Last year, Mahindra unveiled its future EV plans, with one model, in particular, capturing a lot of attention—the Mahindra XUV 700 EV officially called Mahindra XUV e8 by the company. This electric SUV is anticipated to revolutionize the market much like the XUV700 did.
Recently its prototype was spotted undergoing testing, further increasing excitement about its launch.
In this article, we’ll dive into the details surrounding the Mahindra XUV.e8 electric, covering its design, specifications, features, expected price, and launch in India.
The design of the Mahindra XUV700 electric closely mirrors that of its ICE sibling, the XUV700. From the side profile, the similarities are striking, with the most noticeable difference being the unique alloy wheel design specific to the EV version.
The front end features a prominent DRL design along the bonnet, forming an inverted L-shape, giving it a distinctive look. At the rear, a connected taillight design adds to the futuristic appeal.
However, it’s essential to note that the prototype’s design might change before the final production version is launched, as stated by Mahindra.
