Recent leaked images have revealed the production-spec model of Mahindra’s upcoming electric SUV: the XEV 7e or XUV.e8. These images appear to be a screen grab from a promo video of the upcoming eSUV.
The XEV 7e, previously known as the XUV.e8 in its concept form, features a striking design with triangular headlamp housing and full-width lighting. The front fascia closely resembles the recently launched XEV 9e, with inverted L-shaped LED daytime running lights and a closed-off grille. The side profile showcases aerodynamically designed alloy wheels to reduce drag and improve efficiency.
The interior of the XEV 7e boasts a dual-tone black and white theme, with white leatherette seat upholstery. It includes a triple-screen setup with 12.3-inch digital displays for the driver’s display, infotainment system, and front passenger-side screen. Other features include multi-zone climate control, a panoramic sunroof, ventilated seats, and a premium audio system.
The XEV 7e shares many design elements with the XUV 700, including the window lines and LED tail lights. However, it features EV-specific changes such as the aerodynamic alloy wheels and a robust bumper section.
The new electric SUV is expected to offer two battery options, including a 59 kWh and 79 kWh battery pack, providing a claimed range of around 650 km. The eSUV will also feature advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and up to 7 airbags for enhanced safety.
Mahindra has not yet disclosed the official launch timeline or pricing details, but the XEV 7e is anticipated to be priced around INR 21 lakh (ex-showroom). The launch is expected to take place later this year, and the SUVs will primarily rival the Tata Safari EV.
The leaked images of Mahindra’s XEV 7e have certainly piqued interest in the electric SUV segment. With their advanced features and competitive range, these models are poised to make a strong impact in the market. We eagerly await the official launch and detailed specifications.
