Prices For The XUV400 Are Out!
Mahindra will open the bookings counter on January 26, 2023.
It was in September 2022 when Mahindra took the wraps off the XUV400 in production guise. Along with releasing almost all the relevant information, the Indian automaker confirmed that the launch will happen in January 2023. Sticking with its original plan, Mahindra has announced the prices of the XUV400. The EV is available in two primary variants – EC and EL. And here’s what the price list looks like:
• XUV400 EC (with 3.3 kW charger): INR 15.99 Lakh
• XUV400 EC (with 7.2 kW charger): INR 16.49 Lakh
• XUV400 EL (with 7.2 kW charger): INR 18.99 Lakh
The prices are introductory in nature and applicable for the first 5,000 bookings. The XUV400 boasts a front-mounted electric motor that produces 150hp/310Nm. Mahindra claims a 0-100kmph sprint time of 8.3 seconds – the quickest in the segment. The top speed is 160kmph. The EC derivatives come with a 34.5kWh lithium-ion battery and promise a range of up to 375km (MIDC). The sole EL variant, on the other hand, packs a 39.4kWh battery, which offers a range of up to 456km.
The Mahindra XUV400 supports charging via AC and DC feeds. When plugged into a 50 kW DC charger, the EV can replenish its larger battery from 10 to 80 per cent in about 50 minutes. The wait times from zero to 100 per cent charge are 6 hours and 30 minutes with a 7.2 kW AC charger and approximately 13 hours when using a 3.3 kW AC feed.
Features? By default, the list includes LED taillamps, all four disc brakes, single-pedal drive mode, ISOFIX anchorages for child booster seats, wheel arch cladding and power-adjustable ORVMs. The range-topping version ropes in a 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, 60+ connected-car features, 16-inch alloy wheels, an electric sunroof, auto headlamps and wipers, six airbags, height-adjustable driver’s seat and a rear-view camera with adaptive guidelines.
The Mahindra XUV400 is available in five colours – Arctic Blue, Everest White, Galaxy Grey, Napoli Black and Infinity Blue with a dual-tone option of Satin Copper. The standard warranty is 3 years/unlimited km, while the battery and the motor are covered for 8 years/1,60,000km.
Bookings for the XUV400 will open on January 26, 2023. Mahindra aims to deliver 20,000 units of the e-SUV within a year of its launch. The deliveries for the EL variant will commence in March 2023, while those of the EC derivatives during the Diwali festive season this year. Those interested can book a test drive, with the EV launching in 34 cities in phase 1.
So, the question is, what would you drive home – the Mahindra XUV400 or the Tata Nexon EV?
