Roxor was classified as an off-highway, side-by-side (SxS) vehicle in the US, offering 2 seats, side by side. The vehicle is meant for operation in farms and off-road tracks and not permitted to be operated on public roads or highways.
The Roxor is received as a CKD and assembled at the US plant.
After launch, FCA (now Stellantis) filed a trademark infringement case citing that the Roxor had a “Trade dress” similar to the original Willys CJ-series and that Mahindra had a licence to sell only in India.
The US International Trade Commission ruled in favour of the FCA with a “cease and desist” order leading to stoppage sale. The production of Roxor was stopped.
MANA embarked on a redesign of the Roxor to meet the “Trade dress” requirements.
