Bolero Holds Steady, XUV 3XO Faces Pressure
Bolero sales remained largely flat at 8,933 units, marginally lower than 8,942 units recorded in May 2025. Despite negligible decline, the rugged utility vehicle continued to contribute significantly with a 15.40% share. In contrast, XUV 3XO and XUV 3XO EV reported sales of 6,717 units, down 15.53% from 7,952 units sold last year. The compact SUV lost over 1,200 units YoY, making it one of the few Mahindra models to register a notable decline.
Electric SUV Portfolio Sales Grow

Among EVs, XEV 9e posted the strongest monthly growth of 20.36%, while XEV 9S increased by 8.02%. BE 6, however, declined by 22.91% compared to April.
Overall, Mahindra’s May 2026 performance was driven by continued strength of Scorpio, Thar and XUV 7XO, while its electric SUV portfolio maintained steady growth. With Sierra and additional EV launches expected to further intensify competition in the coming months, Mahindra remains one of the strongest players in India’s SUV market.
