Toooo costly….
[...] was launched in India at the Auto Expo three months [...]
Not everybody wants to own a hulking SUV or saloon car with a boot that rarely gets used. Thought of that?
Very very expensive. It may be iconic but this is not a justifiable price. They must be looking to sell a few hundreds all over India in a year.
If it was around 12 to 20 Lakhs then they could have found many more people who look for a second car with brand image which is mostly small for office commutes.
better going for sedans or suv rather than luxury hatchs
