# 🚐 Protint – Premium Detailing & Protection for Mahindra Marazzo
## 🐋 A Special Note for Mahindra Marazzo Owners
The **Mahindra Marazzo** is a unique people-mover that brought shark-inspired design and exceptional ride comfort to the Indian MPV segment. Launched in 2018, the Marazzo was developed with technical input from Mahindra's North American technical center (MANA) and Pininfarina, resulting in a vehicle that stands out from the crowd. With its muscular yet flowing lines, spacious 7/8-seater cabin, class-leading boot space, and a refined 1.5L diesel engine (offering up to 17-19 kmpl on highways), the Marazzo is built for large families, travel enthusiasts, and practical owners.
The 2023-2024 Marazzo continues to impress with a 5-star Global NCAP safety rating (making it one of the safest MPVs in India) and a price range of ₹12.55 lakh to ₹15.19 lakh (ex-showroom). Available in three main variants—**M2, M4, and M8**—with 7-seater (captain seats) and 8-seater (bench seat) configurations, the Marazzo offers genuine flexibility for Indian families.
At **Protint**, we understand that Marazzo owners value:
- **Family safety** – ensuring all passengers stay cool and protected
- **MPV practicality** – protecting a vehicle that's used for school runs, road trips, and everything in between
- **Resale value retention** – a well-protected Marazzo stands out in the used MPV market
- **Long-term reliability** – preserving Mahindra's 'Built Tough' engineering
> **⚠️ Important Note on Indian Legal Compliance**: India has strict window tinting regulations. As per the **Supreme Court ruling of 2012** and the **Central Motor Vehicles Rules, 1989**, aftermarket sun films are **strictly prohibited** regardless of VLT claims. Only factory-fitted tinted glass is permitted. **Front windshields must allow at least 70% light transmission** and **side windows at least 50%**. **Penalties** for non-compliance include fines and on-the-spot film removal. We strictly follow the law by recommending **removable mesh sunshades** (legal only while parked) and **factory-fitted tinted glass** (OEM option).
## ⚖️ Legal Sun Protection & Heat Rejection
The Marazzo's spacious 3-row cabin and large glass area make effective sun protection essential—especially for second and third-row passengers. Instead of illegal tinted films, we use only legally compliant methods.

## 🛡️ Paint Protection Film (PPF) – Invisible Armor for the Marazzo
