Mahindra Unveils NU_IQ Platform and Four Futuristic SUV Concepts for a No-Compromise Mobility Future

Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd has unveiled its all-new modular, multi-energy NU_IQ platform, set to underpin a new generation of disruptive SUVs. Showcasing the future of premium SUV mobility, the company presented four groundbreaking concept models — Vision.S, Vision.T, Vision.SXT, and Vision.X — each designed to blend advanced technology, bold design, and world-class performance.

The NU_IQ platform embodies Mahindra’s strategy to “free customers from compromises” by delivering vehicles that combine versatility, premium features, and sustainability. Designed for multiple powertrains and body styles, NU_IQ offers unmatched flexibility to cater to diverse markets — including both right-hand and left-hand drive regions — while staying true to Mahindra’s core SUV DNA.

Four Concepts Defining the Next SUV Era

• Vision.S – A statement of sporty solidity, designed for adventure and urban sophistication.
• Vision.T – Born Iconic, combining rugged capability with premium comfort.
• Vision.SXT – A modern evolution of the Born Iconic SUV spirit, engineered for global appeal.
• Vision.X – Sculptural athleticism, blending dynamic performance with refined elegance.

Developed collaboratively by Mahindra India Design Studio (MIDS) in Mumbai and Mahindra Advanced Design Europe (MADE) in Banbury, UK, these SUVs reflect Mahindra’s HEARTCORE design philosophy, reimagined under the theme “Opposites Attract” — where contrasting elements create a bold, expressive design language.
