The model is capable of covering 456 km with a fully charged battery

India’s leading SUV manufacturer Mahindra, which once had a strong in Malaysia, unveiled its first ever electric SUV, called the Mahindra XUV400.

The XUV400 is the first EV from Mahindra to feature the twin peaks logo with satin copper finish, giving it a distinctive presence on the road.

Measuring 4,200 mm long with a wheelbase of 2600 mm, the C-segment SUV offers up to 418 litres of boot space. At 1821 mm, it is also the widest e-SUV in the category – offering plenty of shoulder space for occupants. 

Built in collaboration with global partners from South Korea, the XUV400 leverages their strengths across various segments – an advanced tech eco-system for speed and expertise – including calibration, system integration and vehicle validation. 

Capable of covering 456 kilometres with a fully charged battery, the Mahindra XUV400 comes with a 39.4kWh battery pack that uses Lithium-ion cells, which takes 50 minutes to complete 80% charging with the 50kW DC fast charger. 

When charged via a 7.2 kW/32A outlet, it takes 6 hours 30 minutes for 0-100% charge. The same is achieved in 13 hours using a standard 3.3 kW/16A domestic socket.

As far as the performance goes, the Mahindra XUV400 is capable of sprinting from naught to 100 kph in 8.3 seconds, and goes on to reach a top speed of 150 kph.

The XUV400 offers various drive modes (Fun, Fast, and Fearless), and also has a single pedal drive mode called the ‘Lively mode’.

Design wise, the Mahindra XUV400 features a signature trim accent in satin copper finish, and hides on high gloss alloy-wheels featuring a diamond-cut high-contrast surface treatment. Also standard are projector headlamps, LED tail-lamps, and a dual-tone body colour.

Inside, the electric SUV comes with a seven-inch touch screen infotainment system equipped with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and a BlueSense Plus App which offers 60-plus mobile app based connected features, including accessibility to nearby charging points and Mahindra service stations.
