It appears that Mahindra is actively working on creating an electric version of the Thar model. A camouflaged Mahindra SUV was recently spotted, which is presumed to be a test vehicle related to the electric version.
The design of this tested SUV largely resembles the Vision T Concept, which Mahindra presented in August 2025. This concept, in turn, was inspired by the Thar.e model introduced in 2023. Mahindra showcased this concept in South Africa.
Spy shots suggest what the future off-road Mahindra SUV might look like. The front end of the car is very similar to the Vision T Concept, featuring a wide, two-tiered grille and square headlights. LEDs may be used for the lighting.
Due to the camouflage, many details remain unclear. However, the vehicle retains a flat clamshell-style hood, a vertical windshield, and a massive, angular front bumper. It also has rectangular side mirrors characteristic of the Thar.
The side profile shows that this SUV will have a five-door configuration, a flat roof, and vertical pillars. A flat side step is provided, extending along the entire door. The car is equipped with large wheels; tires of 19 or 20 inches are likely to be used.
As for the rear, the test SUV has a large, vertical tailgate and a large rear window. It lacks an external spare wheel, although the company may add one in the production version. There is currently no information regarding the market release timeline for this vehicle.
