The SUV in question here, the Isuzu V-Cross is heavily modified. It gets a 12-inch lit kit with over sized aftermarket tyres. The front and the rear bumper was modified and there is a long list of other modifications too. All these modification made V-Cross quite tall and gave it a monster truck like vibe. After issuing the challan, the Kerala MVD had also suspended the registration certificate of the V-Cross. The RC has been suspended for six months and during this time he will have to remove all the modifications and present the vehicle in stock condition at the RTO. During these 6 months, he is not allowed to drive this vehicle on the road.

MVD has also warned that if the vehicle is not brought back to stock condition in 6 months, the registration will be cancelled permanently. Any sort of modification (structural or petrformance) in any vehicle is illegal in India. Last year, MVD’s of different states had issued several challans against modifications. Many of the modified SUVs that were fined in Kerala were actually involved in rescue missions during Kerala floods.
