The Mahindra XEV 9e and Tata Harrier EV are two premium electric SUVs in India, but their dimensions reflect different design priorities. The Mahindra XEV 9e features a coupe-inspired profile and a longer wheelbase, while the Tata Harrier EV has a more traditional SUV cars shape and a taller body.
If you are comparing these electric SUVs for road presence, cabin proportions, parking and luggage capacity, here is how their dimensions stack up.

The Mahindra XEV 9e measures 4,789 mm in length, while the Tata Harrier EV measures 4,607 mm. This makes the XEV 9e 182 mm longer than the Harrier EV.
The XEV 9e’s greater length gives it a larger overall footprint on the road. However, exterior length alone does not determine passenger comfort, as seat design, cabin layout and interior packaging also matter.
The Tata Harrier EV has a listed body width of approximately 1,922 mm, compared with 1,907 mm for the Mahindra XEV 9e. On these figures, the Harrier EV is 15 mm wider.
The difference is small, but width can influence the feeling of space across the cabin. A wider vehicle may also require more care when navigating narrow streets and parking spaces.
Note: Published figures can differ depending on whether the measurement includes exterior mirrors. The comparison above uses body-width figures.
The Tata Harrier EV stands 1,740 mm tall, while the Mahindra XEV 9e measures 1,694 mm. The Harrier EV is therefore 46 mm taller.
Its taller body gives the Harrier EV a more upright SUV stance. The XEV 9e has a lower, coupe-inspired roofline, which contributes to its sportier exterior design. Actual headroom and ease of entry depend on the cabin layout and seating position.
The Mahindra XEV 9e has a 2,775 mm wheelbase, compared with 2,741 mm for the Tata Harrier EV. The Mahindra has a 34 mm longer wheelbase.
Wheelbase is the distance between the front and rear wheels. It can affect cabin packaging, legroom potential and driving stability, although it does not guarantee more rear-seat space by itself.
The XEV 9e offers 663 litres of boot space and an additional 150-litre front storage compartment. The Harrier EV provides 502 litres of boot space and a 35-litre front trunk, according to the cited specifications.
That gives the XEV 9e a 161-litre advantage in stated rear boot capacity. Its larger luggage capacity may appeal to families who regularly carry suitcases, shopping or travel equipment.
The Mahindra also lists 207 mm of unladen ground clearance, increasing to 218 mm at the battery. A directly comparable ground-clearance figure was not available in the cited Harrier EV specification sheet, so a definitive winner on this measure cannot be declared here.
