Said Mahindra to itself, and the electric version of the same has been spotted testing with the exact look (at least in silhouette). To be named the XUV.e8, this electric version of the XUV700 is taking the same shell, albeit with some really interesting updates.

Mahindra XUV700 EV Spied Testing: The Logo Finally Glows!

The Mahindra XUV700 EV better known as the Mahindra XUV.e8 is now a familiar face in the spy shot universe and that is evident from its silhouette match with the XUV700, although with some very neat and futuristic updates. Taking this new spotting in focus, the triangular-shaped LED headlamps with DRLs at night time showcased the throw and intensity, that felt pretty promising. However, it is the illuminated new logo that took the spotlight and looks pretty neat as a visual add-on to the electrifying SUV.

Apart from this, a closed-off front grill and the omission of any exhaust pipe reinforced its eco nature. On top of this, a recent spy shot confirmed the presence of a triple-screen set-up that makes the cabin feel a lot more premium than before. While the XUV.e8 is essentially the electric version of the XUV700, it boasts enhanced technology within the cabin. It features an impressive 10.25-inch triple-screen configuration: one screen serves as the primary infotainment display, another acts as the drivers display, and the third is dedicated to the co-passenger. The main infotainment screen also supports wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay for seamless connectivity.
