It was always going to happen.
Production costs (any industry) in this country are far beyond what the cost to market will bear.

Needless bumpf satisfying pen pushers is driving up costs beyond belief. The paying customer is no longer bearing the cost, and sales are suffering.

As stated, much of the Airvan is produced in the US already. It makes sense to assemble and market it from there.

Mahindra have merely maintained the Latrobe facility to meet contractual obligations in the sale.

Times up!

Oh sorry...i forgot everyone should be earning 100k per year for 4 hours per day actual production
