The Mahindra Thar.e concept has caused a lot of chatter concerning the car's design similarities to the Ford Bronco. However, some say the front end, specifically, resembles a "carbon copy" of the Bronco. The result has been debates about whether off road vehicles ought to be original. Past legal fights between Mahindra and other automakers over design raise concerns that the new van could also court trouble. To others, however, there is only so much that can be done to a boxy off roader, and the Thar.e has enough unique elements to stand on its own. The conversation also covers if these similarities could actually work in Mahindra’s favor as they appeal to a global audience already familiar with the Bronco’s design language.
