On the occasion of India’s 74th Republic day, Mahindra has started accepting bookings for the XUV400 electric SUV at authorised dealerships and online for a token amount of Rs 21,000. The EV is now also available for test drives.
For those who aren’t aware, the Mahindra XUV400 comes in two variants: EC and EL, with prices ranging from Rs 15.99 lakh and Rs 18.99 lakh (ex-showroom). However, it is worth noting that these are introductory prices, limited to just 5,000 units of each variant.

Save for some minor cosmetic differences and a length of about 4.2 meters, Mahindra XUV400 looks largely similar to the XUV300, such as closed-off fascia, redesigned taillamp and contrasting copper-coloured elements to denote its electric nature.
