How would you like the Mahindra Marazzo facelift inspired by the popular and flamboyant XUV700? Check out the results in this exquisite digital rendition.
The digital automobile designer, SRK Designs, captures the step-by-step process of transforming a Mahindra Marazzo into its facelift avatar using the attributes of XUV700. Now, the Marazzo is an MPV that gained little traction in our market but was largely overshadowed by the mega-popular Maruti Ertiga. That is why the facelifted version has to be out of the box to compel the buyers to opt for it instead of the Ertiga. THe XIV700, on the other hand, is the most popular Mahindra in the market right now. Hence, it makes sense to borrow a few elements from the mid-size SUV to make the Marazzo as attractive as possible.
