Don’t mistake it for a hatchback. Mahindra’s new Verito Vibe is a two-box saloon, and it comes with all the traits of the Verito.
M&M’s efforts to keep costs in check seem to have paid off. The Vibe has been launched at a starting price of Rs 5.63 lakh (ex-showroom, Mumbai) for the base D2 trim. The Vibe’s mish-mash styling does look a bit quirky but that’s something that can grow on you. The bigger question is can the Vibe shed the Verito’s taxi stigma, inherited from the Logan, to position itself as a sensible choice for anyone in the market for a spacious and comfortable compact car. That’s the biggest challenge for M&M too.
