If you are fond of enjoying real off-roading, then Mahindra is bringing a big surprise for you! On Independence Day this year, Mahindra introduced the Vision T concept, which is the future of the new generation Thar. This new Thar will not only be more powerful and advanced, but it will also have electric and hybrid versions. So let’s know what features this new SUV will bring.
Vision T Concept
Mahindra’s Vision T concept has been designed in Mumbai and UK based design studios. It has a more mature and rugged look than the current Thar. This concept is built on Mahindra’s new NU IQ monocoque platform, which supports petrol-diesel, hybrid and electric powertrains. This means that the new Thar can also get a Thar.e electric version!
Design
- Split grille and muscular bumper – which further enhance its rugged look.
- LED headlamps and four individual DRLs – which make it stand out on the road at night.
- High ground clearance and all-terrain tyres – which give it the ability to tackle any difficult terrain with ease.
- Roof carrier hooks and exposed door hinges – which reflect its adventure-ready character.
Interior
- Large portrait-style touchscreen – which will house all the infotainment functions.
- Digital instrument cluster – which will display speed, fuel and other important details.
- Panoramic sunroof – which will let natural light into the cabin.
- Minimalistic dashboard – which will give a premium look with black finish.
Powertrain
Mahindra can also launch electric and hybrid versions of the new Thar along with petrol-diesel. The electric version (Thar.e) will have longer range and faster acceleration, while the hybrid version will give better mileage.
Launch and Price
So far Mahindra has not given any date for the production version of Vision T, but according to experts, it can be launched by 2026-27. Its price will be higher than the current Thar, especially the electric version.
