The fit and finish of the Sumo grande looked great in the auto expo, lets hope they mantain that when it comes to its launch.
The interiors maybe bland but it still looks fresher than the Sumo and Safari. The Safari has been looking long in the tooth for a few years now.

I think this is going to be the usual affair from TATA and their finish and quality control is going to let them down. I hope they prove me wrong because the pricing mentioned for the Grande is very good and it will blow holes in both Scorpio and Safari sales. Might as well buy a Sumo Grande and a small car for local use. If the quality is good I am seriously considering buying a Grande in the next year or so.
