Meanwhile the Internet cries in poor. One user jibed, “At the American price point, this car would sell like hotcakes in India. But our babus wanna keep pushing Tata and Mahindra down our throat with high duties.” Another user remarked, “In the US, it is a car. In India, it is a luxury, a tax seminar, and a lesson in patriotism; all for just about ₹23 lakh more.” A third user quipped, “This is a joke. There are so many better cars for so much cheaper.” A fourth wrote, “Price is too high, only elite and tax bachau business owners will buy it.” Yet another user dubbed the hefty price tag as “Magic of Sitharaman .”
