Marking upcoming global debut of 15 August, Mahindra teases audience with Thar.e concept

The future Thar EV concept has been teased by Mahindra in advance of its international premiere on August 15 in South Africa. This validates the pre-information, and the teaser indicates that the name of the electric off-roader concept will be Thar.e.

In South Africa, the Mahindra Thar.e concept will make its premiere where Mahindra also will present a pickup idea. The social media teaser provides us with a few further pointers in addition to the name of what to anticipate. The design of the concept will incorporate LED lights with Squircle-like design features. The lights also display a pickup idea that Mahindra will display during the event: a pixel structure.

It is theoretically feasible to electrify a ladder-frame platform; the Ford F150 Lightning truck is one example. Mahindra has been experimenting with electric ladder-frame cars because the company also makes commercial vehicles.

However, Mahindra won't have to deal with the weight and space constraints the existing Thar's ladder-frame would provide if it uses the new born-electric platform for the Thar.e. As a result, the Thar.e would have a greater range, be lighter, and have more room for its batteries. Stay tuned for further information because elements like its range and engine are yet unknown.
