The XUV 3XO EV is anticipated to be positioned below the XUV400 in the brand’s portfolio, possibly providing a much more affordable entry point into their EV range.
A near-production XUV 3XO EV test mule was recently spotted undergoing road tests in Madurai, Tamil Nadu revealing several design, performance and feature specifications.
Mahindra XUV 3XO EVÂ Design
There were minimal changes spotted between the ICE and EV models, suggesting that the brand plans to retain most of the design language of the ICE XUV 3XO.
However, the biggest change noticeable was that the brand had reduced the EV size and brought the dimensions in line with the ICE XUV 3XO.
As seen in the spy shots, the Mahindra XUV 3XO EV was mostly not camouflaged except for the front fascia and the back.
As a result, the XUV 3XO EV is anticipated to feature a new upper and lower grille with revised air dams at the front, while it could get a modified tailgate and rear bumper at the back with minimal changes in the sides.
The XUV 3XO EV is anticipated to retain the rest of the design elements of the ICE 3XO model. However, it will incorporate a few unique design elements for the EV model.
