6. Driving & Comfort

Driving & Comfort Assessment

Performance Score10.0/10
Comfort Score7.8/10

City Driving

Instant torque delivery makes city driving effortless with zero lag. Turning radius of 5.2m is reasonable for urban maneuvers. Excellent ground clearance handles speed breakers and potholes with ease. Large footprint makes narrow lanes challenging, but visibility helps.

Highway Performance

With 282 bhp and 380 Nm, overtaking at highway speeds is effortless. Linear power delivery and regenerative braking make highway driving smooth and efficient.

Ride & Comfort

Torsion beam rear suspension handles most road imperfections adequately. High ground clearance gives confidence over rough patches and unpaved roads. Cabin noise is well-controlled at city speeds; some wind noise creeps in on highways. Generous 500L boot space makes it practical for long trips. Third-row seating is best for children; adults may find it cramped on long journeys.

"XEV 9S: After-sales experience varies wildly between dealerships. Some are excellent, others dismiss genuine concerns."

"Perfect Car For Family!: I have checked this car out, and to say, this car looks absolutely fantastic, it gives a luxury vibe and also comes with high-end tech, one the most stunning cars I have seen in India, the design and size of the car competes with top car companies such as the fortuner. Overall, this car is perfect for families."

"Excellent car with super pickup and good for 5+2 only 2 small kids at the back.: I own a Tesla Y overseas, hence this review is comparing that. I also drove 50k kms in electric vehicles so far. Mahindra has put a good effort into making this vehicle's pros and cons: Pros: Excellent pickup comparable to Tesla. Good features close match to a Premium Car worth more than 50 lacs. Very good road presence. Very good shockers, but can be uncomfortable for 5+2 on long drives due to subtle sway movements sideways, but for 5, it's ok with the reclining middle seat. Excellent size Frunk Good Autopilot ahead of all other brands, but way behind Tesla. Cons: Range calculations are very bad, no sync between the mobile and car range. Dolby Sound System is good, but can be improved. The mobile app hardly works and takes a lot of time to sync with the car. Very little rear boot space with last seats open. Headlights could have more lumens; another 15% would be nice. UI & UX on screen could be improved."

"Got faulty car: 1 Star – Very Disappointing Experience with Mahindra XEV 9e / XEV 9S I was very excited to buy the XEV 9S, but my experience with Mahindra has been extremely disappointing. The car has multiple manufacturing and software-related defects. Every few days, a new issue appears in the vehicle. Alexa feature is still not activated even after more than 1 month of delivery. Service quality is very poor and there is no proper follow-up from the company or dealership. Sales experience was also not satisfactory, with poor communication and support. For a premium EV, the overall quality control feels incomplete and untested. Instead of enjoying a new car, I am constantly visiting or contacting service support. Mahindra really needs to improve: Vehicle quality checks Software stability Customer support Service responsiveness Delivery readiness before handing over cars"

"Car Is Good Looking.: Super cool look and stylish but price is little bit high. Range is ultimate.The quality of Inside is also good but as per price side seems a bit high, should be under 20 lack (top end). In the case one can switch from traditional car to ev car. overall I will give 4 star. the radical change from the company."

"Excellent experience: Awesome, best pickup and high performance, with great ground clearance, best in segment with stylish looks, best colours look and excellent build quality at the price point. Acceleration is quick, and the car feels powerful even in city traffic like Surat. The interior looks very premium with a large touchscreen, digital display, and comfortable seats. Suspension is also very good, and it handles rough roads easily."

"Refined, Smooth, Electric — First Drive Impressions of the XEV 9S: A brief drive in the Mahindra XEV 9S immediately highlights its focus on refinement and effortless mobility. The electric drivetrain responds smoothly to throttle inputs, delivering instant torque in a controlled and progressive manner. City driving feels stress-free, with quick acceleration available whenever needed, yet without any harshness or surge. The cabin remains notably quiet, even as speeds build up, creating a calm and premium driving environment. Wind and road noise are well managed, allowing occupants to enjoy a composed and relaxed ride. The elevated driving position offers clear visibility all around, enhancing confidence in traffic and on open roads. Ride quality leans toward comfort, with the suspension absorbing rough patches and uneven surfaces effectively. Larger bumps are handled with maturity, though mild body movement can be felt over continuous undulations at higher speeds — a trade-off that favours plushness over sporty firmness. Steering is light and predictable, making the SUV easy to manoeuvre in tight spaces while remaining stable on highways. Braking performance feels reassuring and progressive, contributing to a secure overall driving feel. Overall Impression The XEV 9S delivers a polished and comfort-oriented driving experience, blending silent electric performance with smooth ride quality and everyday practicality. It is clearly tuned for relaxed urban commuting and composed highway cruising rather than aggressive driving — an appealing proposition for buyers seeking refinement in an electric SUV"
