00:00Welcome to the new video of Drivespaq
00:03Today we have with us Mahindra's new car XEV-9E
00:14This is an electric car
00:16This car is being developed in a platform called Inglot
00:20It is a new platform
00:22Both 6E and 9E are being developed in this platform
00:26Let's talk about the design of this car
00:296E is a sporty design
00:33But this is a softer design
00:36Some of the lines of this car gives an aggressive look
00:41We can see the new Mahindra logo here
00:44We get connected DRLs in this car
00:47We didn't get connected DRLs in 6E

00:54We have piano black scuff plates
00:59There is a front facing camera to assist parking
01:02We get a 19 inch huge profile tyre
01:08I don't think a tyre this big can help the stability of a car
01:13If we look at the side, we can see a body cladding
01:17We can see more body cladding than a normal car
01:23There is an Inglot Electric Origin badge
01:29There are flush door handle bars
01:31There is a dual tone overview
01:33We can see indicators and a camera
01:36It helps with 360 degree
01:38There is a QR code called 3
01:41I don't know what it is
01:43But I think 3 is the name of the variant
01:45We get this car in pack 1, pack 2 and pack 3
01:50They have launched pack 1
01:52Very soon they will launch pack 2
01:56This is a coupe SUV

02:35Let's sit in the rear seat
02:37We can see the rear seat

02:44Coupe SUVs had less headroom
02:48But this car has ample headroom
02:51Legroom is good
02:53Shoulder room is also good

04:32This is the first time we can see a moon screen in a car
04:36It was available in big brands
04:39Mahindra has given us a moon screen for 21.9 lakhs
04:43Last time when XUV was launched, both the screens were very appealing

06:35There are two battery packs

06:44It's a good thing that the range is 500 km for this price
06:49The power is 280 bhp
06:54Because the battery packs are different
06:58Mahindra has given a lifetime battery warranty for this car
07:06You can buy this car and give it to them whenever the battery gets damaged
