A Mahindra Vision T prototype was spied testing on our roads for the first time. Though the pre-production prototype was heavily camouflaged, the spy shots suggest that the production-spec SUV could carry over several design cues from the Vision T concept. The Vision T itself is an evolution of the Thar.e concept, which was showcased in August 2023.

Mahindra Vision T prototype spy shot details
Exterior
Up front, the prototype has a split grille with horizontal slats similar to the Vision T. Additionally, it has a flat bonnet, an upright windscreen, pronounced wheel arches and an off-road spec front bumper. As for the rectangular outer rear-view mirrors, they appear similar to those of the Thar Roxx. The halogen headlights, as well as the tail-lights, are likely to be temporary units; LED units are expected in the final version.
One can notice that the vehicle sits high off the ground, and it also had side steps. Speaking of the wheels, they now have a more traditional design than the Vision T's polygonal units. Like the Vision T, the pre-production prototype opts for vertically positioned rear door handles, instead of a traditional horizontal placement.
The rear quarter glass area is hidden completely, and a tailgate-mounted spare wheel is missing; the production version is likely to get one, just like the Thar Roxx. A high-mounted stop lamp and an upright rear glass are among other design highlights.
Interior
The interior spy shot reveals A-pillar mounted grab handles and a digital driver's display. While the other cabin features are largely hidden, the production-spec SUV could be equipped with features such as wireless charging, steering-mounted audio controls, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, automatic climate control and more.
It remains to be seen if the carmaker carries over the panoramic sunroof, portrait-style touchscreen, and the new, three-spoke steering wheel and from the Vision T.
