In coming years, Mahindra will offer several electric vehicles in its lineup to chooose from. At the global event in South Africa, Mahindra has confirmed that it will be electrifying all its existing Internal Combustion Electric Vehicles SUVs.
A positive thing about the news is that electrification of the present Internal Combustion Engine Vehicles will not be an unusual or new project to the manufacturer. The all new electric lineup of the company will be based on company’s new INGLO Platform. Although, the company is expected to change the design language of vehicles to some extent. If we exclude the signature features of these SUVs, everything including the chassis will be new. The all new electrified lineup of the SUVs will be introduced in the market with a new name.
