Powertrain and Performance Details
The Mahindra XUV 3XO EV is powered by a 39.4 kWh battery pack paired with an electric motor producing 147.5 hp and 310 Nm of torque. According to Mahindra, this setup allows the SUV to accelerate from 0 to 100 kmph in 8.3 seconds, positioning it among the quicker offerings in its class.
Real-world driving range is estimated at around 285 km per charge, making it suitable for daily urban usage and moderate inter-city travel. The EV also offers three selectable drive modes—Fun, Fast and Fearless—which adjust throttle response and power delivery based on driving preference.
Fast-charging support is included, with the battery capable of charging from 0 to 80 percent in approximately 50 minutes using a 50 kW DC fast charger.

The electric SUV is available in two trims: AX5 and AX7L. Prices start at Rs 13.89 lakh (ex-showroom), with the higher AX7L variant costing Rs 97,000 more than the base trim.
Design-wise, the Mahindra XUV 3XO EV closely mirrors its internal combustion counterpart. It features LED projector headlamps, signature daytime running lights with integrated indicators, a connected tail-lamp design, roof rails and a rear spoiler. Buyers can choose from six exterior colours, including Stealth Black, Everest White, Tango Red and Deep Forest.
