Tata Harrier EV Vs Mahindra XEV 9E Drag Race: Internet Divided On Results
There are two Indian brands working hard to bring innovative products to the Indian audience's disposal - Tata Motors and Mahindra. The former has recently launched the first-ever Indigenous AWD electric SUV, Harrier EV. On the other hand, Mahindra showcased its capability in the form of BE 6 and XEV 9E. While both of these SUVs are boasting roughly similar numbers for the 0-100 kmph sprint, the real-world results turn out to be different. We haven't done a 0-100 kmph time run for both of these cars next to each other, but someone has. The video embedded below shows the Harrier EV racing against the XEV 9E. The video was uploaded on YouTube, and it seems to have been shot during the Harrier EV's Quad Day exercise. This is where the company showcased the electric Harrier's off-roading capabilities. In fact, Tata Motors took participants on a taxi lap at the Buddh International Circuit, showcasing the SUV's handling and acceleration capabilities. Nevertheless, in the video here, the Harrier EV can be seen zooming past the XEV 9E in the drag race. Talking of their performance, the top-spec Tata Harrier EV comes with a 75 kWh battery with a peak power output of 238 Hp and a 0-100 kmph timing of 6.3 seconds. On the other hand, the range-topping variant of the Mahindra XEV 9E gets a 79 kWh battery pack, churning out 282 Hp. It helps it with a 0-100 kmph timing of 6.8 seconds.

Tata Motors races to regain EV dominance with Harrier.ev launch as rivals gain ground
Tata Motors on Tuesday launched the much-awaited in an effort to strengthen its position in India's electric vehicle (EV) market. The move comes as rival carmakers such as JSW MG Motor and Mahindra & Mahindra ramp up their EV offerings, chipping away at Tata's once-dominant market share. Just a year ago, Tata Motors commanded 73% of India's electric passenger vehicle market. However, a surge in rival launches and their quick adoption by EV buyers has eroded Tata's lead, making the a crucial addition to its lineup. Tata Motors' electric car sales fell 15% in May 2025 as it delivered 4,316 units compared to 5,083 in the same month last year. This decline reduced its share in the small but fast-growing EV market to 35%. In contrast, JSW MG Motor India's share in this segment rose to 30% share as its sales, thanks to the high demand for its Windsor model, grew by 159% year-on-year to 3,737 units. Mahindra & Mahindra, which commenced deliveries of the BE 6 and XEV 9E in March this year, sold 2,605 EVs in May 2025, boosting its market share to 21%. The company has delivered 10,000 units of these models since deliveries began on March 20. Tata Motors Passenger Vehicle and Tata Passenger Electric Mobility Managing Director Shailesh Chandra recently said that they have aspirations to have more than 50% market share in the EV market in the mid-to-long term. 'We would aspire to be at a 50 per cent market share by having a very wide product portfolio and products which are aligned to the expectation of the customers,' he stated.
