Mahindra XUV400 vs XUV300: Mahindra & Mahindra has unveiled their first electric SUV, the XUV400. Mahindra has already unveiled the concept form of numerous new SUVs that the local manufacturer would launch in the future. The small SUV XUV300 can be thought of as the electric variant of the XUV400. Mahindra has, however, significantly altered the XUV300 to create the XUV400. These are all the variations between the two SUVs.
XUV300 vs Mahindra XUV400: Visual
Both SUVs appear extremely similar at first glance, however Mahindra has made minor external alterations. The XUV400 does away with the XUV300’s bumper-mounted vertical LED Daytime Running Lamp. The bumper on the XUV400 is designed differently and features copper-finished twins-peak logos. In order to identify its electric vehicles from other vehicles, Mahindra will actually employ the copper colour frequently. The XUV400’s tail lamp design is the same as the XUV300’s, but the components within are changed.
XUV300 vs Mahindra XUV400: Cabin
A new gear lever and gauges tailored to EVs are included in the XUV400. The XUV300 receives a dual-tone black and beige theme, whereas the cabin is currently finished in an all-black style. The interior features internal elements made of copper as well. In addition, there are some blue accents.
Proportions between the XUV400 and XUV300 are one of the largest differences
The 4.2-meter-long Ssangyong Tivoli is the model upon which the XUV300 is based. Mahindra decreased the XUV300’s length to under 4 metres in order to take advantage of the tax savings. Electric vehicles, however, do not benefit tax-wise from being shorter than 4 metres. Mahindra therefore decided to make the most of the platform’s capabilities and extend the length back to 4.2 metres. Consequently, the XUV400 is 205 mm longer than the XUV300. This has contributed to the boot’s increase from 257 to 378 litres. That represents a 121-liter increase.
Specs of the Mahindra XUV400 and XUV300
Mahindra has only provided one XUV400 specification. It will have a front-axle mounted electric motor with a maximum output of 150 horsepower and a maximum torque of 310 Nm. According to Indian driving cycle requirements, the battery pack has a 39.2 kWh capacity, and its driving range is 456 km.
Both a gasoline and a diesel engine are available for the XUV300. Diesel engines produce 117 PS and 300 Nm, compared to 110 PS and 200 Nm for gasoline engines.
