Mahindra XEV 9S Electric SUV: Top 5 Unique Highlights - Battery, Price, Range, Features
Mahindra XEV 9S electric SUV gets a new electric three-row platform. Here are its top highlights such as XEV 9S range, price and more
Mahindra has introduced the XEV 9S, a ground-up electric three-row SUV built on the company’s INGLO platform. Positioned as a large EV for families and long-distance users, the model brings several notable updates to Mahindra’s electric portfolio. Here are five key highlights:
1. Electric-Origin Platform With a Proper Three-Row Layout
Unlike EVs adapted from internal-combustion platforms, the XEV 9S has been developed as a dedicated electric model. This allows more efficient packaging, resulting in one of the segment’s largest cabins. Mahindra claims 4,076 litres of combined space across the first two rows, along with a 150-litre frunk and up to 527 litres of boot capacity. The third row gets a 50:50 split, while the second row slides and reclines to adapt to passenger or luggage needs.

The SUV also includes a driver monitoring system for fatigue alerts and Mahindra’s Secure360 Pro, which provides a live vehicle view along with recording capability, adding an extra security layer.
