1 / 2
Jaisalmer's desert winds carried more than sand on January 6, 2026 - they brought Mahindra & Mahindra's latest electric gambit. The automaker electrified India's compact SUV segment with its new XUV 3XO EV, starting at an accessible â¹13.89 lakh (ex-showroom). This strategic move combines competitive pricing with premium features, signaling Mahindra's serious play for electric dominance.

The XUV 3XO EV doesn't just transition from fuel to electrons - it reimagines what affordable electric performance means. Its acceleration figures would make some sports coupes blush, while the tight turning radius promises to dance through city traffic.

- 7-Speaker Harman Kardon audio with Dolby Atmos
- 360-degree surround view system with blind spot monitoring
- Dual Zone AC and panoramic sunroof

Mahindra's interior strategy focuses on democratizing premium tech. The Harman Kardon system marks a first in this segment, while the Alexa integration brings voice-controlled convenience to mass-market EV buyers.
Safety as Standard
- Level 2 ADAS with Lane Keep Assist and Smart Pilot Assist

As the world's largest tractor manufacturer ventures deeper into electrification, the XUV 3XO EV serves notice: the company intends to lead India's electric transition without compromising on the tech or performance that modern drivers demand.
