Mahindra just pulled the wraps off something special this Independence Day. The Vision S isn’t just another SUV – it’s the kind of vehicle that makes you stop and stare. Built on their new NU_IQ platform, this machine promises to deliver where it counts, with multiple engine options tailored for Indian roads.
First Impressions: This SUV Means Business
Take one look at the Vision S and you’ll see Mahindra’s DNA all over it. That familiar boxy silhouette? Check. But there’s more – the front end lights up with LED headlights that mean business, flanked by vertical daytime runners that give it a distinctive nighttime signature.
What really catches the eye are the little details:
-
Flush-mounted door handles that give it a sleek, modern profile
-
Camera-based mirrors replacing the old bulky ones
-
Those squared-off wheel arches wrapped in black plastic – because this isn’t some city-slicker pretending to be tough
And that spare wheel mounted right on the tailgate? That’s Mahindra telling the world this is the real deal.
Step Inside: Where Practical Meets Premium
Open the door and you’re greeted with an interior that gets the balance just right. The navy blue and grey color scheme feels premium without trying too hard.
The dashboard’s clean layout puts two screens front and center – one for the driver, one for entertainment. The steering wheel’s got a sporty three-spoke design, while the center console keeps things simple with touch controls for the AC and a handy wireless charging pad.
The Competition Better Watch Out
When the Vision S hits showrooms in 2027, it’s coming for everyone:
-
The Tata Nexon’s comfort
-
The Hyundai Venue’s tech
-
The Maruti Brezza’s value
With prices expected between ₹10.5-17.5 lakh, Mahindra’s playing both sides – offering something for buyers who want premium features without breaking the bank, and those looking to step up from entry-level SUVs.
More Than Metal and Wheels
This isn’t just another product launch for Mahindra. The Vision S represents their ambitious Vision 2027 plan – a statement that they’re not just participating in the Indian auto market, but aiming to lead it.
For buyers, it promises something we’ve all been waiting for: an SUV that’s actually built for Indian conditions, packed with modern features, and doesn’t look like every other crossover on the road.
One thing’s for sure – the Indian SUV landscape just got a whole lot more interesting. The Vision S might be the wake-up call the competition didn’t know they needed.
