Mahindra launches its first C-Segment Electric SUV
Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. announced the pricing for the fun and fast XUV400, its first electric SUV, unveiled on World EV Day in 2022.

Available in two variants – XUV400 EL powered by a 39.4 kWh battery and XUV400 EC powered by a 34.5 kWh battery, the eSUV will come in five exciting colour options – Arctic Blue, Everest White, Galaxy Grey, Napoli Black and Infinity Blue with dual tone option of Satin Copper.
