    New Electric Scooter Spied Testing – To Rival Chetak, Vida, iQube?

    by

    New Electric Scooter Spied from Jitendra EVThe new electric scooter spied has premium elements like LED lighting, stylish design, 12-inch alloy wheels and disc brakes at both ends
    With automotive market booming, more buyers are looking into electric vehicles today, than ever before. This effect is compounded in the electric scooter segment, where acceptance is high and the market trends project decent growth. Among the OEMs present in this segment, is Jitendra EV and is coming up with their flagship product, as suggested by spy shots.
    New Electric Scooter Spied
    A new set of spy shots emerged from the internet recently, showing what looks like a premium electric scooter on testing. At first glance, this test mule had fake pretend number plates in a green shade, establishing that it is an electric vehicle. Where design is concerned, this test mule looked like it came out of a Vespa’s factory.
    Jitendra EV New Scooter
    However, this new electric scooter spied testing recently, is not from Vespa. The logo in the front, gives away the fact that it is from Jitendra EV, one of India’s leading electric mobility solutions providers. The company currently offers two lineups or sub-brands – JMT (JMT 1000 HS 26, JMT 1000 3K, JMT 1000 HS) and Primo (Primo, Primo S, Primo Plus).
    Unlike the JMT and Primo lineups, the upcoming electric scooter from Jitendra EV looks a league apart. We would reckon that the company will position this unnamed electric scooter as it flagship offering when launched.
    Jitendra EV New Scooter
    This upcoming electric scooter from Jitendra EV looks very premium and set to take on other established rivals like Ather Rizta, TVS iQube, Ola S1, Hero Vida and Bajaj Chetak. Even in terms of componentry, the new electric scooter spied, is a league above than what Jitendra EV is currently offering.
    How does it look?
    As seen in the spy shots, we can see round ORVMs in chrome finish. Headlights are round as too and are LEDs and it also looks like it has integrated LED DRLs. The front apron has a spine-like element with Jitendra EV logo on it. This is flanked by LED turn indicators. Front mudguard is large and seems to be engulfing 12-inch alloy wheels.

    There seems to be a flat floorboard along with a swooping and curvaceous side profile. Grab rail is of retro-type complementing the overall aesthetics of this new electric scooter. Seat is single-piece with a slight step for pillion. There are strong character lines on side body panels and there is a very interesting LED tail light unit.
    Jitendra EV New Scooter
    Battery specs are still under wraps, but we can expect it to provide around 100+ km of range on a single charge. There is a hub motor at the rear wheel that also looks aesthetically pleasing. Other notable elements include front and rear disc brakes. The bike looks close to production and launch could happen soon. More details might be revealed in the future.

      2025 Kia EV2 Small SUV Spied – Smaller Than Upcoming Clavis/Syros ?

      by

      Kia EV2 Small SUV Spied. Image – Namcha CafeKia EV2 is likely to be the company’s smallest EV under 4 meter in length – To sit below the EV3 in company lineup
      After introducing the EV3 earlier this year across global markets, Kia has started testing the EV2. First spy shots have emerged, where Kia EV2 can be seen parked next to Volkswagen ID.3. One can get a fair estimate about the length and other dimensional aspects of Kia EV2.
      Kia EV2 – What to expect?
      As evident in the spy shots, Kia EV2 has a boxy profile. Some of the key features include vertically stacked lighting elements, a squarish bonnet design and a flat front fascia. This is similar to what we had seen in the test mule spied in India, which is rumoured to be the Clavis or Syros upon launch.
      Kia EV2 Small SUV Spied
      The charging port is located at the front, similar to the EV3. It hints at the possibility that Kia EV2 could be using a front wheel drive setup on the e-GMP platform. Overall design and styling will be similar to the brand’s flagship electric car, the EV9. Some of the features can also be derived from EV3.
      Side profile of the test vehicle reveals a sporty, dual-tone design of the alloy wheels. The electric crossover has dual-tone ORVMs with integrated turn signals. Other key highlights include a slightly tapering roof towards the rear, roof rails, blacked-out B pillar and conventional door handles. Kia EV2 has thick body cladding and prominent wheel arches. At the rear, edgy tail lamps and high-mounted stop lamps will ensure a distinctive profile for EV2.
      Kia AY (codename) – Upcoming Clavis / Syros for India
      Kia EV2 – Battery and Range
      In terms of its bodywork and chassis, the Kia EV2 could have the same configuration as that of Hyundai Inster. However, some recent reports indicate that the battery packs could be different for Kia EV2. Possibilities include the option of a 42-kWh battery pack with LFP chemistry and a 62 kWh NMC unit. In that case, the range of Kia EV2 will be 300 km and 439 km, respectively, as per the WLTP cycle.
      Similar to other electric cars from Kia, the EV2 will support fast charging. When using a public DC fast charger, users should be able to charge the battery pack from 10% to 80% in around 30 minutes. Equipped with powerful electric motors, Kia EV2 will be able to achieve fast acceleration. As a reference point, we can take the Kia EV3 that utilizes a 150 kW/283 Nm electric motor. EV3 can achieve 0 to 100 kmph in around 7.5 seconds.
      Kia EV2 could get advanced features such as vehicle-to-load (V2L) charging. This allows the vehicle to be used as a power bank. Users will be able to charge various devices such as laptops, coffee machines and small refrigerators, etc.
      Kia EV2 for India
      For the Indian market, Kia will not launch the EV2. We will instead get a different version which has already been spied on test. It is likely to be christened as the Kia Clavis or Syros SUV upon India launch next year. Both ICE and EV variants will be available for sale in India. More

      Hero Karizma 250 Design Leaks – Upgraded Components And Aerodynamics

      by

      Hero Karizma 250 Design LeaksAs seen in the design patents, Hero Karizma 250 will feature upgraded componentry and improved aerodynamics to rival Yamaha R15
      With the launch of Karizma XMR 210, Hero MotoCorp made a very bold statement. For the first time, Hero MotoCorp made a massive leap in engine technology, componentry and equipment. Now, there seems to be an even better version of it as suggested by leaked design patents of what looks like Hero Karizma 250.
      Hero Karizma 250 Design Leaks
      World’s leading motorcycle manufacturer, Hero MotoCorp, is systematically upping its game in the premium segment. We have seen a new line of Premia dealerships dedicated to premium vehicles. These showrooms should be populated with offerings to increase footfall and that’s exactly what Hero seems to be doing.
      The company has showcased a bunch of probable upcoming vehicles at 2023 EICMA Show. Among these vehicles, one of the most interesting was Hero 2.5R Xtunt Concept. There have been test mules spotted in India of what looks like an Xtreme 210R, bearing design ethos seen on 2.5R Xtunt Concept.
      However, new design leaks from Hero has confirmed that there will be a new version of Karizma fully-fired motorcycle and it will feature much better components and improved aerodynamic design. As seen in the leaked design, Some of the components look like they are taken from the Xtunt Concept.
      Hero Karizma 250 Design Leaks
      Fuel tank looks like it is a lot more aggressive and bears resemblance to the one seen on 2.5R Xtunt Concept. There seem to be slight changes to the fairing, but we now get aerodynamic winglets at the front, which might be functional in adding a few kg of downforce for added dynamic capability.
      Also improving handling characteristics is the addition of USD telescopic front forks, for the first time on Karizma. The bike’s main frame and subframe along with wheels, seats and ORVMs look similar to the ones seen on Karizma XMR 210 on sale in India. One could speculate that it will bear an engine displacing 250cc, developing close to 30 bhp and 25 Nm.
      Is it a Pro version of Karizma?
      Considering all the similarities the upcoming Hero Karizma 250 has with current model, one could also speculate that the leaked design is a Pro version of Karizma XMR 210 with better components. A strategy that Hero follows with Xpulse 200 4V and Xpulse 200 4V Pro.
      Hero Karizma XMR 210
      If this turns out to be true, we can expect Karizma to retain its 210cc DOHC 4V single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with 25.15 bhp and 20.4 Nm. The 6-speed gearbox, dual-channel ABS and other features will continue as is. Notable additions will be USD front forks and aerodynamic winglets. More

      2024 Bajaj Pulsar N125 Leaks Before Launch – First Undisguised Photos

      by

      New Bajaj Pulsar N125With its sporty profile and competitive pricing, Pulsar N125 can help acquire a larger market share in the 125cc motorcycle segment
      Bajaj Pulsar currently ranks second in the 125cc space, with a market share of more than 20%. On offer are Pulsar 125 and Pulsar NS125. To present something fresh in this space, Bajaj will soon launch the Pulsar N125. Ahead of launch tomorrow, first undisguised photos of the new Pulsar N125 have leaked online. Hat tip to automotive enthusiast Aditya Pandey for sharing these exclusive spy shots.
      Bajaj Pulsar N125 – Key features
      As there are already two 125cc Pulsar bikes, the upcoming Pulsar N125 will have to offer something special to get the attention of enthusiasts. Teasers reveal that the N125 is programmed to achieve that goal. Visually, Pulsar N125 has a striking presence, similar to other N series Pulsar bikes. A new purple colour was seen in the teasers, which appears quite enigmatic.
      New Bajaj Pulsar N125
      Some more attractive colour options could be made available with Pulsar N125. Colour options for existing Pulsar 125 and NS125 appear relatively subdued in comparison to the energetic purple shade seen with Pulsar N125. The bike also gets sporty graphics and decals that further enhance the overall look and feel. Another highlight is the 3D Pulsar logo on the fuel tank.
      A walkaround would reveal features such as sleek LED headlamp, sharp tank shrouds, sporty fuel tank design and polygonal rear-view mirrors. Pulsar N125 has an underbelly exhaust that ensures a smooth appearance for the side profile. The bike has a split seat design, short tail section, robust grab rails and rear tyre hugger. A slightly forward-leaning riding position is likely to resonate with the younger generation.
      New Bajaj Pulsar N125
      Pulsar N125 – Agile performance
      Based on the teasers, it is evident that Pulsar N125 will be the most agile and manoeuvrable 125 cc Pulsar bike. It is designed to dominate the chaotic urban streets, often seen with heavy traffic. Terms like ‘daring’ used in the teasers clearly reveal the promise of entirely new experiences with a smaller-capacity Pulsar bike. Power will be supplied via a 125 cc, air cooled, single cylinder engine that generates 11.8 PS and 10.8 Nm. Users will have access to a 5-speed gearbox.
      New Bajaj Pulsar N125
      In comparison, rival TVS Raider has a 124.8 cc air & oil cooled, single cylinder engine that delivers 11.38 PS and 11.2 Nm. The engine is paired with a 5-speed gearbox. Hero Xtreme 125R has a 124.7 cc engine, producing 11.4 PS and 10.5 Nm. It is offered with a 5-speed transmission.
      Bajaj Pulsar N125 – New colour
      Pulsar N125 Pricing – Diwali offers likely
      Several of the Pulsar bikes are currently available with festive offers. In the 125cc segment, Pulsar 125 and NS125 are available with savings of up to Rs 8,000. It is possible that Bajaj could introduce a limited period special pricing for Pulsar N125. Ex-showroom price of Pulsar N125 is expected to be around Rs 95,000. However, users should be able to save more in case there are special offers. The most affordable is Pulsar 125, starting at Rs 92,883. Pulsar NS125 is available at a starting price of Rs 1,01,050.

      Mahindra XUV Coupe Spied Up Close – White Interiors, 19 Inch Wheels

      by

      Mahindra XUV Coupe SpiedMahindra’s upcoming born-electric SUVs could provide a significant boost to the EV segment, which is currently progressing at a relatively slow pace
      Since the concepts were unveiled, enthusiasts have been eagerly awaiting the launch of Mahindra’s all-new BE and XUV.e electric SUV range. The wait will soon be over, as evident with the intensified road tests and recent TVC shoots.
      XUV.e9 Coupe spied in detail
      While the BE.05 and XUV.e8 have also been spotted frequently on road tests, the latest spy shots are of XUV.e9 Coupe. Latest spy shots are credited to automotive enthusiast Vaisakh Shaji.
      Mahindra XUV Coupe Spied
      A full 360° view of the test vehicle reveals that the production model is quite the same as the concept version. XUV.e9 is the coupe version of XUV.e8, which in turn is the electric version of XUV700. While the sloping coupe roofline is a major attraction, the SUV’s huge size ensures a powerful road presence.
      In its concept form, the XUV.e9 Coupe was 4,790 mm long, 1,905 mm wide, 1,690 mm tall and had a wheelbase of 2,775 mm. Spy shots reveal that there are unlikely to be any major differences in the dimensions of production-spec XUV.e9. Talking about exterior features, one can see a new triangular headlamp cluster design. This is the same as seen with the XUV.e8. Inside the headlamp housing, there are cube-shaped lighting elements and copper-coloured highlighters.
      Mahindra XUV Coupe Spied
      XUV.e9 Coupe has a multi-layered bonnet, with a tapering front section. This is aesthetically pleasing and can also improve the driver’s road view. Mahindra’s new infinity logo is mounted on the bonnet. The massive closed-off grille enhances the SUV’s powerful presence, whereas the bumper trim in copper finish highlights its electric underpinnings.
      Mahindra XUV Coupe Spied
      Mahindra XUV Coupe R19 wheels
      Mahindra XUV.e9 can be seen with 19-inch wheels wrapped in 245/55 tyres. The low-drag, aerodynamic design appears to be the same as seen with the concept. Other highlights of the side profile include pop-out flush door handles at the front and C-pillar mounted rear door handles. The window line will be getting a copper garnish, contrasting the blacked-out pillars, fenders, thick body cladding and door side moulding.
      Mahindra XUV Coupe Spied – White Seats
      At the rear, XUV.e9 has connected LED tail lights. The test vehicle can be seen with the charging port installed at the rear, just next to the left tail lamp. A battery level indicator can also be seen above the charging port. A chunky tailgate complements the SUV’s powerful road presence.
      Mahindra XUV Coupe Spied – Steering Wheel
      Mahindra XUV.e9 interiors
      One of the key features of XUV.e9 is its triple-screen layout. Covering almost the entire width of the dashboard, the triple-screen layout ensures a futuristic and immersive display experience. With consumer preferences hugely in favour of hi-tech gadgetry, the 3-screen layout could become more common in the coming years.
      Mahindra XUV Coupe Spied – Digital display
      XUV.e9 Coupe is seen with white interiors. The seats, door panels, pillars, roof are all in white. The cabin will be equipped with a comprehensive range of premium and advanced tech features. Safety will be enhanced with a wide-ranging ADAS suite in addition to multiple airbags, ABS, etc.
      Mahindra XUV Coupe Spied – White Seats
      In terms of performance, XUV.e9 variants can get battery packs in the range of 60 kWh to 80 kWh. Both RWD and AWD options could be available. Range is expected to be around 500 km. XUV.e9 will support 175kW DC fast charging, allowing battery level to reach up to 80% in around 30 minutes. More

      Royal Enfield Bear 650 Scrambler Spied – Yellow and White Dual Tone Colour

      by

      Royal Enfield Bear 650 ScramblerUpcoming Royal Enfield Interceptor Bear 650 Scram will have multiple distinctive features in comparison to RE’s existing 650cc bikes
      Royal Enfield is working on several new bikes across the 350cc, 450cc and 650cc segments. In the 650cc space, one of the most anticipated motorcycle launches is a new scrambler model. It will go on sale as the Interceptor Bear 650. The name was registered last year in 2023.
      Royal Enfield Interceptor Bear 650 Scram – Styling and features
      Test mules have been spotted frequently in recent months, indicating that the bike will be launched soon. Now, a fully undisguised, production-ready version has leaked online – donning dual tone paint scheme of yellow and white with black stripes on the fuel tank and blue coloured seat.
      Royal Enfield Bear 650 Scrambler
      A quick glance reveals that the new scrambler bike has the DNA of Interceptor 650. Some of the borrowed equipment includes the fuel tank and the tubular steel chassis. However, as the Interceptor Bear 650 will have relatively better off-roading capabilities, it gets a more robust suspension setup.
      One of the key differences is longer suspension travel, as compared to other 650cc bikes from Royal Enfield. Interceptor Bear 650 gets USD forks at front and dual rear shock absorbers. In comparison, the existing Interceptor 650 has telescopic front forks. The dual rear shock absorbers seem common, but the Bear 650 has a new spring/damper unit. It does not get the gas reservoirs in use with existing Interceptor 650.
      Royal Enfield Scrambler 650 Interceptor Bear Spied
      Interceptor Bear 650 is likely to be offered with 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wheels. These are shod with knobby profiled dual-purpose tubeless tyres. With a new suspension setup and tyres, it appears that Interceptor Bear 650 will have better off-roading capabilities. It should be able to handle mild off-road tracks with ease.
      New equipment
      Talking about some of the unique aspects of Interceptor Bear 650, the bike has a two-into-one exhaust setup. The perforated heat shield is functionally relevant and also enhances the bike’s rugged character. The merged exhaust setup is a first for a Royal Enfield bike. It will ensure an agile performance across both urban roads and off-road tracks. With the new exhaust, the bike will be lighter, which in turn will increase its power to weight ratio.
      Another feature that adds more dynamism is the oval, race-style number boards. Other key highlights of Interceptor Bear 650 include circular headlamp, all-LED lighting, circular rear-view mirrors, braced handlebar, tear-drop shaped fuel tank, new mudguards and an upswept exhaust. Overall, Royal Enfield Interceptor Bear 650 looks attractive with its minimalistic, neo-retro aesthetics. Tech kit will include a circular TFT instrument screen. Something similar to that of Himalayan 450 and Guerrilla 450. With the Royal Enfield app, users will be able to access various connected features including full map navigation.
      Royal Enfield Interceptor Bear 650 – Performance
      Engine will be the same as other 650cc Royal Enfield bikes. The 648cc, inline twin cylinder, 4-stroke, SOHC unit churns out 47 PS and 52.3 Nm. It is offered with a 6-speed gearbox. Overall ride dynamics could be relatively better, owing to the bike’s lightweight profile and distinct ergonomics. Debut is likely to take place at the EICMA 2024 next month.

      Bajaj Pulsar N125 – What to expect?
      Upcoming Bajaj Pulsar N125 has been spotted on road tests multiple times in recent months. It is possible that this is the same bike that Bajaj will launch on 16th October. Bajaj already offers the Pulsar 125 and Pulsar NS125. With more options, Bajaj can expand its presence in the 125cc segment that has been registering strong growth. Upon launch, the Pulsar N125 will primarily rival the likes of Hero Xtreme 125R and TVS Raider 125.
      New Bajaj Pulsar N125
      Similar to other Pulsar N series bikes, the Pulsar N125 will have sharp styling. Some exciting colour options and sporty graphics will be available with the bike. Spy shots have revealed a new LED headlamp, sculpted fuel tank, sleek tank shrouds and polygonal rear-view mirrors. Side section has a decluttered look and feel with the bike getting an underbelly exhaust.
      Other highlights include a split seat design, robust grab rail, short tail section and rear tyre hugger. Riding stance is quite comfortable with wide, pulled-back handlebar and centrally mounted foot pegs. The pillion seat appears to be a bit narrow, but should be fine for urban commutes.
      New Bajaj Pulsar N125
      Tech package
      Tech kit onboard the Pulsar N125 will include an all-digital instrument console. It could be the same or something similar to the new units seen onboard the updated Pulsar bikes. Riders will be able to access a range of information such as real-time fuel economy, average fuel economy, gear position indicator and distance-to-empty readout. The digital console is likely to get support for Bluetooth connectivity.
      New Bajaj Pulsar N125
      Various possibilities exist such as accessing mobile notifications on the digital console. With Bajaj Ride Connect app, users will be able to take calls, SMS and see missed call notifications. It remains to be seen if turn-by-turn navigation is part of the package with Pulsar N125. With the Bajaj Connect app, users can also access riding tips and owner’s manual.
      Bajaj Pulsar N125 performance, specs
      Powering the bike will be the 125cc, single cylinder, air cooled engine that can be seen with other 125cc bikes from Bajaj. Onboard the Pulsar 125, the engine delivers 11.8 PS and 10.8 Nm of torque. It is mated to a 5-speed constant mesh gearbox.
      Suspension setup of Pulsar N125 will comprise standard telescopic forks at front and a monoshock unit at the rear. Both ends have 17-inch wheels, with front disc and rear drum combo for the base variant. Top-spec variant of the Bajaj Pulsar N125 is expected to get disc brakes at both ends with single-channel ABS.
      Upcoming Bajaj Pulsar N125 could be offered at a starting price of around Rs 95,000. In comparison, the Pulsar 125 is available at a starting price of Rs 92,883. Pulsar NS125 is costlier, available at Rs 1,01,050. More

      Upcoming Kia EV4 Electric Interiors Spied – Floating Widescreen

      by

      Upcoming Kia EV4 ElectricWith its distinctive design, the Kia EV4 is a great option for those looking to experience something truly new
      Kia has started testing the EV4, a crossover sedan with SUV flavours and a sloping coupe roofline as well. EV4 is expected to be launched in 2025. Ahead of that, latest spy shots have revealed the interiors of Kia EV4.
      Kia EV4 cockpit revealed
      While test vehicles have been spotted earlier also, this is the first time the interiors of Kia EV4 have been revealed. A number of features appear to be borrowed from Kia EV3 that was introduced earlier this year in June.
      Upcoming Kia EV4 Electric
      One of the key attractions is the large widescreen panel. It has dual 12.3-inch screens for the touchscreen and the driver instrument display. In between, there’s a 5.3-inch climate control display. The widescreen covers more than half of the dashboard’s length.
      Below the floating widescreen, there’s a control panel with touch-sensitive buttons. These can be used to access the primary shortcuts such as Home, Media and Map. For practical convenience, EV4 has a conventional circular dial for the volume control. The AC vents are mounted on either side. With only a few physical buttons, the interiors look neat and decluttered. Similar to the EV3, the EV4 is expected to get a multi-layered dashboard.
      Upcoming Kia EV4 Electric
      Several of the tech features seen with EV3 could be introduced in EV4. For example, Kia EV4 could get the ChatGPT-powered AI digital assistant that is designed to improve overall user experience. Based on generative AI, the digital assistant can process various voice commands and act accordingly. It can provide travel related information, make music recommendations and control vehicle functions. With generative AI like ChatGPT, the possibilities are limitless. Kia EV4 will also be getting the regular tech features such as wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
      Upcoming Kia EV4 Electric
      Kia EV4 specs, performance
      Similar to Kia EV3, EV6, EV9 and various Hyundai and Genesis cars, the Kia EV4 also utilizes the Hyundai Motor Group E-GMP electric platform. Among these, only the EV3 has a 400-volt electrical system. Other cars utilize an 800-volt electrical system that is more advanced and capable of enabling faster charging. There are other benefits as well such as improved efficiency and performance.
      It will be interesting to see if Kia EV4 gets the 400-volt or 800-volt electrical system. Assuming that Kia will be aiming to introduce the EV4 at an attractive price point, the 400-volt electrical system will be more suitable. Battery pack options for Kia EV4 include a 58.3 kWh and an 81.4 kWh unit. Base variants will have a single motor setup, generating 201 hp. Higher variants could get AWD option, enabled with a dual-motor setup.
      While this test vehicle has the sedan body style, Kia EV4 is also expected to get another variant with an upright hatchback rear format. This was evidenced with another test vehicle spotted earlier. Upon launch, Kia EV4 will rival Tesla Model 3.

      by

      2025 Mahindra XUV700 EV VersionExpected to arrive in 2025, XUV700 EV version will primarily challenge upcoming Tata Harrier EV and Safari EV
      Like many other carmakers, Mahindra is expecting a sizable increase in EV sales in the coming years. To stay ahead in the race, Mahindra will be introducing its born-electric SUV range next year. The first of these will be XUV700 EV version.
      Mahindra XUV700 EV version – What to expect?
      Mahindra XUV700 EV test vehicles have been spotted frequently in recent months. Latest spy shots are credited to automotive enthusiast Aniket Kashyap, who managed to click these test mules in Ladakh. While wrapped in full camouflage, it is easy to see that much of the exterior profile is the same as the ICE model.
      2025 Mahindra XUV700 EV Version
      However, XUV700 EV version will have a new front fascia. It will include a closed-off grille, new lighting elements and refreshed bumper section. Side profile of XUV700 EV closely mirrors the ICE model. Some of the key highlights include flush door handles, circular wheel arches, chrome window garnish and slightly tapering rear roof section. XUV700 EV will offer more refined aesthetics with its aerodynamic, low-drag alloy wheels.
      The charging port for XUV700 EV is installed on the left, the same position where the ICE variant has the fuel filler. At the rear, the overall profile will be largely the same as the ICE model. There could be some tweaks to the tailgate and bumper. XUV700 EV will feature unique badging elements that highlight its electric underpinnings.
      2025 Mahindra XUV700 EV Version
      Digital cockpit experience
      While the exteriors seem quite familiar, the interiors of XUV700 EV will offer a more premium experience and multiple new features. One of the test vehicles was recently spotted with a triple-screen layout that covers almost the entire length of the dashboard. Such premium features will be available with the top variants of XUV700 EV. Mahindra will focus on reducing clutter and enhancing the digital cockpit experience.
      2025 Mahindra XUV700 EV Version
      XUV700 EV will have advanced tech features such as 5G network capability and 5 Radars-1 Vision technology. The SUV is designed to support future upgrades such as L2+ autonomous driving and ADAS. A comprehensive range of connected features will be available with XUV700 EV.
      XUV700 EV battery, range, performance
      Mahindra’s born-electric INGLO platform that underpins XUV700 EV can support battery packs of up to 80 kWh capacity. In that case, XUV700 EV could have a range of around 500 km. Earlier spy shots had revealed a rear motor, indicating that the SUV will have a dual-motor AWD option. With fast charging of up to 175 kWh, users will be able to achieve up to 80% charging in just 30 minutes.
      In the electric segment, Mahindra currently offers only the XUV400. Sales are relatively low, when compared to Mahindra’s hugely popular ICE SUVs. Nonetheless, even with just a single EV model in its portfolio, Mahindra is already ranked third in the list of best selling EV brands in the country.

Mahindra is also planning to foray in the petrol hybrid segment. More
