When I told him that i was holding my comments back on this thread, he laughed and asked me to post saying it was the fair thing to do. Do you still think this is a Sales Pitch my enthusiastic friend!! Let me add though, that I dont intent to be offensive in any way whatsoever, and I really wanted to add a joke about the Tata Safari somewhere, but I dont mean it. Just a feeble attempt at humor. Cy.

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() @viji: Fantastic catch mate. Thanks for the price list. Price looks very reasonable. I think given that the difference between the DI and CRDe is just about a lakh, It makes sense to spring for the Thar CRDe unless you want to use it purely/mostly off-road. From looking at the price list. Looks like there are three variants of the Thar CRDe. MM545JTR7JC MM545JTR7RT MM545JTR7XF Wonder what the difference is? Can M&M folks elaborate??

![]() | ![]() @Jay, it was all in a context of fun, it wasnt a dig at you or your leaves! ![]() But, I still think this pricelist is wonky. That said, I do not know the price of the car! just clarifying. 4X4addict, should be a Di 4X2, Di 4x4 and the CRDe |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() @cyrus: If you look at the price list posted, there is three variants of the CRDe and two variants of DI. I am wondering what the three vairants of CRDe are? |

Wow, this is a great scoop! Quote:
The road tax in Karnataka is 14% + 10% cess on road tax = 15.4% Average annual insurance = 3% On road price is ExShowroom price + (15.4 + 3)% tax, which comes 6,07,198 X 1.184 = Rs.7,18,922/- It will be 6.5L or less in many other states. We can't blame Mahindra for the pathetic road tax of Karnataka. | |

Ahh, I just read that Price list picture. It wasnt loading earlier BTW, must be something wrong with the connection or something. Bombay should be below 7 which is exactly how much the gypsy used to cost. | |||

| ![]() No point in breaking our head over our own speculations. I would have definitely liked two different names for the products. But then anyone could buy the Thar decal and stick it to a DI. We have Alto, i20 etc. with different engine options present in the market. At least the Alto variants are differentiated visually. I hope the THAR CRDe would be differentiated in some way. However, I really do not mind the same name as long as I know what THAR CRDe is. So that is not a deterrent per se. Each one who buys the Thar CRDe can name it after their own hearts. In a way, if the Thar names helps to bring in higher sales volume for the DI variant, M&M can leverage that to price the CRDe version lower, benefitting the enthusiasts. Pricing. I hope what is posted is an indication or the acutal price. Pricing it like the Jazz (read not VFM) would make it difficult for many to convince themselves to buy it. I am waiting to see what I will get with the Thar CRDe. Will there be A/C, PS (I think this is confirmed), roll cage, an optional Hard Top, optional front facing rear seats etc.? How much would they cost, especially a good looking hard top? I have no experience in off-roading. So the performance in that area, I will leave it to the experts to evaluate once the product hits the market. I hope Christmas or the new year brings us the good news. -Biju Last edited by pjbiju : 5th December 2010 at 16:24. |

| ![]() Great catch, Swastik. Not so much for the prices, but to say its not vapourware, and viral marketing. Quote:

| ![]() After using the services of the board extensively, I think it was MM's prerogative to announce the prices & specs. before the members gather from other sources. If not this there should be something as a priority delivery or something special arranged for the members of the board. This could be the best thanks-giving, if any! |
