Mahindra Economy

by JEEPER
(KERALA, INDIA)

"Mahindra Economy" - It's a very rare model of Mahindra with a combination of Mahindra DI engine, 4-wheel drive, and new generation chassis and suspension. It's a sibling of Mahindra's famous model "Marshal".


I got this vehicle in an auction by Forest Department in very good condition as it was used for the Forest Research Institutes in campus travels. Almost in stock condition.

Powering with a 2.5-L MDI3200 A diesel engine that delivered a peak power output of 58 hp while the peak torque output stood at 161 Nm. This engine came mated to a 4-speed gearbox which was operated using a single dry plate type clutch. In addition to this, the Marshal also featured a 4WD drivetrain with dedicated high and low gear ratios. The suspension setup on the other hand consisted of semi-elliptical leaf springs with hydraulic double-acting telescopic shock absorbers at the front and rear.

Moreover, the 2000 model of the vehicle also featured vacuum-assisted booster brakes for effective braking. The brand also boasted an improved steering system, new generation chassis, improved suspension setup, and electro chemically treated body shell for protection against rust.

Additional data includes:

KMT90, 4-speed Gearbox
T18, Spicer, 2-speed single lever Transfer case (4WD)
105.5″ Wheelbase
57" Wheel Track (Front)
53″ Wheel Track (Rear)
Stock Tyre size of 185/85 R16

What I like is it's a JEEP! and what I dislike is I only like JEEPS!

Difference between Marshal and Economy

What is the difference between Marshal and Economy?

Mahindra Economy and Marshal
by: Anonymous

As far as my limited knowledge, the difference between same year Mahindra Marshal and Mahindra Economy is only in Decals and Data plate. Decals not fixed in the above photograph. (I will upload one with decals). This was very few in production. I believe NGCS, MDI engine and 4WD combination is rare and I could source this vehicle from Kerala Forest Dept.auction. Must be same as non turbo version of Marshal DI DX Royale 4WD.

NGT520 gearbox is thMle gearbox used in Mahindra Economy its not KMT90 as in Mahindra Marshal. NGT520 was used only in smome commercial and Govt. enforcement vehicles in early 2000s. Later around 2005 it started widely using in many models of mahindra vehicles.
