Interesting design by Mahindra, Just not a fan of the small wheels.

The blinged up Tata Prima truck from Badshah's DJ Waley Babu music video is all kinds of awesome | Motoroids

Frankly I think it looks ridiculous and the standard vehicle is way better looking:

I was never a fan of TATAs. To me these look like aluminium match boxes.

I've seen this on many Indian cars. They imho mismatch the regular/kei design somewhat....to give more passenger volume but still create the artificially better turn radius/steering response etc. because we all know how Indian cities are still .

Doesn't look that great aesthetically...and can have issues with roll stability....though Mahindra seems to have designed well to deal with the latter at least from what I can see.

Pretty standard european style flat nose design.

You prefer having a distinct hood (long nose) on the truck?

Well, European trucks have length restrictions so it makes sense to chop off the nose of cab.
Add to it the fact that nosed cabs will require more space for parking, turning and driving too.
I didn't like TATA's design because it looks unstable, specially the sleeper. TATAs are known for their higher frequency of repairs, but are cheaper. So I guess that's one reason why people still buy it.

Pretty sure its just a concept for a music video.

I dont think we will see anything like this on the road in reality.

I've heard that TATA is getting better as far as reputation goes nowadays.

Cool. But I am glad I don't drive one.

Its what I have heard...not experienced ....I'm not about to go driving a semi trailer of any make anytime soon either. Closest I have driven to that level are pick up trucks.

The ride quality is good on those...even the older ones have overdesigned suspension.

Mahindra Imperio pick up launched

One half looks like it's for(targeting) farm hand use, other side looks urban. Confusing.
