Music maestro AR Rahman said, ““When I see innovative electric vehicle designs abroad, I often wondered why India hadn’t’ yet taken that leap. Collaborating with Mahindra changed that perception for me. Beyond their remarkable designs, they valued my insights on the sonic experience, emphasizing both empowering experience and the immersive feel of being in an eco-friendly, silent SUV at par with the best in the world Our partnership goes beyond merely crafting sounds; it embodies the essence of an Indian innovation at par. While I’ve used instruments from Japan, America, and Europe, witnessing India emerge as a leader with pioneering innovations fills me with immense pride. In collaboration with Mahindra, our aim is to deliver a sonic experience that’s both global and uniquely Indian – a sound that resonates with pride and celebrates India’s significant transformation”

The sonic compositions were developed after Rahman spent time at Mahindra’s testing facility in Kanchipuram, analyzing soundscapes of leading electric vehicles. The goal was to mix cutting-edge tech with a harmonious in-car experience, simulating vehicle sounds while keeping passengers attuned to their driving mode. This formed a harmonious blend that captivates the soul and complements visual enhancements such as active ambient lighting and high-resolution animations.
