Being a hardcore armoured vehicle, the Armado comes with a ton of unique capabilities. This includes things like extra load-bearing capacity, which is well-suited for counter-terrorist operations. It is also useful during patrolling in tense areas and operations by special forces and quick reaction teams. It can also be used on desert terrain and for border security which is necessary along the volatile borders surrounding our vast country. These details have been shared on the company’s website.

What We Think
With the advancements in technology and investment in R&D, Indian carmakers are able to offer world-class products whether it comes to passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles or defence vehicles. Interestingly, Mahindra is placed uniquely at the centre of all these industries making it a force to be reckoned with. It will be interesting to see what products are launched and manufactured by Mahindra in the following years. Also, this will boost our defence forces and offer them access to the latest technology giving us an edge against any threats.
