3. Is the Tata Harrier EV real world range more than Mahindra XEV 9e?
Top-spec XEV 9e returns 55km more on a single charge.
We recently did a real world range comparison test of the top trims of the Tata Harrier EV (75kWh) and the Mahindra XEV 9e (79kWh). The XEV 9e returned a real world range of 456km combined (city 425km, highway 488km), whereas the Harrier EV was 55km behind, with a combined range of 401km (city 409km, highway 393km). The Mahindra SUV is also faster to charge with a DC charger, but the Tata has a quicker AC charging time. We are yet to test the XEV 9e 59kWh version in real-world conditions.

Three 12.3-inch digital displays.
As standard, all XEV 9e variants feature three digital screens, including a driver’s display, a central touchscreen and a passenger unit. Each screen measures 12.3-inch, but the middle unit houses key car controls such as drive modes and climate control. The XEV 9e top model even features ventilated front seats, a panoramic glass roof (fixed) with embedded lights, a 16-speaker Harman Kardon sound system with Dolby Atmos, and more.
6. Is the Mahindra XEV 9e prone to software niggles?
Driver’s display going blank, failed smartphone integration reported by some.
While the touchscreen is slick, responsive to inputs and packed with features, our XEV 9e review found its user interface to be confusing. That said, Mahindra had then assured that the test vehicle had a beta unit installed and things will be sorted. Some users have also reported other software-related issues like driver’s display blanking out, non-responsive MAIA AI assistant and wireless smartphone integration failing.
