The Mahindra BE.05 certainly looks bold, futuristic and very different from the India SUVs we are used to seeing. It's certainly eye catching with its coupe like roof line, sharp angles and unique front fascia. However, India has earned itself a reputation for being conservative when it comes to car buying in general and especially as regards family vehicles. The BE.05's design might not be for everyone: some will love its avant garde looks, others will see it as too radical. Plus, there’s the practicality question: Does this sleek design come at the expense of interior space or visibility? In a market where resale value is everything, will such a unique design hold up in years to come, or will it quickly go out of style? This is an interesting debate about whether Indian consumers are ready to accept such a futuristic design in their daily drivers.
