The Renault Lodgy is more a more appropriate comparison and it starts around 9 lakh ($13500/12000€)in India. Which is still substantially more than our $8k target price.
Right, but I can imagine Renault doing a van on the same basis. From 4000$(3500€) to 8000$ is a huge gap for changing only the auto body.
It is also funny to see that Dacia Lodgy is more expensive in India than here in France with more regulation where it cost 9900€ (http://www.dacia.fr/gamme-dacia/lodgy/), closer to your target price.
