Mahindra calls its new dedicated EVs as “born EVs” and hence the name of the collection of concepts is Born Electric Vision. The acronym B.E.V. is the same as that for battery electric vehicles. These are going to be brand new Mahindra EVs with no other powertrain option, unlike the upcoming electric version of the XUV300.

The teaser showcased silhouettes of three mid-sized to large electric SUVs of different sizes. Each of them features a similar light signature that debuted on the XUV700, a sign of Mahindra’s new design theme for upcoming models. The C-shaped signature is seen with the taillights as well.

Mahindra has been investing heavily into developing a new EV platform by leveraging all of its technological partnerships and combining the expertise of its global avenues. EVs built on this dedicated platform are expected to be compatible with high speed fast charging (like the Hyundai Ioniq 5’s capacity of upto 350kW), offer a choice of two- and four-wheel drive, and a new EV-specific cabin experience. The platform is also likely to be scalable, capable of spawning EVs for various segments and prices.
