Agni Mahindra, the exclusive distributor of Mahindra electric vehicles in Nepal, has recently launched the Mahindra XUV400 electric SUV. Priced at Rs 52.50 lakh, the XUV400 promises to be a game-changer in the Nepali automotive market, offering a blend of cutting-edge technology, powerful performance, and modern features.
Thrilling Performance
The Mahindra XUV400 stands out as the first Indian passenger vehicle in the non-luxury segment to achieve the fastest acceleration, reaching 0-100 km/h in just 8.3 seconds. Powered by a 110 kW (150 PS) motor and 310 Nm of torque, it delivers a top speed of 160 km/h. The vehicle is equipped with a high-capacity 39.4 kWh battery, providing an impressive range of 456 km on a single full charge (MIDC). This makes it an ideal choice for long drives without the anxiety of frequent recharges.
Intelligent Driving Modes
The XUV400 offers a seamless driving experience with its intelligent drive modes. The modes include Fun, Fast, and Fearless, which adjust throttle response and steering sensitivity. Additionally, the segment-first single pedal drive mode, ‘Lively Mode,’ ensures effortless driving in dense traffic by enabling smooth acceleration and braking.
Spacious and Premium Interiors
The XUV400 boasts a spacious cabin with a length of 4,200 mm and a wheelbase of 2,600 mm, providing ample legroom and best-in-class boot space of 378 litres (418 litres up to the roof). The all-black sporty interiors, accentuated with satin copper and blue back-lighting, give the SUV a premium and sophisticated feel.
Advanced Safety Features
Safety is paramount in the XUV400, which is built on a five-star rated platform from the Global NCAP. It includes six airbags, disc brakes on all wheels, ISOFIX child seat mounts, and a rearview camera for easy parking. The battery pack meets IP67 standards for dust and water resistance, ensuring durability and safety in various conditions.
Modern Technology and Connectivity
The XUV400 is equipped with a range of modern features, including an electric sunroof, a 17.78 cm touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and the Blue Sense+ mobile app for enhanced connectivity. The vehicle also offers gamification of driving behaviors with a ‘thrill-o-meter’ to make driving more engaging and fun.

In Nepal, the XUV400 will be available in a single variant – EL Pro. The SUV will be available in five colors: Arctic Blue, Everest White, Galaxy Grey, Napoli Black, and Infinity Blue with a dual-tone roof option in Satin Copper.
