10,000 kilometres. We've recently put these vehicles through a rigorous torture test on Alva Beach, and we've got plenty of good footage that you'll see around that one.

Despite some wear and tear, especially on the clutch of the S10, we're pretty happy with how these vehicles have been holding up. We've made a few fixes, like a new clutch and an overhaul on the rear wheel cylinders, but these are within expectations given how the vehicles have been used.

Our S11 automatic, the "Red Rocket", had a diff failure at 1,500 kilometres due to a faulty component. However, Mahindra quickly replaced the part, and since then, the vehicle has been completely faultless. The automatic transmission performs well, and it's proven its power on the beach, even when towing a camper.

We'll continue documenting any faults, repairs, or failures for as long as possible. If you're thinking about a Mahindra, stay tuned, if you want to see us continue to test this vehicle. Feel free to comment if you've had similar experiences, as your feedback can help everyone.

As always, we'll check in on these vehicles again soon, with the next update on the S10 expected around 100,000 kilometres. Stay tuned, and thanks for watching!
