The Mullvad Browser is a privacy-focused web browser developed in collaboration with Mullvad VPN and the Tor Project. It aims to eliminate data collection and provide user-centric browsing services, ensuring online activity remains private and secure. The browser has the same fingerprinting protection as the Tor Browser, but connects to the internet without Tor Network or VPN instead. The Mullvad Browser provides anti-fingerprinting protections.
The idea is to provide one more alternative – beside the Tor Network – to browse the internet with more privacy. To get as many people as possible to fight the big data gathering of today. To free the internet from mass surveillance.

Mullvad means mole in Swedish. Like the digging animal. Also like “we have a mole working on the inside.”
Feels like a rubbish name for anything oriented towards privacy.
It's called that because moles are a tunnelling animal... Like a VPN tunnel...
That makes sense.
They've been an extremely reputable "record-less" VPN for multiple years now.
Oh yeah I know. Name just doesn't inspire confidence. MetaCubed's reply makes a lot of sense though.
Don't get confused by the name. Mullvad has a proven trackrecord to not keep any data of their users. Even the payment process is anonymously. They partner with privacy and security advocates like TorProject, MalwareBytes, Mozilla ... 100% legit
