Anand Mahindra has no luxury car. He drives the vehicle of his own company. Its a Scorpio.
The controversy began when an X user shared a post questioning why the Mahindra chairperson drove foreign-made vehicles instead of the ones made here. The post included a screenshot of an online article claiming Mahindra owned luxury cars such as Ferrari California T,Porsche 911, and Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG.
I Mahindra said, “I was taught how to drive by my mother in her light sky-blue Premier car, which she nicknamed ‘BlueBird.’ Since joining Mahindra in 1991, I have exclusively driven vehicles made by our company.”
He drives a red Mahindra Scorpio N, a model built by his own company,and occasionally uses his wife’s silver Mahindra XUV 700, the Mahindra & Mahindra chairperson said.
The 69-year-old also addressed the photo showing him in front of a foreign car. He clarified that the photo was taken at the Monterey Car Week during the launch of Mahindra’s Battista electric hypercar. The car in the photo, a classic Cisitalia, was designed by Pininfarina, a company owned by Mahindra.
