Mahindra & Mahindra, India’s very own SUV manufacturer has been known to experiment a lot with their offerings in India and globally too. Recently the company launched the KUV100which is its smallest SUV offering and competes with hatchbacks like the Maruti Swift and Ford Figo. Now the company is looking right at the opposite end of the spectrum. The SUV manufacturer will be showcasing a new SUV Coupe concept named as the ‘XUV500 Aero’ at the Auto Expo 2016 on the 4th of February, 2016.

Mahindra’s new concept sketch looks very stylish indeed. The front resembles that of the XUV500 SUV while the rear looks completely reworked. Being a concept sketch, the car features oversized everything like the wheel arches and wheels. Also not to forget that this is a two door SUV Coupe concept. The coupe like rear end features a long windscreen and three-piece vertical taillights, something like the Komodo Conceptthat was revealed a couple of years back. The Komodo Concept was more of a design study and never made it even to the clay model stage. But looks like Mahindra seems to be taking inputs from that design more recently.

Mahindra recently bought a controlling stakein Italian design marque Pininfarina. The Mahindra XUV500 Aero could be another design study by the company in India but we would more than accept if Mahindra plans to bring such a model out on the roads. No one in India has dared to enter into the SUV Coupe and globally only a couple of German manufacturers have given a throw at it. The XUV500 Aero is definitely something that we are looking forward to see at the 2016 Auto Expo. We will bring you live coverage of the happenings at the Mahindra stall. Until then, stay tuned to the ICB network.
