Mahindra has been teasing its upcoming range of born electric SUVs for a while now. And now, a new teaser video shows five new SUVs that will be unveiled on August 15. 

  • Upcoming Mahindra SUVs designed as EVs from the ground up
  • Teaser shows one SUV may be the electric XUV700

In the teaser, out of the five SUVs showcased, four seem to have a coupe-SUV body style. The fifth one looks like an electric version of Mahindra’s current flagship, the XUV700. The video shows the five upcoming born electric SUVs in profile, albeit as silhouettes.

The new EVs will be showcased at the Mahindra Advanced Design Europe (MADE) studio in Oxfordshire, UK, headed by chief designer Pratap Bose. The 'born electric' tagline implies that all the SUVs have been designed as electric vehicles from the ground up.

A previous teaser, which also mentioned the August 15 reveal date, showed three SUVs as silhouettes as well. However, what was clear in them were the C-shaped LED signature lamps, both at the front and back. This though is not visible in the latest teaser.

Mahindra previously sold the e2o, e2o Plus and eVerito in the country. 

Not much is known about these five electric SUVs at this point, but Mahindra is expected to release more details in the run-up to their unveiling on Independence Day 2022.
