New Mahindra XUV 3XO EV launched at Rs 13.89 lakh

Your next city car could be electric, stylish, and still fit your family budget – this is what the new Mahindra XUV 3XO EV is trying to offer you.​

New XUV 3XO EV price and variants

Mahindra has launched the new Mahindra XUV 3XO EV in India at a starting price of Rs 13.89 lakh (ex-showroom). This makes it one of the most affordable Mahindra electric SUVs you can buy today.​

• The XUV 3XO EV comes in two main variants: AX5 and AX7L.​
• AX5 is priced at Rs 13.89 lakh, while the higher AX7L variant costs Rs 14.96 lakh (ex-showroom).​
• You can also add a 7.2 kW home charger for an extra Rs 50,000 if you want faster home charging.​

Deliveries for the Mahindra XUV 3XO EV are planned to start from 23 February 2026, so you will not have to wait too long if you book now.​​

Battery, range and performance

The Mahindra XUV 3XO EV uses a 39.4 kWh battery pack with a single electric motor. This setup sends power to the front wheels and is designed mainly for smooth city and short highway use.​​

• The motor makes about 147–150 bhp of power and 310 Nm of torque, which means quick pick-up when you press the accelerator.​
• The real-world driving range is claimed at around 285 km on a full charge, which is enough for daily office runs, school drops and weekend shopping trips.​​
• With a 50 kW DC fast charger, the battery can be charged from 0 to 80% in about 50 minutes, so you can top up during a coffee break on a highway stop.​

If you install the 7.2 kW AC charger at home, you can leave the car plugged in overnight and wake up every morning with a full battery. For most families, this means almost no visits to petrol pumps anymore.​

Design, features and comfort

On the outside, the Mahindra XUV 3XO EV looks very close to the normal XUV 3XO but with some EV-style touches. This helps you get a modern look without making the design too funky or strange for older family members.​​

• It gets special rose-gold design inserts on the grille, new 17‑inch diamond-cut alloy wheels, EV badging, and an extra charging flap on the front fender.​
• The red colour option also has sporty red accents on the lower air dam for a more eye-catching road presence.​
• Inside, the XUV 3XO EV borrows the cabin layout and features from the ICE XUV 3XO, including a modern touchscreen, digital cluster and premium-feel interiors in the top variants.​​

Higher variants also offer advanced safety tech like Level 2 ADAS (driver assist), which can help with features such as lane keeping and adaptive cruise on some roads. This can make long drives safer and less tiring for you and your family.​​

How the Mahindra XUV 3XO EV fits your daily life

If you drive mostly in the city and do 30–60 km per day, the Mahindra XUV 3XO EV can easily handle your routine without range stress. You can charge at home or office and avoid rising fuel prices every month.​​

• For small families, the compact SUV size makes it easy to park in tight city spaces while still giving good ground clearance for bad roads and speed breakers.​
• If you already like the normal Mahindra XUV 3XO, this EV version lets you enjoy similar space and features but with quieter, cleaner electric power.​
• Government incentives and lower running costs per km can make the total cost of owning the XUV 3XO EV cheaper than many petrol SUVs over a few years.​

This car is especially useful for you if you care about clean air, want lower running costs, and still need a family-friendly Indian SUV.​
