Looking externally, there seems no difference between an ordinary car and #-Link-Snipped-#. However the real fun is when you take a seat in the car. The vehicle features seating arrangement where you can rotate your position by 360 degrees. Not to mention the excitement when you are even able to move back and forth. There have been cars that banked upon the idea of producing better and efficient vehicles. These concepts have been mostly electric vehicles. It is perhaps first attempt by an Indian auto major of developing passenger-vehicle interface concept.

Until now, it was seen that driver was the sole controller of car. Neglecting a few exceptions, passengers were not able to interact with automobile technology. Even these 'exceptions' had to be supported with some kind of #-Link-Snipped-#. However, M&M's concept car has made the other inactive members to be engaged with car controls. Of course the mobility only deals with internal seating arrangements, audio/video controls and other electronic comforts. But how do you control your car? The answer is in your mobile! The concept vehicle is smartly designed have mobility controlled by devices that passengers are likely to carry. In other words, you will control your car with a Smartphone.

The company focuses on making this an affordable car. Mahindra is also launching #-Link-Snipped-#, Rexton and Korando E at the #-Link-Snipped-#. The engineers have lived up to the expectations and delivered cars that are rare mixture of latest technology and fair economics.
