Mahindra is preparing to expand its electric SUV lineup, and one of the most anticipated upcoming models is the XEV 9S — a new mid-size EV expected to slot between the XUV400 and the larger XUV.e8. Auto.MotorMitra

Early information suggests that the XEV 9S may become the most feature-rich electric SUV priced under ₹20 lakh, targeting rivals like the Tata Curvv EV, Hyundai Creta EV, MG ZS EV base trims and Maruti Suzuki eVX entry variants. motormitra.in

The SUV is expected to be part of Mahindra’s new XEV family, which also includes the XEV 3S, 5S, and 7S. The 9S will likely be:

• Bigger than XUV400
• Smaller than XUV.e8
• Built on a born-EV platform
• Aimed at the ₹15–20 lakh EV buyer group

This places it in the fastest-growing EV price bracket in India. motormitra.in
