The XEV 9S should be a good fit for those looking for a three-row EV in the mass-segment, with most of the traits of the XUV700 but in a more refined, modern, and more importantly in a package without the combustion engine. It is loaded with features, it gets multiple battery pack options and even the base variant comes with more than decent levels of performance.

Mahindra XEV 9S Detailed Review

Looks And Design 8

• The XEV 9S comes across as a blend between the XUV700 and the XEV 9E. The core silhouette is identical to the XUV700, but there are design elements from the XEV 9E, such as the angular headlamps with a connected light strip, redesigned tail lamps with thin strips and smoke effect, and aero alloy wheels. 
• The flush-fitting door handles have been retained, while the grille from the XUV has been replaced with a closed-off panel. The XEV 9E comes with six colour options on offer; Desert Myst, Midnight Black, Nebula Blue, Ruby Velvet, Everest White and Stealth Black.
