Mahindra has three
all-new models lined-up for launch this fiscal. The all-new models planned
after the trio will follow only in CY2020. By September 2018, the Mahindra
Marazzo will go on sale. Soon after, but before Diwali, the Mahindra Rexton
will follow as the homegrown automaker’s most expensive model to the date. In
the meanwhile, the company’s first revamped dealerships branded ‘World of SUVs’
are expected to open doors to customers seeking premium SUVs with an improved
shopping experience.
After the Mahindra
Rexton, the Mahindra S201, a new sub-4 metre B-SUV going directly against the
Ford EcoSport and Maruti Vitara Brezza, will reach showrooms. There’s one more
launch planned during FY2019, but that’s not an all-new model.
Following the
Mahindra S201, the entire calendar year 2019 will see no full model changes or
completely new model launches from Mahindra. We will have to wait until 2020
for that. Mahindra has several new generation/completely new models in the
pipeline. The launches beginning in 2020 will include the next-gen Mahindra
XUV500, the next-gen Mahindra Scorpio and the next-gen Mahindra Thar. Two new
EVs are also planned, a sedan and an SUV. Both new pure electric models will
have a 380-volt powertrain. The sedan will employ a 68 PS electric
motor, while the SUV will use a 122 PS) electric motor.
