Some official pictures.

Notably, it’ll be available in Rubicon spec. So the roof can come off!

Wheelbase will be more than a JL. Overall length is 500mm more. 33 inched tyres are stock.

It’ll have a 750 kg load capacity & can tow 3500 kg.

It looks bizarrely long. Hints of Mahindra Bolero. :lol:
The above may contain varying amounts of A+ advice, mocking sarcasm, harmless needling or worthless drivel. Good luck!

Will it fit in a garage? That length looks like it may have to park outside...

Oppies, you and MalMan are just jealous :lol:

Like all manufacturers of off-road vehicles, Mahindra has tried to copy the original Jeep look in the design of their vehicles, not the other way around. They do this to create the perception that their vehicles are as capable as a Wrangler. :roll:

Not only that, they do not know what the Mahindra looks like :P

I suppose if you are drunk, squint and drugged, you might see some sort of similarity... Like a drunk dude eyeing a fugly woman in a bar
