These are anticipated to launch in 2024, and these SUVs span across compact, off-road, and electric segments. In this article, we bring you all the details on these exciting additions to Mahindra’s SUV lineup!
Mahindra after months of testing the XUV300 Facelift is all set to launch the SUV in the early 2024, possibly in the month of February 2024.

Mahindra has been testing the Thar 5 Door for a very long time and we know for sure that it won’t launch in the early 2024 since they’ve their hands full with the XUV300 Facelift, XUV300 EV, and XUV400 EV. It only makes sense to launch the Off-road SUV after June 2024, likely in July or August. The Thar 5 Door offers way more space and off-road capabilities than the 3 Door Version. The exterior features H-pattern grille, round LED Headlamps with DRLs inside, LED fog lamps on the bumpers, fixed roof with sunroof, and pull tailgate with rear windshield possibly could be opened.
The Thar 5 Door will retain 2 Engine Options from the 3 Door versions – 2.0 L Turbo Petrol and 2.2 L Diesel Engine with 6 Speed Manual, and Automatic Gearbox. The SUV is built on the 3-Door’s ladder-frame chassis which will allow the 5 Door version to be spacious without the need of sacrificing its off-road capabilites. Moreover, it’ll be getting new features like 10.25-inch infotainment system, Scorpio-N like Semi-Digital Instrument Cluster, Armrests for Driver, Wireless Charging Pad, Limited Slip Differential, and so much more.
It’ll compete with the Maruti Jimny, and the upcoming 5-Door Force Gurkha.
Mahindra was seen testing the XUV700-based electric SUV, XUV.e8 which is said to launch in December 2024. The XUV.e8 will look slightly different over the ICE Version of XUV700 like closed front grille, slightly different bumpers, and tweaked taillamps. Moreover, the EV will get triple-screen layout for the luxurious experience with size likely to be of 10.25-inch. This triple screen layout is focused on three elements – one for co-passenger to watch Netflix and other stuff, center infotainment system for EV details, and the digital instrument cluster.
It could sport a 50 – 60 kWh battery pack to offer range of 500+ KMs. The XUV.e8 will compete with the upcoming Tata Harrier.ev and Safari.ev. More details of the electric SUV should be made public soon in the coming months.
