I got this email from Mahindra truck rep today.I hope it works out.



Good Morning Mahindra Truck Fans,
Congratulations. You are part of over 30,000 signed up to be the first to experience the hardworking Mahindra trucks.

I know you are wondering when you will have the opportunity to get behind the wheel of one of these amazing, authentic, robust, fuel-efficient trucks at a Mahindra dealer near you. While I cannot give you a firm answer on timing, I can tell you in my estimation, trucks will arrive in the spring of 2011.

Mahindra has applied for and received their EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) certificate, which means the vehicles have passed emission requirements. They also filed with (NHTSA) National Highway Safety Administration, which handles US standards for safety.

With these hurdles completed, it would seem production is imminent, but other factors may hinder the US launch. India’s car sales are on a dramatic trajectory upward. The sales pace combined with an industry wide parts shortage is impacting home market sales, which will have an affect on the United States introduction.

In closing, I know each of you anxiously await the arrival of the Mahindra trucks, and I am confident that you will see a launch announcement in the next few months.

Mahindra Clean Diesel Pickup Trucks and SUVs

 

I received it to! They said spring of 2011 but they left a vaige opening that there might be more delays! Well CRAP! I was hoping it would force a FORD Ranger, Chevy S-10, Dodge Dakota (ugly truck IMO) Diesel to come to market!

 

weird never heard of them. what are they

 

the truck itself looks stupid IMOP. but i bet if one were to swap that engine to an older model truck they would have an awesome mudd truck. granted that the engine isnt very heavy.

 

ok wow just looked at them. could they get any uglier? and clean diesel? come on. i dont like to smoke out everyone behind me(unless they **** me off) but i like a puff or a stream of smoke once in a while or else i'd just drive a gasser which i garuntee will not happen

 

I agree the new ones are but ugly as are the new Durangos.


Mahindra is a popular tractor manufacture from India.They now produce a small truck.Not quite as small as a Ranger but quite as big as a Colorado.


I'm really not an import guy,but I do like Mahindra tractors,so I thought I'd give their tucks a try.They're not the prettiest,but I can over look that if they're as reliable and long lasting as their tractor counter part.The engines are supposed to be road versions of their tractor engines.

 

sorry but there's no such thing as a "dirty" diesel anymore in light duty pickups, thank the EPA for that

but theres always DPF deletes
