Mahindra Cars in India
Mahindra builds tough, powerful SUVs made for Indian roads. Compare Mahindra prices, specs, safety and owner reviews for every SUV in the range.
Mahindra XUV 3XO
₹7.79 Lakh onwards
Mahindra does one thing and does it with conviction. Every model in its range is an SUV, so there is no hatchback or sedan to distract the engineers. This is the brand people go to when they want real ground clearance, a tall driving position, and proper 4x4 hardware underneath. Nothing in the range pretends to be a small city runabout.
The rugged reputation runs deep, from old Jeep roots to the Thar that became a lifestyle icon. The seven-seat Mahindra Scorpio N carries that same image into everyday family use. Mahindra sells 11 models here, priced from about Rs 7.79 lakh to roughly Rs 30.50 lakh.
At the affordable end the Mahindra XUV 3XO price opens the door to a feature-loaded compact SUV. Move up and the Mahindra Thar Roxx pulls in buyers who want off-road ability with a nicer cabin. Safety has become a real strength too, with several models earning 5-star crash scores. Diesel still features strongly across the range, which suits buyers who pile on the highway miles.
The electric turn is the newest chapter. The Mahindra BE 6 and the XEV 9e coupe SUV show the brand can build sharp, modern EVs.
The seven seat XEV 9S takes the same platform into family territory, and Mahindra says it was India's highest selling EV from July to September 2026. People choose Mahindra cars in India for road presence and toughness that a Tata or Hyundai crossover cannot quite match.

Mahindra is one of India's biggest carmakers and its fastest-rising big name. In August 2026 it held about 12.7 percent of the passenger vehicle market, sitting third behind Maruti and Tata. What stands out is that every Mahindra sold is an SUV, from the Thar to the XUV700 and the electric BE 6. For an SUV buyer, that focus means deep know-how, a strong dealer network and healthy resale.

Mahindra cars: frequently asked questions
Does Mahindra make electric cars?
Yes, Mahindra now sells three born-electric SUVs. The BE 6 is a five seat coupe-styled SUV with a 59, 70 or 79 kWh battery and a range of about 573 to 708 km. It starts at 19.45 lakh ex-showroom. The XEV 9e is another five seat coupe SUV, with a 59 kWh battery good for about 522 km or a 79 kWh battery for about 656 km. It runs from 21.90 lakh to 30.50 lakh ex-showroom and adds a triple screen dashboard. The XEV 9S is the seven seater of the three. It offers 59, 70 and 79 kWh batteries rated at 521 to 679 km, and costs 20.65 lakh to 30.15 lakh. You can compare all three on their model pages below.
Which Mahindra SUVs come with four-wheel drive?
Four-wheel drive is a big part of Mahindra's identity. The Thar OG and the five door Thar Roxx both let you choose rear wheel or four wheel drive. The Scorpio N diesel comes with real 4XPLOR four wheel drive for rough terrain. The top diesel XUV 7XO adds all wheel drive too. These SUVs also sit high, with the Thar OG at 232mm of ground clearance and the Thar Roxx at 226mm. From our study of the range, these are the models to shortlist for serious off-road or bad-road use. See each spec below.
What is the cheapest Mahindra you can buy?
That is the XUV 3XO, which starts at 7.79 lakh ex-showroom. It is a five seat compact SUV with a bold design and a long feature list for the money. You can pick a 1.2 litre turbo petrol in two states of tune, a 1.5 litre diesel, or the ZNG, which runs the petrol on factory fitted CNG. The petrols come with a manual or a torque converter automatic, and the diesel with a manual or an AMT. The petrol returns up to about 20.1 kmpl, the diesel up to about 21.2 kmpl and the ZNG 24.7 km/kg. Prices climb to 15.03 lakh for the top variant. See the full price list and mileage figures below.
How many Mahindra SUVs seat seven?
Six of them do. The Bolero and Bolero Neo are the tough, boxy seven seaters, built for village and small town roads. The Scorpio Classic is the older ladder frame Scorpio, also with seven seats. The Scorpio N seats seven with a more modern, muscular feel and a big 786 litre boot. The XUV 7XO is a feature rich seven seat family SUV. The electric XEV 9S rounds it off, with seven seats or a six seat captain chair layout. The Bolero starts at 8.57 lakh, while the Scorpio N, XUV 7XO and XEV 9S climb past 25 lakh at the top. Full seating and boot details sit on each model page below.
What sets the Thar OG apart from the Thar Roxx?
Both are off-road Thars, but the body is the big split. The Thar OG is the classic three door, a four seat 4x4 with 232mm of ground clearance. It is the 2026 facelift, now with full LED headlamps, 19 inch alloys and six airbags. Prices run from 10.32 lakh to 18.99 lakh ex-showroom. The Thar Roxx is the five door version. It seats five, adds proper rear doors and a 447 litre boot, and suits daily family use better. It costs from 12.52 lakh to 23.52 lakh. Pick the OG for pure character, or the Roxx for space. Compare both below.
Which Mahindra diesel returns the best mileage?
The XUV 3XO diesel leads here. Its 1.5 litre diesel is rated at up to about 21.2 kmpl, the best diesel figure we found across the range. After that the Bolero Neo returns about 17.29 kmpl and the XUV 7XO diesel about 17 kmpl. The older Bolero manages around 16 kmpl. Heavier ladder frame SUVs sip a bit more, with the Scorpio N diesel at about 15.42 kmpl and the Scorpio Classic at about 14.44 kmpl. When we compared the variants, the smaller XUV 3XO stayed the most efficient diesel. Full mileage figures for every model sit below.
Are any Mahindra SUVs available with a petrol engine?
Plenty do, even though Mahindra is famous for diesel. The XUV 3XO offers a 1.2 litre turbo petrol in two tunes. The Thar OG and Thar Roxx both come with a 2.0 litre turbo petrol. The Scorpio N uses a strong 2.0 litre turbo petrol making 200 bhp. The XUV 7XO has its own 2.0 litre turbo petrol with 197 bhp. The Bolero, Bolero Neo and Scorpio Classic stay diesel only. From our reading of the brochures, these are the petrol options to look at. Compare engines and prices on each model page below.
Should you buy the Scorpio Classic or the Scorpio N?
They sit side by side in the range, so it comes down to taste. The Scorpio Classic is the older, boxy Scorpio, diesel only with a 2.2 litre engine and a six speed manual. It is simple, rugged and cheaper, from 13.43 lakh to 17.48 lakh. The Scorpio N is the newer, more muscular model. It adds a petrol option, an automatic, 4XPLOR four wheel drive on diesel and a huge 786 litre boot. It runs from 13.69 lakh up to 25.49 lakh. Pick the Classic for value and toughness, or the Scorpio N for modern kit. See both below.
