Powerful battery and range
The Mahindra XUV700 EV is likely to get an 80kWh high-capacity battery pack, which can give a range of around 500-550 km on a single charge. It is expected to get an all-wheel-drive (AWD) system with a dual motor setup, which can generate around 340-370bhp of power and more than 600Nm of torque. This will allow the SUV to accelerate from 0 to 100 kmph in just 6 seconds.
Futuristic touch in design
The design of the XUV700 EV will be different and more futuristic than its petrol-diesel version. It will get closed-grille design, new LED headlamps, redesigned bumpers and special blue accents, which will give it an electric identity. Apart from this, the new design of alloy wheels and sleek taillights will give the SUV a premium and modern look.
Exterior
The front design of the XUV700 EV is extremely attractive, which includes inverted L-shaped connected LED DRLs and split headlight setup. These design elements make it similar to the XEV 9e (coupe version), but the design of the XUV700 EV is more like a traditional SUV. The number plate is placed in the upper part at the front, and the presence of the ADAS radar module in the lower bumper makes it technologically advanced.
In the side profile, the look of the XUV.e8 is similar to its ICE model, while the sloped roofline in the XUV.e9 gives it an aggressive and attractive look. At the rear, the design of the taillights is also new and modern, which gives this SUV a premium appeal.
Interior
The interior of the XUV700 EV is premium and modern like its ICE model. It has a setup of dual 10.25-inch touchscreen displays (infotainment and digital instrument cluster), which makes it a high-tech cabin. The dashboard design is similar to the XUV700 ICE, but there are changes like a new two-spoke steering wheel and a copper-finish Twin Peaks logo that distinguish it as an electric model.
The interior features premium leather seats, dual-tone theme, and a panoramic sunroof. Also, a 6-way power-adjustable driver seat, memory function, and ventilated front seats give it a luxury SUV feel. The second row has a choice of bench or captain seats, and the third row is comfortable for children or small adults.
High-tech package in features
Mahindra XUV700 EV will get high-end features like 12.3-inch dual-screen setup, advanced connected car technology, 360-degree camera, ADAS (Level 2) safety features, ventilated seats, panoramic sunroof and premium sound system. Along with this, wireless charging and fast-charging support will also be available, which can charge 80% of the battery in just 30 minutes.
Launch timeline and price
Mahindra XUV700 EV may make its global debut in the second half of 2025, and it may be launched in the Indian market around the festive season. It is expected to be priced around ₹ 35-40 lakh (ex-showroom), and will compete with electric SUVs like the Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6 and BYD Atto 3.
Competition in the market
The XUV700 EV will compete with vehicles like Tata Harrier EV, MG ZS EV, and Hyundai Creta EV in the Indian market. Its long range, premium features, and safety rating make it a strong contender. Also, Mahindra’s reliability and brand value can make it the first choice of customers.
Conclusion
The Mahindra XUV700 EV is not only a powerful and stylish SUV, but it is also an important step towards promoting electric mobility in India. Its attractive design, premium interiors, long battery range, and high-tech features make it an ideal choice for customers who are environmentally conscious and at the same time want the experience of a luxury SUV. As the launch date approaches, more details about this vehicle will be revealed, but based on the information available so far, it can be said that the XUV700 EV is going to set a new standard on Indian roads.
If you are looking for an SUV that is the perfect blend of power, style, and smart technology, then the Mahindra XUV700 EV should definitely be on top of your list.
