May be next XUV or SCORPIO will be inspired by nature." Another commenter wrote, "what you have said is true. Basics of science had started from the most simplest of phenomenon."
Meanwhile in another development, Mahindra and Mahindra could consider investing in a battery-cell company to meet future electrification needs, its CEO said, after the company raised funds for its new electric vehicle (EV) unit at a $9.1 billion valuation, according to Reuters report.
Mahindra on Thursday raised $250 million from British International Investment for the unit and is exploring a partnership with Volkswagen AG to source such EV components as batteries and motors, the report said. Additionally, the report highlighted that Mahindra plans to launch five electric sport-utility vehicles (SUVs) over the next few years. These models are expected to contribute up to 30%, or about 200,000 units, of its total annual SUV sales by March 2027.
