Fans and car enthusiasts were left wondering whether Mahindra is finally working on a new sedan, a model class the company has avoided in recent years. Social media users had mixed reactions to the post.
A user said, “Everything is good, but Mahindra needs to make a Class Sedan Model now as it can give competition to all higher end models of the current Market as a middle class car like Verna, Ciaz and City."

Another commented, “Design surely is a differentiator. But the design of an automobile also affects the psyche of the driver. Sober design induces sobriety. While a loud design turns the driver into a monster. We know so well which cars to avoid on roads in India. It’s the design."

“Design remains Mahindra’s Achilles’ heel. Great engineering, but the aesthetics still haven’t caught up.." an individual wrote on X.
“Why is curvature design very rare in our Indian cars?" another user enquired.
Despite the differing views, the introduction of the updated MIDS suggests that something exciting is in the works.
As a result of Anand Mahindra’s mysterious social media hints and the growing expectations of fans, everyone is now wondering if the carmaker is preparing to make a serious move into the fiercely competitive sedan market, which is currently dominated by well-known models like the Hyundai Verna, Honda City, and others.
