Utility vehicles is one segment where Mahindra has been a big player and consistently, with its product upgradation, it’s brought in a number of SUVs that have made a mark and have a cult following in the country. The company’s new-gen SUVs have been very successful for the company right from the Scorpio to the XUV500 and even the Thar and not the XUV300, which is the safest SUV in the country. But we have to say that it was the diesel engine that was the popular of the lot. Now however, there is a significant change as global crude oil prices start to sky rocket and petrol and diesel rates in the country reach a new high.
