Mahindra seems to have silently discontinued the Alturas G4 2WD going by how the variant has been delisted from the brand’s website. This move might have been made due to the ongoing semiconductor chip shortage. Currently, only the 4WD variant of the Alturas G4 is available which is priced at ₹31.87 lakh ex-showroom. We don’t know yet if the Alturas G4 2WD will make a comeback later in the future.
Mahindra Alturas G4: A brief recap
In terms of powertrains, the BS6 Mahindra Alturas G4 continues to derive power from the same 2.2-litre, four-cylinder, turbo-diesel mill that produces 181 PS of maximum power and 420 Nm of peak torque. The engine comes paired with a Mercedes-Benz-sourced 7-speed automatic transmission.
In terms of dimensions, the Mahindra Alturas G4 is 4850 mm long, 1,960 mm wide, 1,845 mm tall, and has a wheelbase of 2,865 mm. The SUV continues to get the huge 7-slat piano-black grille with some chrome elements. For better illumination, the car features projector headlamps, with LED DRLs and LED foglamps. Just like the outgoing BS4 model, the updated Alturas G4 is well-packed in terms of features, with the entry-level 2WD version getting features like Nappa leather upholstery, a powered driver seat, cruise control, ventilated front seats, a powered tailgate, dual-zone climate control, heated wing mirrors, a tire pressure monitor, front and rear parking sensors, rear view camera, 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and cruise control, to name a few.
The Alturas G4 4WD gets even more kits including a 360-degree camera, a memory function for the driver’s seat, a powered tailgate, a sunroof, and ambient lighting among other features. Coming to safety features, Mahindra offers the base variant of Alturas G4 with safety tech like dual front airbags, ABS with EBD, front and rear parking sensors, a 360-degree camera, Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Hill-Start Assist (HSA), Hill-Descent Control (HDC), active rollover protection, traction control system and brake assist system.
