The intention of govt. is to make money on sin goods. Vehicles for passenger travel (less than 13 seaters) fall in that category. Therefore, by restricting ITC, govt. makes money.
Link to business functions is not sufficient here. But, a person who trades in vehicles, i.e. buy & sell will be able to claim as he is not purchasing vehicle for its utility but is purchasing for further sale.
Please go through Section 17(5) of CGST Act. Also, where ITC on the vehicle is ineligible (conceptually) - then ITC on the repairs, maintenance, insurance, leasing/renting, is also ineligible. (applicable vice versa too).
