Although it is being called the Mahindra Alturas G4 it essentially is the 4 generation Rexton from the Korean automobile manufacturer, Ssangyon.

Design:

One look at the face of the Alturas G4 and you instantly realize that it is a Mahindra. The massive chrome grill adds a bold, 'in your face' style element to the vehicle which is characteristic of most of the Mahindra vehicles. The SUV has an upright stance for an impressive road presence. The strong and dynamic body lines along with the chrome surround molding around the windows not only enhance the side profile of the SUV but also adds an elegant look. The twin-chamber HID headlamps of the Alturas G4 are claimed to provide great visibility like floodlights for improved visibility at night. The LED DRLs of the headlamps also function as amber colour turn indicators. The fog lamps also house cornering lamps. The wheels on the Alturas G4 are 18-inch diamond cut alloy wheels.
