M&M
showcased the Mahindra XUV Aero Coupe concept at the Automobile Barcelona 2017.
There’s no word from Mahindra about its production plans.
The XUV Aero Coupe made its debut at the Auto Expo
2016 as a design study from Mahindra for garnering response for a future XUV
coupe. Its claimed to have received a positive response at the Auto Expo 2016
as well as at clinics, but back in September 2016, a report said that the
market was not ready for premium products from local manufacturers, according
to Mahindra.
If it is green-lit for production, the XUV Aero will
launch in the market within two years. Speaking about the XUV Aero back in
September, Dr Pawan Goenka, MD of Mahindra & Mahindra, was quoted saying: We would want to launch it. We have already done
some initial engineering work but we have not finalised anything about its
business viability.
The concept was designed solely by Mahindra’s Design
Studio and modelled by Pininfarina. If a production model came to fruition,
Pininfarina could assist in offering final design touches.
