Every feature of the new 3-in-1 Multix fulfils a specific purpose. From comfort to safety, styling to economy, space to electricity, it multiplies utility like no other vehicle. It can accommodate a family of five comfortably.
With its X-Port feature, Multix can also generate 3 kilowatts of electricity, so that you can power your home, water pumps, music systems, winnowing fans, chaff cutters and other essential machinery. It’s not just a vehicle, it’s a powerhouse.
Multix’s body is highly durable and damage-resistant. Its tubular frame is built to withstand most hits, bumps and bangs. Multix’s robust inner frame keeps passengers well protected. With its precise handling, Multix tackles the roughest terrain with ease, making safety a standard fit.
The four-stroke, direct-injection BS III diesel engine delivers a mileage of 28.45 kmpl. The body is made of Flexituff, a highly durable material, resistant to rust and easy to repair at affordable rates.
