Mahindra's upcoming Vision S SUV has been spotted testing once again, giving a clearer idea of how the production version looks like. The prototype continues to wear heavy camouflage, but its boxy proportions, upright stance, and squared wheel arches remain visible. The tailgate-mounted spare wheel and short overhangs reinforce its rugged, adventure-ready character, staying true to the concept's design language.

The test mule shows squared windows, thick rear pillars, and a narrow rear windscreen, all of which were previewed in the Vision S concept. At the front, circular headlamps and a vertically slatted grille highlight the SUV's retro-inspired theme. The side profile reveals clean surfacing, large alloy wheels, and a strong shoulder line, while the rear seems to house tall vertical lamps beneath the camouflage. Despite the disguise, the proportions indicate Mahindra intends to keep the Vision S's identity largely intact for production.

Inside, earlier sightings revealed a panoramic sunroof stretching across the cabin, though it is unclear whether it will be a fixed glass unit or partially opening. Other features spotted include cruise control, a touchscreen infotainment system, a rear-centre armrest, manual handbrake, adjustable headrests, and three-point seatbelts for all passengers. These inclusions suggest Mahindra is balancing practicality with comfort, ensuring the Vision S appeals to both adventure enthusiasts and family buyers.

The SUV is based on Mahindra's NU IQ platform, which can support petrol, diesel, and electrified powertrains. While exact engine details remain unconfirmed, it is expected to be powered by  the 1.2-litre TGDi petrol engine (131 hp and 230 Nm of torque) or the 1.5-litre diesel engine that gives out 117 hp and a 300 Nm of torque in the XUV 3XO
