Pros Cons of Mahindra XUV400

Pros

  • Class-leading cabin space and boot capacity
  • Exceptional ride quality over broken tarmac
  • Punchy acceleration from the 148 bhp electric motor

Cons

  • The cabin still looks a bit outdated
  • Rear seating posture feels slightly knees-up
  • Relatively slower charging speeds compared to newer rivals

Verdict

The updated Mahindra XUV400 proves that the automaker has carefully listened to customer feedback. By overhauling the cabin’s materials and upgrading it with some much-needed modern technology, the SUV is mostly a complete, well-appointed package. It handles the rigorous traffic of urban commutes effortlessly, while the high-tech dampers keep in check that pothole-ridden roads never unsettle the passengers.

But we need to point out one thing here. The XUV 3XO is a fresh offering from the Indian brand that landed on showroom floors in 2026, and throughout its inception to its launch, it has often been called the direct successor to the XUV400. While not instantly vanishing away, the XUV 400’s charging speed is noticeably slower when we compare it to modern competitors like its own sibling or even the Tata Curvv EV. But if this isn’t something that troubles your mind, and all you care about is owning a deeply sensible choice from the EV segment, the Mahindra XUV400 is still a practical and ideal vehicle for Indian roads.

As Shams observes,

“For the last few years, while competitors were busy launching electric cars, Mahindra was silently perfecting its EV program. If the brand hits that aggressive price point, this ‘woken giant’ could be in for a very long and successful run in the Indian EV space.”
