Not just Sierra, the company is also considering a modern-day Sumo. However, Pratap Bose believes that the vehicles have changed dramatically over the last two decades and it would require thorough investigation before reviving any of these 2 SUVs. The Sumo did well for the homegrown automaker, though taste of buyers is now changed. The next-gen Sumo would continue to be a people-mover, but would have different characteristics and design.
