Introduction
Mahindra has once again sparked excitement in India’s electric vehicle space with the teaser of its upcoming Mahindra XEV 9S Electric 7S SUV. Scheduled for debut at the ‘Scream Electric’ event on 27th November 2025 in Bengaluru, the XEV 9S will mark India’s first 7-seater mainstream electric SUV. Set to expand Mahindra’s electric portfolio under the INGLO platform, this model promises a perfect blend of power, space, and futuristic technology.
A Glance at Mahindra’s Electric Journey
Exactly a year after launching the Mahindra BE 6 and XEV 9e in 2024, the company is set to elevate its EV lineup. These models earned immense attention for their dynamic design and performance. The Mahindra XEV 9S Electric 7S SUV now steps in as the next strategic move, aimed at families seeking premium electric mobility with extra seating capacity.
Design and Exterior Highlights
Unlike the coupe-styled XEV 9e, the Mahindra XEV 9S Electric 7S SUV adopts a conventional SUV design. The upright look ensures sufficient cabin space for third-row seating, fulfilling the needs of larger families. The new model shares visual DNA with the powerful XUV700 while maintaining a more futuristic design inspired by the BE range.
Key expected design details:
- Wide, signature closed-off EV grille
- Bold LED DRL signature inspired by XEV 9e
- Muscular stance with aerodynamic silhouette
- Large panoramic sunroof and sporty alloy wheels
Luxurious and Connected Interior
Inside, the Mahindra XEV 9S Electric 7S SUV mirrors the dashboard layout seen in the XEV 9e, which features a triple-screen setup – three connected 12.3-inch displays creating a continuous digital interface. Spy shots have revealed a flat-bottom steering wheel with an illuminated Mahindra logo, elevating the premium cabin experience.
Expected interior features:
- 6 and 7-seater configurations (captain seats for 6S variant)
- Panoramic sunroof and dual-zone climate control
- Digital key with remote vehicle access
- Ambient lighting across the cabin
- Rear AC vents for all rows
- Premium 1,600W Harman Kardon 16-speaker audio system
Performance and Battery
Built on Mahindra’s cutting-edge INGLO platform, the XEV 9S will be a “born electric” SUV and not an ICE adaptation. It is expected to carry over the same 59 kWh and 79 kWh battery packs offered with the XEV 9e, ensuring powerful range and efficiency. Dual-motor AWD configuration is likely to be available for enthusiasts seeking both performance and mild off-road capability.
Core technical expectations:
- Dual-motor AWD setup
- Power output expected to rival premium EV SUVs
- Range estimated between 450–550 km (depending on battery pack)
- Fast charging support through 800V architecture
Technology and Safety
Mahindra XEV 9S Electric 7S SUV will feature advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), vehicle-to-load (V2L) functionality, and over-the-air (OTA) updates for seamless tech upgrades. The company promises a strong safety package with multiple airbags, traction control, and regenerative braking.
Launch and Availability
The Mahindra XEV 9S Electric 7S SUV will officially debut at the ‘Scream Electric’ event in Bengaluru on 27th November 2025. Pricing details will be revealed at launch, but it is expected to sit above the XEV 9e in Mahindra’s electric lineup. Bookings may open soon after the debut.
