These have been talked about a bit on RME, thought it was time for a dedicated thread! I've been slow to get excited about these, but after seeing them in person, I actually like what they are. They're being marketed as a UTV, basically... but the design is based on a old Jeep and they have some very familiar features. Solid axles that are very close to Dana 44's, solid frame with leaf springs, etc. What's really cool is the diesel engine under the hood, Jeep guys have wanted a diesel for years and now that there will finally be a diesel Wrangler, but Mahindra beat Jeep to the punch!

I had a chance today to look over a few Roxors at my local ATV dealership (Perri's in GJ) and comparing them to older Jeep CJ's they look very similar. The fenders, hood, door shape, etc all look like a CJ7. It does look like there is even more room in the back than a CJ7/YJ, but it could be the lack of a rear seat throwing me off. The interior is very basic, but it fits for what is basically a utility vehicle. The dealership I was checking them out at had some aftermarket parts on them, bumpers, Warn winches, LED light bars, etc. I can only imagine what the aftermarket will provide for these.
You can 'build' one out on their website - https://www.roxoroffroad.com/build
I hear you can buy a 'street legal kit' for them, but it sounds like others are getting a VIN plate and title for a old CJ and 'making it work' on a Roxor.... that's quite questionable, though.
Here's some pics I took today, the local dealer is going to do a Demo Day this Spring and I'm hoping to get some seat time offroad behind the wheel then!
