Talking about Mahindra’s future plan, the company has confirmed the XUV400 electric SUV launch for January 2023. The model will be made available across 16 cities in the first phase. Powertrain setup of the new Mahindra XUV400 features a 39.5kWH battery pack offering power worth 148bhp and 310Nm of torque.

It’s capable to do 0 to 100kmph in 8.6 seconds and offer a top speed of 150kmph.
Prior to XUV400, the Mahindra XUV300 and Bolero Neo SUVs will be introduced with the brand’s new Twin Peaks logo. The updated models have already started arriving at dealerships. Design, interior and features of the SUVs will remain unchanged. The XUV300 comes with the 1.2L turbo petrol and 1.5L diesel engines delivering 110bhp with 200Nm and 117bhp with 300Nm respectively.
