Mahindra, a leading Indian automaker, is planning to launch all-electric versions of its SUVs, Scorpio, and Bolero.
Media reports suggest that we could name the electric SUVs ‘Scorpio’ and ‘Bolero.’
Mahindra has already announced that it plans to launch seven EVs in India by 2030.
Rajesh Jejurikar, Mahindra’s Executive Director and CEO (Auto and Farm Sector), made this announcement during an investor presentation.
Rajesh Jejurikar stated that “all ICE brands would be electrified over time,” reinforcing Mahindra’s commitment to electric vehicle (EV) adoption.
The new electric models will follow the naming pattern of their petrol counterparts, similar to XUV.e and Thar.e, by incorporating the ‘.e’ suffix.
Mahindra had previously unveiled the Thar.e concept, which featured a 109hp/135Nm front motor and a 286hp/535Nm rear motor, providing it with all-wheel-drive capability. The company builds it on a modified version of its INGLO (India GLObal) skateboard platform, codenamed P1.
The INGLO platform has the capacity to house a 79-kWh battery pack along with four-wheel-drive capabilities.
The P1 platform offers a wheelbase between 2,775mm and 2,975mm, exceeding the current-gen Bolero’s 2,680mm and Scorpio N’s 2,750mm. Mahindra can use the similar P1 platform for the all-electric Scorpio and Bolero as well.
Mahindra has announced plans to launch seven new EVs by 2030; the Scorpio EV and Bolero EV may be among them.
