W
ith the XYLO, Indian Auto Giant Mahindra
intends to put an end to the era of
Sedans. To carry out this ambitious
operation, Mahindra has designed and
developed an MPV, which is as Indian as hot Curry.
Mahindra has a renowned history for manufacturing
big-sized vehicles. Take either the stylish Scorpio,
the rugged Bolero or the latest XYLO, it has stuck
to it’s reputation of offering buyers with Utilitarian
vehicles which are big on size and easy on the wallet.
Sedan Death!

I was invited by the company along with India’s top
Auto journalists to a special preview of the XYLO at
Mahindra’s production facility at Nasik. The build-up
to the launch was something along the lines of a star-
studded Hollywood movie preview. Mahindra had given
little or nothing away through their teaser website
(mahindraxylo.co.in) and this was the first time an
outsider was given an opportunity to see and feel the car.
