Mahindra revealed its first fully electric SUV, the XUV400, in September this year. Based on the XUV300 ICE, the XUV400 will serve as a direct competitor to the Tata Nexon EV - India's best-selling electric car. While the manufacturer had revealed all specifications of the e-SUV, the one thing that is yet to be ascertained is the price.
We already know that the
Mahindra XUV400 will come equipped with a 39.4 kWh battery pack that returns a claimed range of 456 km on a single full charge.
Moreover, this battery pack can be charged from 0% to 80% in 50 minutes through a DC fast charger. It will make use of a permanent magnet synchronous motor that belts out 150 PS (110 kW) of power and 310 Nm of peak torque. This powertrain will help the electric SUV sprint from 0 to 100 kmph in just 8.3 seconds.
