@Eskay – The Xylo looks good to me, while it could not appeal to you. I think as time goes by, people will get used to the Xylo’s looks and appreciate its uniqueness.

I doubt if Xylo launch in Australia is good idea. Will they like Xylo’s looks? Is Austrlian customer’s needs similar to Indian’s – I say no. So Xylo’s looks could play a larger role in Australia than it did here in our country.

“If the Pik-Up earns a good name, it will make things better for the Tata Nano and other Indian manufacturers eying the American market.” – a very very valid point. If Mahindra gives the American with a quality pick up truck, they are going down into the books as a concerned auto manufacturer and not the “Sell and run” type. This is helping Tata and even TVS bikes who plan to enter U.S.A.
