The demand for electric cars in the Indian automobile market is increasing day by day. Except for Maruti, all major players have entered this segment. However, among all the auto companies, Tata Motors holds a distinct dominance. The company offers several cars in both the ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) and electric segments. Soon, another car will be added to Tata's EV lineup.
Yes, after the Tata Curvv EV, the company is set to bring another electric vehicle. Recently, the electric version of the Mahindra XUV 300 was spotted during testing. The petrol version of the Mahindra XUV 300 is already creating a buzz in the market.
With the new Mahindra XUV 300 electric car being tested, customer expectations have significantly increased. In the pictures that went viral during testing, the car's design appears slightly altered compared to the current XUV 300.
Mahindra XUV 300 EV
