Suggestion

• The target customers for this vehicle will be those who are buying it for business purpose, because the vehicle is made for off-roading thus, builder’s, construction companies should be targeted.
• We should target customers aged above 35, because as already they are having one or more than one vehicle for the purpose of family, and are looking for something different (like an off-roading vehicle).
• Customers turning up for test drives were found insignificant from those who were looking for family purpose. Therefore, we must not mix S.U.V segment with E.O.V. for confusing our customers.
![Page 27: Force motors Report presentation](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102422/5873bb101a28abbc788b554b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

• Many of the customers I met were reluctant to buy our product but they were only backed by the BS IV issue, I suggest in rolling out the CRDI version. Any space left for the competitor is actually losing our own market share.
• Among customers visited, the younger ones came to know about the product through online social media sites, so we need to create an official Gurkha Facebook account.
• Matt black color is the customer’s most favorite choice, so inventory of Force Gurkha with Matt black color should be highest, followed by copper red.

Sampling error • Sample size is 30 which merely constitute a portion among the overall
population size of Pune.• The survey was conducted on customers who inquired about the product in
previous year.• The structured questionnaire was insufficient in gathering deeper
information.• The perceptual mapping was done before the test drive was conducted. Thus,
post test drive result might vary.
