Logan ki lag gayi

I saw a Mahindra Logan on the road for the first time today. My instant reaction: "What an ugly car."

It looks like it was designed in a hurry. Something left incomplete. And it did not look any 'wider' than any of the existing cars. Shayad andar se ho but you know what they say about 'inner beauty'. It's not enough.

Just goes to show that anything can be made to look good in a commercial. Gaadi ho ya kudi ho. Photoshop zindabad!

  1. Logan was not designed to be visually appealing. It was designed to be a back to the basics cheap transportation for Eastern European countries. No wonder its so ugly.

  2. True, it is not so impressive from outside. But may be spacious inside. They wanted to bring down the price (to compete with Esteem / any other mid seg car) of it so that compromise I guess.

  3. I disagree; cant say ugly; though its a no frills car so there's only so much you could expect..

  6. I pass by the Renault/Mahindra showroom daily, and I can't help thinking how much the design will put off prospective buyers. It is, if I am not mistaken, positioned to compete with the Indigo. And is being beaten.

    Which goes to show two things:

    1) Marketing will get you only so much

    2) Indian designs are now getting to the point where they can seriously worry foreign competition, and not just by cheaper manufacturing costs. One look at the Mahindra Scorpio and the Bajaj Pulsar confirms it - we can beat them at their game.

    Maybe Mahindra let Renault do the design. Maybe Renault presumed that they being the big shots and makers of Formula One cars, they had a right to select a design.

    Either ways, both will suffer unless something drastic is done. This is slated to go the way of the Peugot 309... remember it?

  7. The backside looks pretty ugly!!! But you need to drive and see the car, even the diesel version does not vibrate inside. I did take a test drive of both Logan as well as SX4. the only difference being that SX4 is completely loaded with features.

  8. Don't they themselves claim to be spacious from inside, and not from outside? Logan beautifully does what it purports to.

  9. The VEry first Reaction to my friends Logan by seeing from back.. "has some1 Ditched from behind!!" The Design sucks.....

    I dont think Logan creates waves like scorpio.

  12. Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder!!! I found the backside pretty cool…definitely much better than the Indigo or Verna which have a constipated look. And for ur info, it is not a hastily designed car. It’s not even a car designed for India. It has been there in the (mostly Eastern) European market for quite some time.

  13. Yes, it sucks in design and comes across as the most unappealing design among sedans. However, the fact remains it is the most spacious sedan on indian roads, among other things like a low cost, great diesel engine and so on.

    Excerpts from a website: " With a record wheelbase of 2630mm against indigo (2450mm), Verna (2500mm), Fiesta (2486mm) it is more spacious and it can be compared with what tata calls indigo limousine(Indigo XL pricing almost 7 lakh).The Logan’s interior space was designed for countries where it is common for whole families to pile into one car! So there are 5 proper seats and a very large boot with a capacity of 510 litres, offering best-in-class value. Three very tall passengers (over 1900 m) can sit comfortably in the back. The width of the seats (1,420 mm), foot room (420 mm) is generous, and there is 185 mm of knee room."

    Rashmi, i can dare to day that you have reached a position in Blogosphere where your views/comments are looked up to, respected, and valued. Please don't write silly posts like these to wade of the junta from your blog and squander your position. We love you when your write posts like Young Entrepreneur Series, Strange bedfellows, Comfort, commerce, cut-offs and so on.

  14. Logan ki NAHI lagi...
    Logan ki lag gayi hoti if the instant reaction "What an ugly car" came from Keshub Mahindra :P

    I dont think Renault's marketing will have an impact of the breadth of a hair if it were commented by even the best blogger in the world...
    Lagna to door ki baat hai !!!

  15. deadly tagline 4 the vry undsrving car....b'tr renaylt shd patch up wth mahindra...tractors!wht say frnz??

  16. I thought the car isn't too ugly, but it would be interesting to see which of it's features make it sell. It's quite cheap looking, is underpowered and is supported by Mahindra (which isn't anything to brag about). Will the Indian consumer pick it up just for space? Waiting to see!

    ReplyDelete
  17. Completely agree with you. And also with jos, many existing cars look pretty unappealing. But the fact that you see these in large numbers on the roads proves that for Indian car buyers, looks do not really matter. Neither do performance, but that's a different story...

  18. U guys might find it ugly but the low price makes it a preety decent car...what i`ve found out from d sales statistics on the web its the most selling car in the last month or two...its said that its made more sales than the Honda City...so when a car is selling than good cant be that bad...At least thats what i feel...

  19. i think u guys should read these reviews...http://www.mouthshut.com/product-reviews/Mahindra_Renault_Logan-925071574.html

  20. I have recently purchased "RenaultMahindra Diesel 1.5 DLS model. I agree with Mr JOS that beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. It is a wonderful and very good looking car and well designed. Inspite of being a diesel car one hardly feel the engine running. It is completely provided with all amenities and the "Blupunct CD Player" is of very good quality. Fuel consumption on highways is around 22-23 KM. Only one thing should need attention is the road margin which for Indian roads should be incresed.

  21. As someone who has a Porsche Cayenne where I live (not in India) I bought a Logan for my parents(who do live in India) and have driven it extensively. It's a fab car and great value, and you know what, it fits in 5 adults and luggage comfy...(no, not just the 5 feet sorts)...
