2022 Roxor Photo

[CJ2Rox]

Really all it will take Is a front grill simular to the original and problem solved. 18-20 will hold value and be sought after. Happy I found mine

 

[ROXOR]

Every few weeks I go on YouTube and look for new Roxor videos (upgrades, rides, maintenance,...). I just looked again today and found something really interesting.

There have been about a dozen short videos on YouTube posted in the last three or so weeks: lights being turned on in a factory. Sleeves being rolled up. Workboots walking down a factory floor.
They are all only about 10-15 sec clips, but end all in the same message: "Something's building".

This is really happening!

I have not noticed these... I need to post them.

Roxor has been releasing them for the last couple weeks one at a time. Check out all of their social media pages.

Let’s not start bashing the new design… Mahindra obviously didn’t want the change either. They did what they had to do.

From a manufacturing stand point I understand the design. They needed to retain the same tub and make a front end that matches the unique body lines. The curved hood cowl the bead rolled in the rockers and need to use simple dyes to press out the body panels to keep costs down.

If you don’t like it don’t buy it. I could care less about looks. It’s the function that I want. And under it all, it’s still the strong capable utility vehicle it was.

It’s not going to help to start bashing it. It’s never going to look like a Jeep again. That’s over. Let’s move on.

Bet it will be nasty with a set of 35's under it!

At first glance its "yuck" only because I truly like the cj style. But, looking closer at it... Once you add a front bumper with hoop, winch, 33-55 tires it should fill in the gap on the front. Plus it looks like you wont have to go flat fender or trim the front of the old style fenders to prevent tire rub. Overall I think it will still be a hit. just as long as they didnt muck anything else up. I approve.

While they are changing things, make a low gear set for the transfer case. Just saying.

I’m still glad I’ve got the old one, but I too can see these new ones being pretty cool. I can’t wait to see one with windshield, full ROPS installed, mud tires, winch, spacers, mirrors, etc.

Honestly, how many of our Roxors have gone completely unnoticed as Mahindra because of their design? Mine had the seven spot grill when I bought it. The diesel noise is the only thing clueing some folks in. They will certainly not go unnoticed now.

 

[Riverjet502]

All I can say, is butt ugly!!! After market will make lots of $$ on new front ends I'm guessing...

 

[DesertRox]

I have no issues with the new design and the parts are still available to make the CJ look. I think the new design might be better for ease of modding i.e. suspension, tires, no bent fenders.

 

[CJ2Rox]

Agree looking forward to seeing the aftermarket assesories that will be out soon to make it much sharper

 

[MaXXis85]

they all look bad stock... Add some good parts and it will look just fine.

It’s official the New Roxor 2.0 will be released on Veterans Day!

That would be great to see the new machines (and service parts).
I expect the number of new members on this forum to increase. Maybe some previous owners will decide to come back.
Everyone get ready to answer questions and do pass downs ?

Ready! Can I be an admin yet?

 

[Eyellgeteven]

I bet if you threw on a bumper and winch, and a bigger set of tires, they might look pretty good.

 

[mickeybobs]

Hey ...that slant back sheetmetal over the headlights has that 57 Ford look .......O no ...here we go again......

 

[txroadkill]

Roxor posted this photo on Facebook earlier today. Looks to confirm the front end is the same as the leaked photo.

No one is bashing Mahindra, they got screwed along with all consumers on this biased court decision. but you cannot expect people to pretend they like something they don't, most people I talked to think it is horrific looking and yes to most people looks do matter to some extent, very few people want to pay $20k for something that is so ugly it scares small children and dogs. Everyone has a right in this country to express an opinion, at least for the time being we do, lol. I respect your opinion but many of us also have differing opinions.

 

[Dean]

As will aftermarket front end conversion kits.

I assume On The Rox is already working on a hood to go with the grill and flat fender conversions.

I sure hope so, I imagine someone has to be looking into building kits to return the front end to that classic Willy's look, I honestly would not buy a new one without having that option, I would rather just buy an older one pre-2020 and fix it up if I did not have a kit option to return a new model to pre suit look. I do not blame Mahindra, not their fault, they got screwed as did all consumers in this BS court decision.

I think if people cannot share their opinions here about the Roxor than where can they share them????? It's perfectly ok to write about how you feel about the appearance and together everyone can wiegh the pros and cons. I personally feel just fine with the new appearance and I'm glad all the other rugged features are still there. But if others don't like it that's fine too.

Is true we are conditioned after 80yrs of the Jeep looks, but since 86 the jeep became a yuppee transporter. To bad Jeep inthusiasts have to buy all the padding and niceties that just inflates the price. I am for the bare bones utility of the military jeep. Use it as you need to and use a firehose if necessary to clean it up inside and out. Bottom line is we like the old looks, but the new one is the same unit with different lipstick.
