Mahindra conducts a live crash test of the XEV 9e electric SUV

28 Nov 2024, 06:12 PM

Mahindra has conducted a live EV crash test on the XEV 9e, showcasing its robust safety credentials at its Tamil Nadu Passive Safety lab.

This makes Mahindra the first Indian original equipment manufacturer (OEM) to perform a live crash test on an EV.

The XUV 9e underwent a frontal 40% offset deformable barrier crash test at 64 km/h. This specific test simulates a common type of real-world collision.

The results were significant: the airbags deployed as expected, and the occupant cage remained intact, showcasing the vehicle’s structural integrity and advanced safety features.

To reinforce safety, Mahindra conducted several battery resilience tests. A live battery cell withstood a nail penetration test without catastrophic failure, retained its integrity during a fire resistance test, and survived a crush test with a 22-ton truck driven over it.

While the vehicle is yet to undergo Global NCAP testing, the company’s internal evaluations suggest a strong likelihood of achieving a top safety rating.

Additionally, the vehicle supports ultra-fast charging, with a 20–80% charge achievable in just 20 minutes using a 175 kW charger.
