I'm not a Mahindra minion but in that rendering the ones on the rear appear to be installed backwards.

Like the Belarus brand (which everyone around here insisted on pronouncing as "Polaris" :banghead: ) Russian farm tractors that were imported for a while, finding parts, even something that should be as easy to replace as a battery, might prove a real challenge.

Hardly Russian.
Belarus actually means that, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belarus , like the country it comes from.

It’s not a spanking new 2019 Jeep, it’s more like a spanking new 1948 Jeep.

Fair enough. Since people around here couldn't pronounce the name right, I shouldn't have expected them to get the location of manufacture right, either, but in fairness the dealers who sold them called them "Russian" tractors.

Saddest part is we almost had a small turbo-diesel (already EPA approved) pickup truck from Mahindra before the legal fight with their prospective U.S. distributor ended it.

Yes, very sad. A buddy of mine was really stoked at the possibility of getting one.
