TL;DR
Mahindra will globally unveil the XEV 9S, its first 'born-electric' 7-seater SUV built on the INGLO platform, on November 27, 2025, in Bengaluru.
Mahindra is set to expand its electric vehicle lineup with the global debut of the XEV 9S, its first 7-seater electric SUV. This 'born-electric' vehicle, built on Mahindra's advanced INGLO platform, is scheduled for its official unveiling at the 'Scream Electric' event in Bengaluru on November 27, 2025. This launch coincides with the first anniversary of Mahindra's born-electric range, marking a strategic expansion into the rapidly growing family SUV segment.
Unlike electric vehicles adapted from internal combustion models, the XEV 9S has been engineered from the ground up as an EV. Its INGLO skateboard architecture allows for a flat-floor design, providing generous cabin space and flexible seating configurations, including sliding second-row seats for enhanced comfort. The design is expected to share cues with Mahindra's newer EV lineup, featuring connected LED lighting elements and a triple-screen digital dashboard.
While specific battery and powertrain details are yet to be disclosed, it is anticipated that the XEV 9S will feature large battery packs and offer claimed ranges exceeding 500km, consistent with other INGLO-based models. Multiple variants, potentially including both rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive configurations, are expected. Mahindra aims to emphasize that for electric mobility, factors like size, space, and shared experiences are as crucial as performance and technology.
