Mahindra debuts Funster Concept, an unhinged topless EV

Just as planned, the one of the leading Indian carmakers has brought its futuristic design study to the India Auto Expo 2020 in New Delhi.

The open-top ride packs dual engines mounted one per axle, joining their efforts for 313 hp (233 kW). The prototype accelerates to 100 km/h (62 mph) in under five seconds and maxes out at 200 km/h (124 mph). A 59.2-kWh battery grants it up to 520 kilometers (323 miles) of range, Mahindra claims.

The fake radiator grille references the designs of marque’s other recent releases, and the car takes a total of four passengers. The only display inside doubles as a dashboard and infotainment system.

You will probably be justified in thinking that the Mahindra Funster will never reach production in its current state. Local media claim that the second-gen XUV500 will adopt at least some of its styling cues, but that’s about it.
