Anand Mahindra has no luxury car. He drives the vehicle of his own company. Its a Scorpio.
\nThe 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.<\/p>\n
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.”<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
