As for the Bhagwant Mann's vehicles, it's interesting to know that the comedian-turned-politician owns Chevrolet Cruze sedan, that was discontinued long ago as the company exited the Indian market. Yet, he retained the premium sedan despite exponential depreciation.
On the other hand, a brand new Toyota Fortuner starts at Rs 31 lakh (ex-showroom) and goes upto Rs 45 lakh depending on the variant bought. Toyota Fortuner is a favourite among politicians across the country. Even PM Narendra Modi's convoy has multiple armoured Toyota Fortuners.
