Bought a Mahindra Thar last month and loving it! No wonder their SUV sales are up. The build quality has improved significantly compared to older models.

While the numbers look good, I wish Mahindra would focus more on electric vehicles. They're lagging behind Tata in this segment. The XUV400 needs more upgrades to compete.

22% growth in passenger vehicles is no joke! Waiting for the new XUV700 hybrid version to launch. Any idea when that's coming?

My father has been using Mahindra tractors for 20 years. Their after-sales service in rural areas is what keeps customers loyal. Happy to see them growing!
