Mahindra has already inaugurated the first two Mahindra ChargeIN stations – one at Hoskote on NH75 along the Bengaluru-Chennai highway, and another at Murthal on NH44 near Delhi.
Each station includes two ultra-fast chargers capable of charging four electric vehicles simultaneously, marking a significant milestone in strengthening India’s national EV charging backbone.

Mahindra EV owners, including users of the XEV 9e and BE 6, can access the network via the Me4U app, which enables discovering charging stations, initiating charging, and completing payments.
Through Me4U, customers currently have access to nearly 34,000 public charging points provided by various Charge Point Operators, including Mahindra ChargeIN.

The company’s upcoming network will feature 180 kW dual-gun chargers engineered to deliver faster, more convenient charging for electric four-wheelers.
These chargers can power the Mahindra eSUV lineup – XEV 9e, BE 6, and the upcoming XEV 9S – from 20% to 80% in just 20 minutes, making long-distance EV travel practical and efficient.
