I'm not a fan of foreign vehicles, but this is impressive.

Quote :
The U.S. launch of Mahindra's midsize diesel pickup truck has been pushed back again, from December 2009 to February 2010.

"We will start production of Mahindra 'Pik-up' utility vehicle by December this year for the U.S., and by end-February next year, the vehicle will be sold there," Pawan Goenka, Mahindra's president of automotive operations, told reporters in India last week during the company's earnings reports.

An industry source with knowledge of Mahindra's U.S. plans told PickupTrucks.com that the Indian automaker wants to make sure everything is perfect before the pickup, likely to be called TR20 or TR40, depending on cab configuration, starts sales. The decision to delay until February caught Mahindra's U.S. distributor, Global Vehicles U.S.A., by surprise, but GV USA and the 300-plus dealers signed up to sell Mahindra trucks are on board with the decision, calling it "the right thing to do."

In July, Mahindra launched a similar version of the U.S. truck in Australia.

The Mahindra pickup will be offered in two cab configurations: a two-door regular cab and a four-door crew cab. The diesel-only truck will use a slightly modified version of Mahindra's "mHawk"' 2.2-liter inline-four-cylinder diesel engine. It's expected to have fuel economy ratings as high as 30 mpg and 1.3-ton hauling capability. Final U.S. pricing for the pickup is expected in September.

I kind of like it, a mix between a Tacoma and a VW Eurobus.
