Mahindra Celebrating Independence Day with 6 SUV Reveals, Thar Sports and Electric Scorpio

Following the tradition, Mahindra is set to make Independence Day in a big way with a ‘Freedom_NU’ event. At the event, the company is set to unveil a total of five or six new SUVs. This is in continuation of Mahindra’s tradition of announcing big products on August 15th. Let's talk about these SUVs in detail - 

Key Mahindra Models to be Revealed

Mahindra will showcase 4 new concepts, namely Vision T, Vision X, Vision SXT and Vision S at the 'Freedom_NU' event on the occassion of Independence Day 2025. Adding to it, the company will introduce an all-new compact SUV and the BE 6 Dark Edition. 

Vision T

The Vision T concept will preview the brand’s long-awaited Thar electric SUV, which was first showcased in 2023 as the Thar.e electric concept. The teasers reveal top, side and rear shots of the SUV. It has squarish bonnet, pronounced wheel arches, all-terrain tyres, two-port grille with horizontal slats and Thar Roxx-like headlamp setup with squarish lighting element in the centre. 

Vision S

This concept could preview a new SUV joining the Scorpio brand, which currently has Classic and Scorpio N. This is likely to be the Scorpio electric, as teaser reveals a closed-off front fascia. It will have an upright nose, flared wheel arches, bonnet scoops on either side, inverted L-shaped headlights, chunky off-road biased tyres and others. 

Vision SXT

This concept will be one of the new models based on the brand’s new NU platform, which is versatile enough to accommodate petrol, diesel, hybrid and all-electric powertrains. The Vision SXT has a resemblance with the Vision T Concept, as both features similar flared wheel arches, flat bonnets and rugged all-terrain tyres. It is likely to be an all-new pick-up truck; most probably an evolution of the Global Pie Up Concept that debuted in 2023. 

Vision X

The new Vision X could preview an all-new electric concept under the XUV family. The teasers reveal that the electric concept will have XEV 9e-like full-width LED tail-lamp and a sculpted tailgate.
