It’s easy and convenient 4-step journey allows the customer to own a Mahindra vehicle in less time than it takes to get a pizza delivered! With our pre- and post-purchase online solutions already in place, reimagining the car purchase experience was a logical next step for us.

In fact, additional precautions are being taken across the customer interaction processes such as test drives, document collection and vehicle delivery to ensure high hygiene standards are maintained.
