    INGLO platform

    In May of this year, Mahindra and Volkswagen signed a deal to use the MEB platform to develop its system which is now the INGLO skateboard platform that will underpin these cars. Some of the highlights of this new platform include the use of Blade and Prismatic batteries, capacities in the range of 60-80kWH, fast charging up to 175kWH, and outputs in the range of 170-290kWH and a 0-100kmph time of under six seconds. The vehicles developed off this platform can be had with optional AWD, drive modes, ADAS and the capability to handle L2+ autonomous driving.
