Mahindra XUV 3XO EV Spotted Testing with New Dual-tone Alloy Wheels Ahead of India Launch

It's no secret that Mahindra is working on an electric version of the XUV 3XO for the Indian market. The car was spotted for the first time in August, with features like C-shaped DRLs and a fender-mounted charging port, among others. Now, ahead of its anticipated launch next year, the XUV 3XO EV has been spotted on our roads again, featuring a new set of dual-tone alloy wheels and copper accents. As you can see in the most recent spy photos, the overall silhouette of the electric model is identical to that of its ICE sibling. However, the front fascia seems to be a little different with a slender, closed-off grille and stacked headlamps. The charging port is located on the front passenger-side fender, while the rear sports L-shaped LED taillights with a light bar in the middle.
