Buyers who want driver assists usually found on bigger cars — Level 2 ADAS with adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, auto emergency braking, blind spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert
Daily commuters who charge at home — a full charge takes 6.5 hours on a 7.2 kW wall box, and CarDekho estimates around 280 km of real-world range, enough for a Pune-Mumbai run
Cons
What to watch before you buy
456 km is the ARAI claim. CarDekho's review puts real-world range at around 280 km, with a claimed real-world figure of 285 km, so plan longer trips around that.
DC fast charging is limited to 50 kW: CarDekho lists 0-80% in 50 minutes. Its spec sheet also prints '24 min (10-80%) on a 350 kW charger', which does not match a 50 kW limit, so we use the 50-minute figure.
There is only one battery, 39.4 kWh — the same size, power (150 PS / 310 Nm) and 456 km claim as the XUV400 already listed. Rivals offer a bigger battery option.
Bharat NCAP gave the petrol and diesel XUV 3XO five stars; the EV has no crash test result of its own yet, CarDekho only expects the same rating.
CarDekho's spec sheet lists 364 litres of boot, but its review says the space is the same as the petrol 3XO. The cabin design is carried over from the petrol car and feels dated, and there are no ventilated seats. CarDekho lists waiting periods of more than two months.
