What is wrong with Mahindra? None of their partnership/JV/acqisition seems to work. Kinetic, Maini, Renault, Ssangyong, Pininfarina, Ford... list goes on and on.

Ford pulls plug on plans to cede India operations to Mahindra

Ford Motor Co. is reversing plans to cede most of its Indian operations to Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd., deciding to pull out of a proposed joint venture and continue its standalone business in the country.

The two companies agreed to terminate the venture after reassessing in part due to the global coronavirus pandemic, they said Thursday.

Some early insights suggest that W605 will live on as a special child whose parents got divorced even before his birth.
Its too late to call of W605 as its now in too advanced stage of development and will be a huge loss for many if they axe the project.
