We all are waiting for the Tata Harrier.ev, as we saw what wonders Tata Motors has done in the Nexon.ev, Punch.ev, etc. We are sure that the Harrier ev launch will not be less than a wonder. But whilst everyone’s waiting for the Tata EVs, Mahindra is quietly conducting the tests for their upcoming EVs, one of which was spotted by one of our Carversal Pros and it is the Mahindra XUV.e9. The XUV.e9 India launch is not that far and with the Harrier.ev officially unveiled in the Bharat Expo, it makes the rivalry between Mahindra and Tata Motors more exciting. Let us see what today’s topic brings us - Mahindra XUV.e9 Spied with Triple Display setup as Launch nears

Mahindra XUV.e9 Spy shots 

On the front, we can spot the standing DRLs, which will also be given the connected design. The main headlamps will also be given LEDs, as we can see in the image. 

The XUV.e9 will run on 20’ alloy wheels, as they are visible in the image. 

This image reveals the key spotlight of the XUV.e9, which is the three displays. The XUV.e9 will be the first Indian SUV to ever get three displays in the interior for the Infotainment and Instrument Cluster. All these three screens will most probably be 10.25’ in size and will get a host of features. 

The Instrument Cluster, which is on the extreme right, also known as the Driver’s display, will have a navigation display feature. It will also have various faces depending on the mode the SUV is in. 

The middle Infotainment screen will be the main hub from where all the mechanicals can be scanned and information can be gathered. 360* camera, off-road settings, battery status, etc all details can be accessed from this screen. 

The third screen, which is placed in front of the Co-driver’s seat is for pure entertainment. It will be used to watch movies and browse the Internet. 

It will also get a steering wheel that is similar to the ones in today's Tata cars, which is that it will get a two-spoke steering wheel with Mahindra's logo illuminating in a screen. 

In this spy shot we can see that the XUV.e9 gets a connected Tal light, which is also given a curve. Half of the tail lights have not been mounted on the SUV, as we can see, but the indicators will be getting the sequential feature. 

It will also get a Shark Fin Antenna on offer. The boot will have a wide and spacious opening, as the rear windshield will also be lifted with the boot door.
