The XUV400, Mahindra’s first long-range EV, is nearly here after a long time. Test drives for the electric SUV have begun, and it has now arrived at the dealerships. We anticipate the automaker to announce its price shortly after opening reservations for the XUV400. The EV version of the automaker’s sub-4m SUV model, the XUV300, is the XUV400.
Up front, the electric SUV gets a closed grille and bumper with copper inserts and the copper-finished Mahindra logo. For the electric SUV, the carmaker has replaced the XUV300’s LED DRLs with copper elements.
On the side, you can see the pictured electric car had copper inserts in the body side moulding and was sporting 16-inch, dual-tone alloy wheels, indicating that it was a higher-specced variant. Although details of the variant lineup are still unknown, a recent online document had suggested that Mahindra will offer it in STD (base), EP and EL. At the back, the XUV400 had the new LED taillight setup along with copper-finished Mahindra logo and XUV400 badge.
The copper highlights continue on the inside of the EV as well as seen on the climate control rotator, steering wheel and the drive mode selector. Apart from that, we can also see the seven-inch touchscreen, push-button start/stop, and the single-pane sunroof.
Mahindra has equipped the XUV400 EV with a 39.4kWh battery pack. The EV offers an ARAI-rated range of 456km and its battery can be juiced up from 0 to 80 per cent in 50 minutes with a 50kW DC fast charger.
