Mahindra XEV 7e – SUVs Launching in Early 2025Expected to be offered at a starting price of around Rs 20 lakh, Mahindra XEV 7e / XUV700 will take on rivals such as Harrier EV and BYD Atto 3
Mahindra has received an overwhelming response to its born-electric SUVs, BE 6 and XEV 9e. These contribute close to 9% of the company’s monthly sales. Joining them soon will be the XEV 7e, the electric version of the XUV700 SUV. As per sources, launch is expected in November 2025. Let’s check out the details.
Mahindra XEV 7e / XUV700 EV – Styling and features
As per the earlier naming convention, the electric version of XUV700 was scheduled to go on sale as the XUV.e8. With the updated naming strategy, as seen with XEV 9e and BE 6, the XUV700 electric is likely to go on sale as the XEV 7e. It retains the silhouette of the ICE-powered XUV700, but has a distinctive front and rear profile, which is not shared with upcoming XUV700 facelift.

XUV700 Electric or XEV 7e lighting elements will have a triangular setup, something similar to that of XEV 9e. There will be a full-width LED strip, sharp LED DRLs, a closed-off grille and sculpted bonnet design. With the flat, upright front fascia, the XEV 7e has a more dominating road presence. Side profile will be distinguishable by new alloy wheels with aero covers. XEV 7e will have flush door handles and refreshed C-pillar treatment.
At the rear, XEV 7e could feature tail lamps in an interconnected format via an LED strip. The tail lamp design could be the same as that of XUV700, with the possibility of minor changes in the detailing. Some updates are possible across the bumper section as well. XEV 7e is also expected to get some exclusive colour options.

Mahindra XEV 9e and BE 6For years, electric vehicles in India have largely been seen as second cars – ideal for short commutes, but not trusted for long highway journeys or family road trips. Mahindra is out to change that perception with the upcoming BE 6 and XEV 9e, built on its advanced INGLO platform. These new-age SUVs promise the range, space, performance, and value to confidently replace petrol/diesel vehicles as your primary car.
No More Range Anxiety
With a certified range of up to 683 km (500+ km real-world range from 79 kWh and 400+ km real-world range from 59 kWh), these EVs can handle intercity drives with ease. Thanks to 175 kW DC fast charging, the battery can go from 20% to 80% in just 20 minutes—less than the time it takes for a coffee break. Together, this makes long road trips practical and stress-free.

Everyday Practicality for Families
The flat-floor architecture of the INGLO platform, combined with a long wheelbase, offers more cabin space than comparable ICE SUVs. Add to that a usable frunk plus a large boot, and you get all the luggage room you need for holidays. Ride comfort is ensured by a 5-link independent rear suspension with frequency-selective dampers, tuned for Indian road conditions.
Performance Without Compromise
The BE 6 and XEV 9e are no compromise machines. With up to 282 bhp and 380 Nm torque, they sprint from 0–100 km/h in just 6.7 seconds and can touch speeds of 200+ km/h. Unlike most front-wheel-drive ICE rivals, these EVs offer rear-wheel-drive dynamics, making every drive more engaging.

Smarter, Safer, Better Value
Inside, you get a triple-screen cockpit, a 16-speaker 1400W audio system, self-parking, and Level 2+ ADAS, putting these SUVs at the cutting edge of technology. Ownership costs are lower too, thanks to:
– EV subsidies & road tax exemptions (worth ~ Rs 3 lakh in many states)– Lower running costs at just Rs 1.1/km (home charging) compared to ~ Rs 8.9/km for petrol/diesel SUVs– Lower maintenance at Rs 0.4/km vs. Rs 0.8/km for ICE rivals
Over 5 years, the BE 6 offers an estimated Rs 12.63 lakh advantage and the XEV 9e up to Rs 13.47 lakh, making them more affordable long-term than ICE SUVs.
Why They Can Be Your Only Car
Whether it’s space, long-distance capability, daily convenience, or performance thrills, the Mahindra BE 6 and XEV 9e check every box. Backed by massive cost savings, modern tech, and environmental benefits, these SUVs prove that EVs are no longer just city commuters—they are ready to be the primary SUV in your household. More

Mahindra XEV 9eMahindra’s Electric Origin SUVs – the BE 6 and XEV 9e – have raced past a major milestone, with over 20,000 units sold in just five months. Together, these eSUVs have already clocked an impressive 9.3 crore kilometres on Indian roads, underscoring the rapid adoption of electric mobility in the SUV space.
This achievement reflects not just numbers, but a shift in consumer confidence. With their bold design, powerful performance, and 500+ km of real-world driving range, the BE 6 and XEV 9e are being embraced as primary SUVs by Indian families, not just as secondary city commuters.
9.3 crore kilometres on Indian roads
Changing Perceptions About EVs
Traditionally, EVs in India were considered suitable for short commutes but not trusted for long drives. The BE 6 and XEV 9e aim to change this perception. Built on Mahindra’s advanced INGLO platform, both SUVs combine long range, fast charging, and family-friendly practicality, giving buyers confidence to choose them as their main car.
The certified range extends up to 683 km, with real-world driving comfortably above 500 km. DC fast charging technology allows the battery to charge from 20% to 80% in just 20 minutes, making long highway journeys practical and stress-free.

Everyday Family Practicality
The INGLO platform’s flat-floor architecture and long wheelbase ensure spacious interiors, complemented by a large boot and frunk for added practicality. A 5-link independent rear suspension with frequency-selective dampers has been tuned for Indian roads, enhancing ride comfort for families on daily commutes and road trips alike.
Performance and Driving Dynamics
Mahindra hasn’t compromised on performance either. Delivering up to 282 bhp and 380 Nm torque, these eSUVs can sprint from 0–100 km/h in just 6.7 seconds, with a top speed of over 200 km/h. Rear-wheel-drive dynamics, uncommon in ICE SUVs in this segment, add to the engaging driving experience.
Tech and Value Proposition
The BE 6 and XEV 9e also stand out on technology and cost savings. Highlights include a triple-screen cockpit, a 16-speaker 1400W audio system, self-parking, and Level 2+ ADAS features. Lower running costs – Rs 1.1/km versus nearly Rs 9/km for petrol/diesel SUVs – and lower maintenance strengthen their value proposition.
Over five years, Mahindra estimates savings of Rs 12.63 lakh for BE 6 owners and Rs 13.47 lakh for XEV 9e owners compared to ICE SUVs. Buyers also benefit from state subsidies, tax deductions of up to Rs 1.5 lakh on EV loans, and road tax exemptions in several states.
Leading India’s EV SUV Shift
With 20,000 units already sold, Mahindra’s BE 6 and XEV 9e are proving that Indian buyers are ready to embrace EVs as their first car, not just a second one. Spacious, practical, powerful, and cost-effective, they are redefining the SUV landscape and marking a turning point for EV adoption in India. More

New Mahindra BE 6One of the important European markets for Mahindra EVs can be UK, which has a free trade agreement with India
Mahindra has seen phenomenal success with its new-gen electric cars – BE 6 and XEV 9e. Recently launched BE 6 Batman Edition was sold out in just 135 seconds, creating a new record. After the domestic success, Mahindra is now looking to introduce its EVs across European markets. Let’s check out the details.
Mahindra EV export plans for Europe
It is worth mentioning that Mahindra already has a global presence. Overseas markets covered include Australia, New Zealand, the Middle East, South Africa, Philippines, Sri Lanka and Nepal. The BE 6 and XEV 9e were recently launched in Nepal. European markets will be harder to penetrate, given the dominance of established European brands alongside rising Chinese competitors.
Mahindra XEV 9e
However, Mahindra has some advantages too such as the free trade agreement (FTA) with the United Kingdom. Also, the company already has a design studio in the UK. These factors will play a key role in helping Mahindra to launch its EVs in the UK and other European countries. A free trade agreement with Europe can further reduce complexities and costs. However, nothing has been finalized as yet.
It is reported that Mahindra has already set up a dedicated team to lead the Europe export project. However, exact details are not available. It is possible that specific variants of BE 6 and XEV 9e could be introduced in the UK. There could even be heavily tweaked versions or distinctive body styles, even though the INGLO platform will be retained.
Mahindra Vision SXT concept based on NU_IQ platform
Europe can see significant demand for EVs in the future, as nations aim to reduce emissions. The European Union has set the target of zero emissions by 2035, applicable for all new cars and vans. Similarly, the United Kingdom aims to have EVs contribute 80% of the overall car sales in the country. Chinese carmakers like BYD, MG Motor, Leapmotor and Haval are already attracting UK customers with advanced, yet competitively priced offerings. Something similar is possible with Mahindra’s new-gen electric cars.
More traction with NU_IQ SUVs
Mahindra’s SUVs built on the advanced NU_IQ platform could unlock even greater export potential. SUVs derived from this platform will target local as well as global C-segment SUV markets. A multi-energy platform, NU_IQ supports various powertrains including ICE, hybrid and electric. The company has already stated that NU_IQ meets the safety requirements of Euro NCAP, Australian NCAP and Bharat NCAP.
With the NU_IQ platform, Mahindra can access both ICE and EV segments in Europe. Starting point will be the UK, which currently seems the most viable option. Other European markets can be explored later. Regions like Eastern Europe present strong opportunities, owing to the large segment of price-sensitive consumers. Mahindra could introduce the necessary tweaks in styling and equipment list based on local preferences.
