Mahindra Treo Plus

Launched in 2018, Mahindra Treo Plus is the best-selling electric auto in India. With a running cost of just 10 paise per kilometre, this electric auto is trusted by 50,000 drivers for their daily income.

Mahindra Treo Plus Price On Road and Ex-Showroom

Mahindra Treo Plus price in India starts at ₹3.69 lakh and goes upto ₹3.78 lakh for its metal bodied variant. Mahidnra Treo Plus on road price comes between ₹4 lakh to ₹4.13 lakh which includes RTO registration, insurance, road tax and handling.

Also due to the recent oil crisis and evolving EV infrastructure, many state governments like Delhi, UP, Maharashtra are offering higher subsidies for electric vehicles. Meaning, the total on road price and EMI interest rate of Mahindra Treo Plus can come significantly lower.

Mahindra Treo Plus EMI Cost

Most Mahindra Last Mile Mobility (MLMM) dealers tie up with Mahindra Finance, Cholamandalam, and Tata Capital for the Treo Plus EMI. The standard quote you'll get is around ₹7,134 per month at 10.5% interest over 60 months, with a down payment of about ₹37,000.

Push the tenure shorter or the down payment higher and the numbers move sensibly. You can calculate the total Mahindra Treo Plus EMI using TruckOnWheels EMI Calculator.

Mahindra Treo Plus Variant Options and Their Price

The Treo Plus comes in two variants with two body styles respectively. Same battery, same motor, same 150 km range.

What changes is what's wrapped around the auto.

Mahindra Treo Plus 2073 SFT Variant

The Mahindra Treo Plus 2073 SFT variant is priced at ₹3.69 lakh. It is a lighter, traditional auto-rickshaw with a weather-resistant flex canopy roof. It's the value pick. If you mostly run in dry-climate cities and want to keep upfront cash low, this is the variant to book. GVW is 720 kg.

Mahindra Treo Plus 2073 HRT Variant

The Mahindra Treo Plus 2073 HRT variant is a metal-bodied version and is priced at ₹3.78 lakh. It was launched in April 2024 after years of customer feedback. The extra ₹9,000 buys you better structural strength, real protection in heavy monsoon, longer body life over a 5-year ownership window, and a more car-like cabin feel. If you operate in any heavy-rain city, the HRT is the only sensible choice. The body simply lasts longer and resale holds up better.

Mahindra Treo Plus Range, Battery & Motor Specifications

The Treo Plus comes with the biggest battery in this segment — a 10.24 kWh lithium-ion pack, paired with an 8 kW electric motor that delivers 42 Nm of peak torque.

For single-shift drivers, 150 km range of the Treo Plus covers a full day's earning route. For two-shift fleet operations, the charging time is where the concern might arise. A full charge takes 4.5 hours on the included 15A off-board charger, and there's no fast-charge option. Run two shifts and you either need a battery-swap arrangement or accept a midday gap of about 90 minutes for a partial top-up. It's the single biggest operational limitation Mahindra hasn't addressed yet.

Mahindra Treo comes with two driving modes:

1. Economy for maximum range, and
2. Boost for full passenger loads and uphill pulls. 

Top speed is capped at 55 km/h, which rules out inter-city or highway sections of your route. Gradeability is 12°, enough for flyovers and most urban climbs but tight on routes with sustained steep hill sections.

The suspension setup is classic commercial-grade. Helical spring with hydraulic shock absorber and damper up front, rigid axle with leaf spring and hydraulic damper at the rear. Durable, predictable, easy to find spares at any roadside garage. Braking is by hydraulic drum on both front and rear (cheap to maintain) but you don't get the stopping power of a front disc setup, which is worth noting if you carry full passenger loads on downhill stretches.

Interior and Cabin Features

The Treo Plus has the longest wheelbase in its category at 2073 mm. Passenger legroom is 465 mm, driver legroom is 345 mm. This is more than most autos in this segment can claim.

Seating capacity is D+3 (Diver and 3 passengers in the backseat). Layout with cushioned bench seats in fabric upholstery. 

The driver gets a lockable glove box, a 12V mobile charging socket, bright cabin lights for night pickups, and Hill Hold Assist that stops the auto from rolling back on inclines. Passengers get a roof-mounted grab handle bar.

There's no traditional infotainment system. No touchscreen, no built-in music player. What you do get is the NEMO driver app on your phone, which handles remote tracking of range, charging status, trip economy, and navigation. For fleet owners running multiple autos, NEMO is what you need to manage your fleet operations.

Mahindra Treo Plus Dimensions

Overall dimensions of Mahindra Treo Plus are 2769 mm long, 1350 mm wide, and 1750 mm tall. It is compact for narrow Indian lanes but tall enough for a comfortable cabin. 

Ground clearance is 142 mm, which clears most pothole-broken city roads without scraping. Turning radius is a tight 2.9 m, useful for U-turns on standard roads and navigating crowded mandi and station bays.

Tyres are 3.75 × 12 4PR 66E. Bog-standard commercial sizing, available at any tyre dealer across India. No premium-pricing surprises when you need a replacement.

Mahindra Treo Plus Colour Options

Mahindra Treo Plus is available in four colour options: 1. Typical Black & Yellow, 2. Dual-tone Blue & White, 3. Signature Blue, and 4. Purple.

Black & yellow or blue is usually a common choice of drivers. And the combination of blue and white is the signature colour option of the Mahindra Treo Plus. While purple is a standout colour option.

Mahindra Treo Plus Safety Features

The Treo Plus carries the AIS156 fire-safety certification on its battery. Most cheap lead-acid e-rickshaws skip this. But Treo Plus doesn't.

The motor is IP67-rated (fully dust and waterproof), which matters in monsoon when half of urban India floods. Hydraulic drum brakes front and rear with a handbrake handle the stops. Hazard indicator, spare wheel, jack, and roadside assistance are standard.

Also the metal-body HRT variant of Treo Plus qualifies for Mahindra's UDAY programme, which offers a ₹10 lakh accident insurance cover for the first year. Ask your dealer for it.

Mahindra Treo Plus Warranty & Insurance

Mahindra offers a 5-year or 1,20,000 km warranty on the Treo Plus (whichever comes first). This covers the vehicle and the battery pack. The off-board charger also has its own separate 3-year warranty with IP67 protection.

Service is where Mahindra Last Mile Mobility quietly wins this category. Mahindra runs one of the largest three-wheeler service networks in India. Before you buy, check there's an authorised service centre within 15-20 km of where you operate. A stranded e-auto without a nearby service point is one day's earnings lost, every single time.
