It's rumored to pack in excess of 350 bhp, a figure that sounds insanely impressive for an electric SUV even in the global context. Such performance could change perceptions about electric vehicles in the country. In India, EVs have been traditionally considered practical but uninspiring in terms of performance. That high power output should be enough to challenge the notion that EVs aren’t for them and may appeal to those who have been skeptical about EVs. But it also provokes questions about whether such high performance is necessary or desirable in India. While some say it could help break stereotypes and show off India’s engineering capabilities, others fear it will distract from more important issues regarding EV adoption such as range and charging infrastructure. But there’s also debate over whether this focus on power fits with the eco friendly image of EVs.
