Mahindra started with the assembly under licence of the Willys Jeep in India in 1949 and later made purpose-built military vehicles since the 1950s. By the 1970s, Mahindra started selling the SUV to civilians and soon it became a lifestyle icon. Later on, we saw the entry of models like the MM440, Classic 4x4, Major, and now the Thar, which is all set to receive a generation upgrade in October 2020.
