The five new electric SUVs include the XUV.e8, XUV.e9, BE.05, BE.07 and BE.09, which will come with Mahindra’s new Heartcore design philosophy. The first four of these will be launched in the next four years, between 2024 and 2026.
With a plan to invest over USD 1 billion in electric vehicle ambition, Mahindra in July raised INR 1,925 crores (USD 250 million) at a valuation of up to INR 70,070 crores (USD 9.1 billion) from British International Investment, the UK's Development Finance Institution, into its electric four wheeler business.
