Mahindra XUV.e9 Spotted Testing Ahead of India Launch, Shows Dynamic Turn Indicators, Split-LED headlights and More

The Mahindra XUV.e9 has been spotted while being tested on Indian roads again, loaded with features such as a split-LED headlamp and alloy wheels, similar to the concept exhibited in 2023. The test mule also sports dynamic turn indicators (front and rear) in an inverted L shape. While the front indicators double as connected LED DRLs, the rear indicators act as taillamps attached by a light bar. The ADAS radar in the middle of the front bumper is another intriguing feature. Previous spy photographs suggest that the SUV will have a shark-fin antenna, squared-off wheel arches, and a rear parking camera with sensors. Although Mahindra has not made any official announcements, the electrified SUV Coupe is likely to hit the market in the first half of 2025.

Mahindra XUV.e9: Interior 

The interior is not visible in the most recent spy photos. Previous spy images, however, indicate that the Mahindra XUV.e9 will include three screens (a 10.25-inch touchscreen for the front passenger and two 10.25-inch horizontal displays), a two-spoke steering wheel, drive mode selector lever, and semi-leatherette seat upholstery. It may also have a fully digital instrument panel, dual-zone climate control, a panoramic sunroof, and ambient lighting. 

Mahindra XUV.e9: Features

Mahindra's SUV Coupe is likely to be equipped with features like a premium audio system, a wireless phone charger, powered and ventilated seats, vehicle-to-load (V2L), and various regeneration modes. It is also expected to have a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), six airbags (as standard), an electronic stability program (ESP), and ADAS, with features like adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, and forward-collision warning for safety. 

Mahindra XUV.e9: Powertrain

Although a lot about the powertrain specifications are still unknown, Mahindra's in-house INGLO skateboard platform will serve as the foundation for the XUV.e9. This platform can support 60kWh and 80kWh battery packs, fast charging capabilities of up to 175kW, and a combined range of up to 500 kilometres. It is suitable for both rear-wheel-drive (RWD) and all-wheel-drive (AWD) configurations.
