Car company Mahindra & Mahindra has made a special group of cars called Born Electric EVs (BEVs). This group has all-electric cars like XUV.e, Thar.e, Scorpio.e, and Bolero.e, and the company introduced a new look for these electric vehicles on Tuesday.
The auto giant will build an E-SUV facility in Chakan, close to Pune, with a capacity to produce about 200,000 electric Sport Utility Vehicles (SUVs) annually, as part of its focus on the electric platform in the future years. The plant should be ready by the following year. In order to supply batteries for electric vehicles, the company also intends to build a battery assembly facility. The launch of the first electric vehicle is anticipated for Chakan in 2019.
