Only Indian Car manufacturers can produce the best "Made in India" Engine. Like Mahindra Xylo. The highest selling Utility Vehicle in 2009. I was not too impressed bu Xylo in the beginning but I was proved totally wrong.
Xylo mein dum hai boss.
So basically Brands like Mahindra and maruti know the Indian market and Indian conditions and therefore can market the product well. Personally, in car websites I think the xylo website http://www.mahindraxylo.co.in is very entertaining. Yes, thats right! it si entertaining. Lots of videos and music and lots of colours in the website.
