Mahindra XUV400 EV is not just another electric SUV. It’s India’s homegrown push into the electric future. And this one’s got both style and substance. If you’re thinking about switching to an EV but still want that SUV feel, this might just be the car you were waiting for.
Let’s talk about why this electric SUV is buzzing in the market.
Bold Looks with That Mahindra Feel
The first thing that grabs attention is its design. The XUV400 EV carries the same strong and bold look that Mahindra is known for. It has sharp lines. A sporty front. And a smooth rear with LED tail lights that stretch across.
You’ll spot the copper-coloured highlights around the logo and body edges. These are not just design choices. They’re now a signature of Mahindra EVs. It gives the car a fresh, futuristic identity. Also, the build feels tough. Just like what we expect from Mahindra SUVs.
It’s a bit longer than the XUV300, which gives it a bigger boot and a stronger road presence. So, whether it’s city driving or highway cruising, it stands tall.
Powerful Performance That Feels Instant
This SUV may be electric, but it doesn’t hold back on power. The XUV400 EV comes with a 39.4 kWh battery pack. The motor produces about 150 PS of power and 310 Nm of torque. That means quick pickup and smooth acceleration.
It can go from 0 to 100 kmph in just 8.3 seconds. That’s quick for an SUV in this segment.
You also get three drive modes – Fun, Fast, and Fearless. Each mode changes the way the car responds. If you want better mileage, go for Fun. If you want excitement, switch to Fearless.
It feels super silent inside. No engine noise. And that instant torque gives you a nice push when you hit the pedal.
Range That Matches Daily Needs
One of the biggest worries with EVs is range. Mahindra seems to understand that well.
The XUV400 EV offers a claimed range of up to 456 km on a single charge (MIDC). In real-world driving, you can expect around 300 to 350 km, depending on how and where you drive. That’s more than enough for most users who drive in cities or take short trips.
And yes, charging is easy too. If you use a 50 kW fast charger, it can charge from 0 to 80% in around 50 minutes. For home charging, it takes about 6.5 hours with a 7.2 kW AC charger.
So if you plan your charging, range anxiety won’t be an issue.
Interior That’s Comfortable and Feature-Packed
Inside, the cabin feels premium and modern. The dashboard layout is neat. The copper accents continue inside too, which gives it a unique EV touch.
Seats are comfy. Space in the back is good even for tall passengers. The boot space is larger than XUV300, so weekend trips are sorted.
You get a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. There’s also a digital instrument cluster, electric sunroof, auto AC, and connected car features like remote lock-unlock and charging status tracking.
The interface is user-friendly. Nothing feels overcomplicated, which is great for first-time EV users.
Safety and Mahindra Go Hand-in-Hand
Safety has always been a strong point for Mahindra. The XUV400 EV comes with 6 airbags, all-wheel disc brakes, ESP, ISOFIX mounts, and more. The body structure feels sturdy and solid. It’s built to handle impact well.
It also has regenerative braking with adjustable levels. This helps you recover energy while slowing down and adds to the overall range.
So yes, whether it’s performance, comfort, or safety, the XUV400 doesn’t compromise.
A Smart Pick for Urban India
The Mahindra XUV400 EV is clearly designed keeping Indian buyers in mind. It gives you the experience of driving a proper SUV. But with the savings and quietness of an electric vehicle.
For city drives, office runs, and weekend road trips, it checks all boxes. You also get the trust of Mahindra’s wide service network.
So if you’re planning to go electric but still want that big-car feel, XUV400 EV might be your perfect match.
