The XUV.e9 is a pure-electric version of the XUV700 with a stylish coupe design.

You may have seen spy images of the Mahindra XUV.e9 before, but this time, the prototype was seen sporting its pre-production bodywork.

The XUV.e9 is a pure-electric version of the XUV700 with a stylish coupe design. The electric SUV features a blanked-out front grille with a full-width LED light bar and vertically stacked headlamps. At the rear, it has a unique LED tail lamp setup connected by an LED light bar that follows the vehicle's contours. The latest test mule is also equipped with a new set of aero-optimized alloy wheels.

Inside, the XUV.e9 will get a futuristic-looking dashboard with three 12.3-inch displays and a 2-spoke flat-bottom steering wheel. The SUV is also expected to get features like a head-up display with augmented navigation, Level 2 ADAS and a vehicle-to-load function.

Mahindra might offer the XUV.e9 with an 80 kWh battery pack, powering a dual-motor setup. Peak output could be in the range of 227 BHP to 345 BHP. The battery could offer up to 450 km of range.
