Under the skin, the XUV 3XO EV borrows heavily from the now-discontinued XUV400. It uses the same 39.4kWh battery pack paired with a front-mounted electric motor producing 150PS and 310Nm of torque. Mahindra claims a real-world driving range of around 285km on a single charge.

2026 Mahindra XUV 3XO EV Design And Features

In terms of design, the XUV 3XO EV stays very close to its ICE-powered sibling. The overall shape, body panels, lighting elements and alloy wheels are largely unchanged. Subtle EV-specific touches include copper-coloured accents on the exterior and a body-coloured grille that helps distinguish it from the petrol and diesel versions. These restrained changes suggest Mahindra are focusing on familiarity rather than radical differentiation.

The interior layout is also carried over from the ICE XUV 3XO, with the EV getting bronze or copper highlights in place of the usual silver trim. The cabin features twin 10.25-inch screens – one for infotainment and the other for the digital instrument cluster. The dashboard design, steering wheel layout and general ergonomics remain familiar, which should help existing Mahindra owners feel right at home.

Feature-wise, the XUV 3XO EV is well-equipped, especially in the higher AX7L trim. Standard features include 

  • Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
  • Dual-zone climate control
  • Wireless phone charging
  • Auto headlamps and wipers
  • Cruise control
  • Electronic parking brake with auto hold

The top variant further adds:

  • Panoramic sunroof
  • Leatherette upholstery
  • 7-speaker Harman Kardon audio system
  • 17-inch alloy wheels 
  • Full ADAS suite.

Safety is another strong point. The electric SUV comes with 6 airbags as standard, along with ESP, a 360-degree camera, front and rear parking sensors, tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) and ADAS. Given that the ICE XUV 3XO has already secured a 5-star Bharat NCAP rating, expectations are high for the EV version to deliver similar crash safety credentials.

2026 Mahindra XUV 3XO EV Rivals

With pricing starting at Rs. 13.89 lakh, the Mahindra XUV 3XO EV takes on the Tata Nexon EV, which offers multiple battery options and a longer claimed range, while also acting as an alternative to models like the MG Windsor, Tata Punch EV and Citroen eC3. For buyers looking for a familiar SUV form factor with strong performance, modern features and Mahindra’s growing EV ecosystem, the XUV 3XO EV presents itself as a compelling new option.
