Mahindra XEV 9S Launch Details

Mahindra has officially announced that the Big New Electric XEV 9S will be launched at Scream Electric event on November 27, 2025 in Bengaluru, India. We expect that the sales of the new EV will only begin from January 2026. 

Estimated Price and Competition

The new XEV 9S will be a 7-seater electric SUV based on the INGLO born electric platform, which also underpins the Mahindra XEV 9e and BE 6 SUV Coupe’s. Set to be the flagship Mahindra EV, the new XEV 9S 7-seater SUV is likely to be priced around Rs 23 lakh to Rs 33 lakh, ex-showroom. The SUV has no direct rival in our market, but it could impact the sales of the Tata Harrier EV, BYD Atto 3 and the VinFast VF7. 

Powertrain and Range

The Mahindra XEV 9S is likely to source its battery options with the XEV 9e, which is available with a 59kWh and a 79kWh LFP battery pack. These two electric Coupe SUVs are available in a rear-wheel-drive or a single-motor RWD set-up. However, the XEV 9S is most likely to be offered with a dual-motor all-wheel drive (AWD) options. The lower-spec models will continue to be offered in a RWD form. 

The new electric SUV is likely to offer a realistic range of around 450-500kms in a single charge, which is similar to the XEV 9e and BE 6. The electric SUV will support fast charging, V2L and V2V functions. 

Key Details of Mahindra XEV 9S

The Mahindra XEV 9S will closely resemble the XUV700; however, it will have EV-specific design changes. The SUV will have a closed-off front grille, a full-width light bar, inverted L-shaped DRLs, new LED connected tail-lights, and an aero-optimised alloys.

The dashboard layout will be similar to the one offered with the XEV 9e. It will have a triple-screen dashboard with three 12.3-inch displays for infotainment, instrument cluster and passenger’s entertainment. The electric SUV will have a two-spoke steering wheel, AR-HUD, multi-zone climate control and a 16-speaker Harman Kardon sound system with Dolby Atmos.
