Mahindra has expanded its passenger vehicle portfolio in Nepal to include XUV700 mid-size SUV. Sales and service will be managed by Agni Group, which is the authorized Mahindra dealer in Nepal.

Scorpio-N is planned for launch in Nepal. Mahindra also offers commercial vehicles in Nepal such as Bolero Maxitruck Plus, Bolero pickup, Scorpio pickup and Bolero camper.

Car prices in Nepal are on the higher side due to massive import duties and taxes. Passenger cars are still considered a luxury in the country and taxed accordingly. The current applicable tax rate for imported passenger cars in Nepal is in the range of 250% to 350%. Maintenance is also challenging, as there’s 30% to 50% tax on parts like lubricants, components, batteries, tyres, etc. The automobile association in Nepal is against the high taxes, but nothing much has changed over the years.
