Mahindra is gearing up for one of its busiest product-offensive phases yet. Over the next two years, the company plans to expand its SUV portfolio across lifestyle, electric, premium, and compact segments. Multiple test vehicles have already been spotted on Indian roads, revealing that Mahindra is deep into the development cycle of several new models. Hereโs a look at all eight SUVs that are expected to arrive soon.
1. BE Rall-E: The Adventure-Spec BE 6
One of Mahindraโs most interesting upcoming offerings is the BE Rall-E, a rugged, adventure-oriented version of the BE 6.
This model is being tailored for off-road lovers and is expected to feature:
- Heavy-duty body cladding
- A more robust suspension setup
- A tougher, more purposeful stance
Under the skin, the BE Rall-E will likely share the same electric motor and battery options as the BE 6. If development continues as planned, it could be introduced as early as next year.
2. Thar EV: Electric Off-Roading Takes a Leap
Mahindra has already showcased the Thar EV concept, hinting at a five-door, all-electric version of the iconic SUV.
This EV will be targeted at buyers who want the Thar experience but in a quieter, zero-emission package. It is expected to sit alongside the ICE Thar rather than replace it.
3. Scorpio EV: Under Consideration
The success of the Scorpio lineup has encouraged Mahindra to explore an all-electric Scorpio.
Although still under internal evaluation, leaks suggest that the EV could be based on the futuristic Vision S concept and will be underpinned by Mahindraโs next-gen NU_IQ platform.
4. NU_IQ Platform: A Major Upgrade for Mahindra
The NU_IQ architecture is set to be one of Mahindraโs biggest technical leaps. Production for this platform is expected to begin around 2027.
It will support:
- Next-generation electric SUVs
- Premium EVs
- Possible hybrid powertrains
This platform will become the backbone for multiple upcoming models.
5. Compact โBaby Scorpio Nโ SUV
Mahindra is also working on a new compact SUV that is informally referred to as the baby Scorpio N.
Various camouflaged prototypes have been spotted, hinting at a tough, upright design inspired by its larger sibling.
6. Vision X-Based Compact Crossover
Another small SUV in the pipeline is a crossover inspired by the Vision X concept.
This model will strengthen Mahindraโs presence in the compact SUV segment and will likely focus on youthful styling and modern tech.
7. XUV 3XO-Based Electric SUV
Mahindra is developing a compact electric SUV derived from the XUV 3XO, and it has already been caught testing several times. This EV will be positioned below the XUV400 and is expected to attract urban buyers looking for an affordable, feature-rich electric option.
8. Facelifted XUV700: Debuting in 2026
Among the earliest launches in this lineup will be the updated XUV700, expected in 2026.
Key updates will include:
- Redesigned bumpers
- Updated LED headlamps
- New alloy wheel designs
However, the biggest changes will happen inside. The cabin will receive a complete makeover, featuring:
- Premium materials
- A cleaner, more modern layout
- A new triple-screen dashboard setup
- A larger infotainment display
- A new digital driverโs display
- A dedicated passenger-side screen
XEV 9S: Mahindraโs Most Important EV Launch
Perhaps the most anticipated model is the XEV 9S, a three-row electric SUV derived from the XUV.e8.
It is scheduled to launch on November 27, 2025.
Highlights include:
- A sleeker, closed-off EV front fascia
