Mahindra is gearing up to put up a big show at the upcoming Auto Expo 2020 and electric vehicles are going to take the centre stage this time around. The biggest surprise is the arrival of an electric version of the Mahindra XUV500 at the Auto Expo. However, the carmaker is most likely to showcase the prototype-spec of the eXUV500 and specifications are yet to be revealed. We already know that Mahindra will launch three new EVs by 2021 and we expect all of them to make an appearance at the Auto Expo.
