Overview
- Production‑spec Vision S prototypes have been spied on test, with reports pointing to an early‑2027 debut as the first NU_IQ model.
- Mahindra says NU_IQ is a front‑drive‑biased, flat‑form monocoque that supports ICE, hybrid and EV powertrains with optional AWD and targets 3.9–4.3‑metre SUVs.
- The Vision T refines the 2023 Thar.e idea and is presented as a precursor to the next‑gen Thar family, moving from ladder‑frame RWD heritage to the NU_IQ architecture; likely EV battery sharing with BE 6 and XEV 9e is reported but unconfirmed.
- The sub‑4‑metre Vision X concept previews a crossover direction, with some reports linking it to a future XUV 3XO replacement, a role Mahindra has not confirmed.
- Parallel updates continue on current models, with the XUV700 facelift spied featuring a triple‑screen dashboard and Harman Kardon audio, alongside ongoing tests for an updated 3‑door Thar and a new Bolero reported for the near term.
