In the ever-evolving realm of electric mobility, the Mahindra XEV 9e asserts its dominance with a sophisticated blend of design, performance, and safety. Built on the futuristic INGLO platform, this mid-size electric crossover isn’t just another EV—it’s Mahindra’s most ambitious electric SUV yet.
Striking Design & Smart Platform
The XEV 9e’s coupe-style SUV silhouette makes an immediate impression, accentuated by flared wheel arches, sleeker proportions, and alloy wheels. The INGLO skateboard platform ensures stability, optimal battery placement, and maximized cabin space.
Powertrain & Range
The XEV 9e comes with two battery packs: 59 kWh and 79 kWh Blade LFP.
- 59 kWh: ~542 km range (MIDC)
- 79 kWh: up to 656 km (MIDC) and ~533 km WLTP
Performance ranges between 228–286 bhp with 380 Nm torque, delivering a confident driving experience. Charging is quick: AC home charging options plus DC fast charging up to 180 kW, reaching 20–80% in about 20 minutes.
Premium Cabin Features
- Triple 12.3″ screen layout for driver, infotainment, and passenger.
- Panoramic sunroof, dual-zone climate, 16-speaker Harman Kardon audio.
- OTA updates, wireless smartphone integration, AI-based voice assistants.
- Ventilated seats, gesture tailgate, in-cabin camera, video calling (top variants).
Safety & ADAS
The SUV scores 5-star Bharat NCAP with:
- 6–7 airbags
- Level 2 ADAS (adaptive cruise, lane-keep assist, emergency braking)
- ESC, hill-hold, ISOFIX
- 360° camera, HUD, blind-spot detection (top trims)
Pricing & Variants
- Pack 1 (59 kWh) ~₹21.9 lakh
- Pack 2 (59 kWh) ~₹24.9 lakh
- Pack 3 Select (59 kWh) ~₹27.9 lakh
- Pack 3 (79 kWh) ~₹30.5–31.25 lakh
Market Success
Within just 70 days of launch, Mahindra sold over 10,000 units of the XEV 9e and its sibling models, showing strong demand in India’s growing EV market. Mahindra aims for 20% of SUV sales to be electric by 2027.
Why It Stands Out
- Long 656 km range
- Advanced cabin tech with triple displays
- 5-star safety assurance
- Multiple variants for budget and luxury buyers
- Built on INGLO EV-dedicated architecture
Conclusion
The Mahindra XEV 9e is more than an electric SUV—it’s a statement of India’s EV future. With performance, range, luxury, and safety bundled into one, it appeals to both business and personal buyers seeking premium electric mobility.
