Mahindra has a reputation for building workhorses with sturdier frames, more heavy-duty components and higher lift capacities than other brands. This provides greater stability and control, as well as the ability to handle larger implements so customers can get their work done faster.

With demand on the rise and its expansion into new states, Mahindra is attracting new dealers to its current network of over 150 dealers. As a result, Mahindra USA just completed a multi-million dollar expansion of its Texas based headquarters to further ensure exceptional dealer and customer support, including technical assistance, service support and delivery of parts in 24 hours. Mahindra is also adding a new distribution center in Calhoun, GA, which is near Atlanta, by year-end.
