The design is unique, with an integrated exhaust and massive dashboard with LCD screen which also features images from a rear-facing camera that substitute for rear view mirrors. The full metal body and carbon fibre fuel tank lend the Vanguard Roadster a unique look, as does the frameless structural engine and a unitized crankcase. The production model will be available from 2018, and Vanguard says it will be priced at US$ 29,995 (around Rs 20 lakh).
