Mahindra & Mahindra has introduced the e2oPlus electric hatchback with a price tag of Rs 5.46 lakh. The car will be available in four variants- P2 (commercial), P4, P6, and P8.

The e2oPlus also becomes the first model to sport the ‘Mahindra Electric’ branding.

The e2oPlus delivers decent performance for the city commute. The P8 variant is capable of 0-60kmph time of 9.5 seconds and a top speed of 85kmph. Dimension wise, the e2oPlus has grown drastically compared to the two-door e2o. It’s 310mm longer, 61mm wider and 25mm taller. Apart from this, the wheelbase has grown by 300mm.

Mahesh Babu, the CEO of Mahindra Electric, said on the occasion: “Our consumer is an urban city dweller who commutes daily. He wants a comfortable drive and not hassled by regular gear shifting and low maintenance costs. The cities have become congested and driving speeds have reduced a lot. Parking spaces have reduced too. We are working on building smart cities in collaboration with govt. Hence, we thought of a car which is city smart, reduces driving hassles, is affordable for longer commutes and solves other daily transportation problems. Hence, the e2oPlus was born.”
