Mahindra Auto has just unveiled the new XUV3XO EV just a day after launching the XUV7XO mid-size SUV. Within the company’s portfolio, XUV3XO EV will be positioned as the entry-level electric car, below the Electric Origin SUVs like BE 6, XEV 9e and XEV 9S. As the name suggests, XUV3XO EV is the electric version of XUV3XO SUV, launched in 2024.
Where design and appearance are concerned, Mahindra XUV3XO EV looks almost identical to the XUV3XO ICE SUV, which is not a bad thing as XUV3XO sold 1.8 lakh units in just 21 months. It bears a dominating look and falls into the all-important 4m length bracket, unlike the XUV400 which was over 4m in length.
At the front, we can see a striking pair of headlights with LED projector headlights, LED fog lights, large 17-inch alloy wheels, body cladding, LED tail lights and others. Even the trim hierarchy stays similar to its ICE counterpart. Range starts with AX5 which is priced at Rs 13.89 lakh (Ex-sh) and the AX7L which is priced at Rs 14.96 lakh (Ex-sh).
