Mahindra XUV400 EV: Bold Indian Electric SUV With 456Km Range, Fast Charging and TurboDrive Feel

Mahindra XUV400 EV

The Mahindra XUV400 EV combines traditional SUV muscularity with modern EV aesthetics. Based on the same platform as the XUV300, the EV version gets EV-specific styling cues like copper dual-tone accents, closed-off front grille, projector headlamps with DRLs, and striking LED tail lights.

Stylish, Muscular Design With XUV DNA and Copper Accents

The XUV400 is also longer than its ICE sibling at 4200mm, giving it better road presence and more boot space. With its bold stance, sculpted body lines, roof rails, and diamond-cut 16-inch alloys, the XUV400 manages to maintain a rugged SUV character while signaling its electrified future.

Massive 456Km Certified Range With Dual Battery Options

What makes the XUV400 stand out is its long-range capability. It is offered in two variants — EC with 34.5kWh battery offering 375km range, and EL with 39.4kWh battery offering an impressive 456km certified range (MIDC). This allows buyers to choose based on their budget and usage. Both batteries are IP67 rated for dust and water resistance, and they support DC fast charging which can juice up the battery from 0 to 80% in just 50 minutes, while a regular AC charger takes about 6.5 hours. With the larger battery pack, the XUV400 comfortably becomes one of the longest-range EVs in its segment.

110kW Motor Power, 310Nm Torque, and Fast Acceleration

Performance is at the heart of the XUV400’s appeal. It is powered by a 110kW electric motor that generates 310Nm of instant torque, propelling the SUV from 0 to 100 km/h in just 8.3 seconds — making it faster than many ICE compact SUVs. The SUV comes with three drive modes: Fun, Fast, and Fearless, which not only alter throttle response but also modify the regenerative braking levels for an adaptive driving experience. It also includes a single-pedal driving mode for stop-go traffic. The suspension has been tuned for Indian roads, and the steering remains light and responsive for city and highway usage alike.

Connected Cabin With Digital Cluster and BlueSense+ Smart App

The interior of the Mahindra XUV400 gets a black and copper dual-tone finish with premium fabric or leatherette seats depending on the variant. The 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system supports Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and the digital instrument cluster shows EV-specific data like battery, range, regen level, and more. It also comes with BlueSense+ connected car tech with over 60 features including live tracking, geo-fencing, charge status, remote lock/unlock, and climate control. Other comforts include push-button start, cruise control, auto AC, electric ORVMs, and a spacious 378-litre boot for practical urban and intercity usage.

Top Safety With 6 Airbags, ESP, and Global NCAP Ratings

Safety remains a key selling point for Mahindra’s EV lineup. The XUV400 is built on the same platform that earned the XUV300 a 5-star Global NCAP crash safety rating. It features 6 airbags, ESP, hill hold assist, all four disc brakes, ISOFIX mounts, and a high-strength steel body. Rear parking sensors and a camera with adaptive guidelines add to its ease of use. The robust build quality, combined with premium safety kit, makes the XUV400 one of the most secure electric vehicles in its segment. Priced from ₹15.49 lakh to ₹17.49 lakh (ex-showroom), the XUV400 undercuts rivals like MG ZS EV while delivering top-tier range, performance, and practicality.
