Surpassing expectations, it achieves a 0-100kmph acceleration in just 8.44 seconds, outpacing conventional rivals like the Volkswagen Virtus 1.5 DSG and Hyundai Verna 1.5 DCT. The XUV400 EV emerges as a silent yet potent contender on the road, challenging perceptions of electric vehicles.
2. Mahindra XUV700 2.0-litre P AT: 9.48s
Defying the stereotypes of a family SUV, the XUV700 with its 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine proves to be a speed enthusiast's delight. Boasting 200PS and 380Nm, it accelerates from 0 to 100kmph in a mere 9.48 seconds.

The diesel variant of the XUV700, equipped with a 2.2-litre engine generating 185PS/450Nm, clocks in at 9.67 seconds for the 0-100kmph sprint. Notably, the all-wheel-drive (AWD) version, limited to the 200PS diesel automatic, takes 10.09 seconds. The marginal time difference can be attributed to the AWD's heavier build.
