DriveSpark's Thoughts On The Mahindra Roxor

The Mahindra Roxor is an off-road SUV built for the US market. The Roxor is based on the Thar but gets a complete overhaul to make it a hardcore off-road vehicle. And with a bunch of accessories and a ton of customising options, it will be an attractive package for an off-road enthusiast. The Roxor is unlikely to come to India as it is not a road-legal vehicle.
