Is it possible that the Tour H1 might represent a smart choice for budgetconscious private buyers as well as taxi operators?

Since I’m a minimalist, I actually like the idea of the Tour H1 for personal use. It’s all the unnecessary stuff stripped away and you have the essence of what a car should be. Also, fewer features means fewer things to break down the line.

You all are forgetting the safety aspect. Some safety features you’d expect to find on other models might be missing on the Tour H1. Is it really worth saving a few bucks by compromising your family’s safety?

I think the Tour H1 might have its niche in the DIY crowd. Buy it cheap and slowly upgrade it with aftermarket parts as you like. With that said, you could actually end up with a pretty unique, personalized ride for less than a higher end model would cost.
Is the Marazzo's body on frame with front wheel drive a smart compromise, or a weird halfway house?

I think it's pretty clever. The durability you get for rough roads is without giving up too much on comfort and handling. Ideal for Indian conditions where you need a bit of everything.

It feels like they didn't know what they wanted it to be. Or full unibody for better dynamics, or go full body on frame and make it tougher. The worst of both might land up on this middle ground.

As an engineer, it's fascinating. It’s not conventional, but it addresses a particular need for the target market. I’d be interested to see how it fairs long term vs traditional designs.

That's a smart move for Mahindra. It's a chance to get some of their SUV tech back, while still making a family hauler that's comfortable. This saves on development costs and it provides them with a unique selling point.

I'm skeptical. Okay, maybe it will work okay, but will it be a nightmare to maintain down the road? When designs are unusual, so are the (and expensive) problems later on.
Is Marazzo's diesel-only engine lineup a smart move, or a limitation in today's market?

Diesel still works for an MPV. With better torque for hauling people and luggage, and better fuel efficiency, it’s a big plus for budget conscious families. Mahindra knows their market.

It's short-sighted. In cities, diesel's days are numbered. At the least, future proofing the model should at least offer a petrol option. When diesel is banned or heavily taxed what happens?

I like it. High mileage is better for diesel engines, because they last longer. It is perfect for long term MPV owners who tend to make long trips.

They're limiting their market. Other people quite simply prefer petrol engines or are worried about the cost of diesel maintenance. Why couldn’t we just give people both and let them decide what they wanted?

It's a gamble. But if diesel stays viable in India for another decade, they’ll look smart. If they don't, they'll have to go back and update the entire platform. A risky way that may end up paying off.
