What We Think
Mahindra has come a long way from making industrial and agricultural equipment and is impressing the buyers and critics alike in many international markets including South Africa and Australia. People are comparing the Mahindra SUVs with the big guns like Ford and Toyota that have been around for ages making some of the most prominent and capable off-roading SUVs in the world since time immemorial. What is impressive is the fact that Mahindra is offering all that at a considerably inexpensive price compared to those products. Hence, the signs are there that Mahindra is on track to becoming mega-successful in international circuits in addition to its domestic market, India.
