Mahindra has begun public road testing of the upcoming <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/mahindra/be07/">BE.07</a> electric SUV in India, and recent spy shots confirm that the model is moving closer to production. The camouflaged test mule spotted on Indian roads signals that development of the brand’s Born Electric line-up is progressing steadily. The BE.07 becomes the fourth model from this EV family to be seen in testing after the BE 6, <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/mahindra/xev-9/">XEV 9e </a>and <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/mahindra/xev-9s/">XEV 9S</a>.

The Mahindra XEV 9S, launched late last year, now features a new Custom drive mode,&nbsp;in addition to the existing Default, Everyday, Range, and Race modes.&nbsp;This update comes in response to feedback regarding the <a href="https://www.autox.com/suv-cars-in-india/">SUV’s</a> soft adaptive suspension,&nbsp;particularly on the Pack Three trim. Currently, the Custom drive mode is exclusive to XEV 9S&nbsp;Pack Three variants equipped with adaptive dampers. Here’s a closer look at what&nbsp;the new Custom drive mode offers and how it enhances both comfort and performance for <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/mahindra/">Mahindra</a> XEV 9S drivers.<h2>Mahindra XEV 9S: Here’s How the New Custom Drive Mode Works </h2><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/02/Mahindra-XEV-9S-Gets-Custom-Mode-1772165230143.webp" alt="Mahindra XEV 9S Gets Custom Mode.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
 The new Custom drive mode in the Mahindra XEV 9S has been introduced to address feedback about the softer adaptive suspension offered in the Pack Three trim. While the standard setup&nbsp;prioritised comfort, some reviewers noted excessive vertical body movement over uneven roads, particularly&nbsp;at higher speeds. Although Race mode offered better control with a firmer suspension, it also sharpened throttle,&nbsp;steering, and regenerative braking responses, increasing energy consumption and making it less suitable for daily use.&nbsp;The new Custom mode addresses this by letting drivers individually adjust suspension stiffness, powertrain response, steering&nbsp;feel, and even climate settings. For instance, users can opt for a firmer suspension like Race mode while keeping steering light and throttle response relaxed as in Comfort mode.Also Read:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/mahindra-bo7-electric-suv-india-launch-in-2027-check-expected-specs-features-price-more-122997/">Mahindra BO7 Electric SUV India Launch in 2027 - Check Expected Specs, Features, Price &amp; More</a>While newly manufactured Mahindra XEV 9S units come standard with the ‘Custom’ drive mode, existing Pack Three models could receive&nbsp;the feature via an over-the-air update or at authorized dealerships.

Mahindra XEV 9S Gets New Custom Drive Mode – Here’s Why

The Mahindra XEV 9S, launched late last year, now features a new Custom drive mode, in addition to the existing Default, Everyday, Range, and Race modes. The electric SUV is priced from Rs 19.95 lakh (ex-showroom). 

The new Mahindra electric SUV, internally codenamed BO7, is all set to launch&nbsp;in India in 2027, as confirmed by Rajesh Jejurikar, Executive Director and CEO,&nbsp;Auto and Farm Sector, during the company’s Q3 FY26 analyst meeting. While the exact specifications remain under wraps, the upcoming BO7 electric SUV is anticipated by Mahindra to be a ‘very big volume driver’. As for the current calendar year, the homegrown automaker has no plans to introduce any new EV. Addressing analysts, Jejurikar stated, 'On EVs, both what we had spoken about are done for this calendar year. So, there's no new EV launch happening in this calendar year.'<h2>Mahindra BO7 Electric SUV: Exterior</h2><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/02/Mahindra-BE.07-Concept-Rear-1772100951826.webp" alt="Mahindra BE.07 Concept Rear.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">The upcoming SUV is likely to be the production-spec version of the Mahindra BE.07&nbsp;concept that was showcased in 2022, and was&nbsp;originally slated to go on sale in October 2026. It will mark the fourth born-electric model in the brand’s&nbsp;lineup and will be underpinned by the dedicated INGLO platform.Also Read:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/hyundai-cretas-dominance-at-risk-two-big-suv-launches-coming-soon-122987/">Hyundai Creta’s Dominance at Risk? Two Big SUV Launches Coming Soon</a>The production-ready BE.07 is expected to stay largely faithful to the concept, with a conventional SUV design. Key elements include distinctive C-shaped LED lighting signatures,&nbsp;less angular headlamps and taillights, pronounced wheel arches, and prominent body cladding.&nbsp;In terms of size, the production-ready BE.07 could turn out to be larger than key rivals such as the Hyundai Creta Electric and the Maruti&nbsp;Suzuki e Vitara, if it retains the concept’s proportions.&nbsp;For reference, the show car measures 4,565mm&nbsp;in length, 1,900mm in width, and 1,660mm&nbsp;in height, and has a 2,775mm wheelbase.<h2>Mahindra BO7 Electric SUV: Interior</h2><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/02/Mahindra-BE.07-Concept-Interior-1772100956033.webp" alt="Mahindra BE.07 Concept Interior.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">The cabin of the <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/mahindra/be07/">Mahindra BE.07</a> offers a unique tech-forward experience. One of the key highlights is a massive,&nbsp;full-width digital screen that spans the entire dashboard. The concept also features&nbsp;a large panoramic sunroof. In line with its digital-first philosophy,&nbsp;Mahindra has significantly reduced or potentially eliminated conventional physical buttons,&nbsp;replacing them with touch-sensitive panels and haptic feedback controls.&nbsp;While it remains to be seen how many of these advanced&nbsp;features will make it to the production model, the upcoming Mahindra EV&nbsp;is expected to offer a comprehensive feature list tailored to meet the expectations of Indian SUV buyers.<h2>Mahindra BO7 Electric SUV: Powertrain</h2>Similar to the existing born-electrics from Mahindra, the upcoming<a href="https://www.autox.com/suv-cars-in-india/"> SUV</a>, internally codenamed BO7,&nbsp;is likely to be offered with two battery pack options (59kWh and 79kWh).
