The shift to electric vehicles excites me because it combines eco-friendliness with driving thrill, and Mahindra's new XUV 3XO EV hits that sweet spot perfectly. Launched on January 6, 2026, the AX5 variant starts at Rs 13.89 lakh while the top AX7L is Rs 14.96 lakh ex-showroom. Powered by a 39.4kWh battery, it claims 285km range with a punchy 150bhp motor delivering 310Nm torque instantly—something EV fans like me love.
Three modes called Fun, Fast, and Fearless let you tailor the experience to your mood. Features abound: LED lighting, single or panoramic sunroof options, Adrenox system with built-in Alexa, twin 10.25-inch screens on higher trims, and frequency-dependent damping for comfortable rides. Stylish 17-inch alloys and infinity LED taillights add flair.
Bookings are open immediately, with deliveries from February 23—a great timeline for those ready to go green. In my view, this positions Mahindra competitively against rivals by offering affordability, tech, and performance in one package. Having experienced instant torque in other EVs, I can say it's addictive, and here it's paired with practical range for daily use. A solid step forward for sustainable mobility in India!
