Is the Mahindra Jeeto really a ‘mini truck for winners’ or just overhyped marketing?
27 December 2024 09:25
Winners? If you ask me, it's more of a "mini truck for constant repairs." Honestly, I’ve spent more time in the service center than I have actually using it for my business. For heavy loads, the single cylinder engine just won't do. Don't save your money on something that will not stand the test of time.

People think too much of a mini budget truck. The Jeeto is decent value for what it costs. It’s not going to be winning any races or hauling massive loads, but for city deliveries and small businesses, it’ll do the trick. Folks, you gotta manage your expectations.

Mahindra’s after sales service is the real issue here. The truck itself isn’t bad, but if something goes wrong, good luck getting it fixed quickly. Half the complaints would disappear overnight if they could improve their service network and spare parts availability.
Does the Mahindra Jeeto’s CNG variant make sense for urban delivery businesses?
27 December 2024 09:25
Last year, I switched to the Jeeto CNG for my small delivery business and it has been a game changer. No joke, I’m spending much less on CNG than I ever did on diesel. Also, I feel good about polluting less.
Does the Mahindra Jeeto’s CNG variant make sense for urban delivery businesses?
27 December 2024 09:25
On paper, CNG sounds great, but it’s not all it’s cracked up to be. Long routes have been nightmares finding CNG stations. And sometimes I spend more time and money trying to refuel than I save in fuel costs. Unless you're only doing short city runs, it's just not practical.
Does the Mahindra Jeeto’s CNG variant make sense for urban delivery businesses?

This is a real power issue, folks. My Jeeto CNG struggles when fully loaded on inclines. It works fine for flat city roads, but if your routes include any hills or highways you should consider diesel.
Does the Mahindra Jeeto’s CNG variant make sense for urban delivery businesses?
27 December 2024 09:25
It really depends I think on your use case. It's perfect for my vegetable delivery business within the city. It has low running costs, enough power for my needs and I never have problems finding CNG stations. I can imagine it not working for everyone, but I can see how it might.

It’s a big hurdle in terms of cost. There’s no doubt saving in the long run, but it’s a big upfront investment and small businesses have a hard time swallowing it. If they really want to push CNG variant, Mahindra should offer better financing options.
Is 700-815 kg of payload capacity enough for most small businesses?
27 December 2024 09:25
The Jeeto's payload is spot on for my courier service. I only have to carry less than 700 kg and the compact size makes it a breeze to manoeuvre in tight city streets. It’s just a matter of getting the right balance for your specific needs.
Is 700-815 kg of payload capacity enough for most small businesses?
27 December 2024 09:25
I find the payload limiting. It’s fine most days, but there are times when I need to carry more and I end up making two trips instead of one. That extra 100 – 200 kg capacity would make the world of difference.
Is 700-815 kg of payload capacity enough for most small businesses?
27 December 2024 09:25
Let’s be real, you shouldn’t be looking at a mini truck if you need to carry more than 800 kg on a regular basis. This is the sweet spot for small businesses. It's not some heavy duty hauler.
Is 700-815 kg of payload capacity enough for most small businesses?
27 December 2024 09:25
I guess the payload is not really a problem but the problem is how the truck behaves when it's loaded. At max capacity mine feels a bit unstable and underpowered. I'd much rather have a slightly lower payload and better performance.

Being one who swapped from a larger truck to the Jeeto, I actually like the payload limit. This makes me more efficient with my loads and has ultimately helped me squeeze the best out of my business operations. There are times when limitations are a good thing.
The Mahindra Jeeto’s comfort and ergonomics for drivers doing long hours?
27 December 2024 09:25
I work 10-12 hour shifts in my Jeeto and, to be honest, it’s not bad. The controls are easy to reach and the seat's decent. It’s no luxury car, but for a mini truck it’s surprisingly comfortable. So that’s a win in my book, my back doesn’t kill me at the end of the day.
The Mahindra Jeeto’s comfort and ergonomics for drivers doing long hours?
27 December 2024 09:25
Comfortable? Is this the same vehicle we're talking about? After a few hours, the seat is hard as a wooden bench, the suspension is harsh and the noise levels are howling. For short trips, it’s bearable, but for long hours? No way.
The Mahindra Jeeto’s comfort and ergonomics for drivers doing long hours?
27 December 2024 09:25
I believe people forget this is a budget mini truck, not a high end commercial vehicle. The comfort level for what it is, is fine. I’ve added a cushion to the seat and a steering cover and it’s a world of difference. A little customization goes a long way.
The Mahindra Jeeto’s comfort and ergonomics for drivers doing long hours?
27 December 2024 09:25
My biggest issue is adjustability. I am a tall guy and I can never find a comfortable driving position. Seat and steering adjustment options need to be much more available from Mahindra.
The Mahindra Jeeto’s comfort and ergonomics for drivers doing long hours?
27 December 2024 09:25
For me, the Jeeto feels like a luxury ride, coming from driving a tempo. It's all about perspective. Is it perfect? No. For its price point and purpose, I think Mahindra has done a good job on driver comfort.
Has the Mahindra Jeeto been a game changer for last mile delivery as promised?
27 December 2024 09:25
I’ve been in the last mile delivery game for years and I’d say the Jeeto has made a difference. It’s a nice size for tight alleys and crowded markets. It’s not without problems, but it’s led us to rethink how we approach urban delivery.
Has the Mahindra Jeeto been a game changer for last mile delivery as promised?
27 December 2024 09:25
Game-changer? More like game-same-er. Yes, it’s small, which is a good thing, but so are its rivals. Reliability is the real problem. If the delivery vehicle is always at the shop, what good is it? Mahindra promised more than they delivered.
