Do most of you charge on standard 3KW socket which typically has 2.5 sq mm cable by default in most Indian homes? Have any of you done any specific upgrades for routine (daily) slow charging overnight?

How are you managing traveling to remote places like mountains etc and charging there in home stays and guest houses? Do you trust their electric infra or are you scared something may fuse or get burnt? My guess would be that most guest houses and hotels use better quality and high sq mm cables than homes because multiple appliances can run simultaneously such as water heaters, ACs and heaters, kettles etc and they would ideally go overboard with protections. I am thinking of buying Wunder Current’s 35 meters extension. What are you guys using? Since electricity is pretty much everywhere, requesting someone for slow charging point is always better albeit a time consuming option in case you are stuck. Remote places: Tirthan Valley, Barot, Rajgundha, Auli etc.

How does door handle mechanism work on Pack One Above and Pack 2 Above? I understand it a two step process when unlocking the car:

Step 1) Push the handle to make it jut out
Step 2) Pull the handle to open the door

My question is, how does it close flush once you are inside the car and start driving? Is that operation electrically controlled? If yes, does it mean it contains a relay of sorts which can be upgraded or swapped with P3 relay to achieve auto extend and auto retract?

Second question: What is the service interval and can someone post what all is covered under servicing as per user manual for the next 3-5 years? I am assuming nothing really needs periodic replacement unless broken and things like cabin filter can be user replaced. I was able to service my previous diesel SUV myself so wondering what all EVs have under maintenance. Software update could be one thing but I heard Mahindra sends all software updates OTA?

Need to buy two TVs for our new home. Distance is 10 feet for 75 inch with 80K budget and 13 feet for 85 inch with 1.30L budget. Looking at TCL T8C/T89C for both. In Gurgaon. Any other TVs that fit in my budget and are much better quality than this model? I will eventually install a home theater or a sound bar and ideally get Apple TV box or at least Firestick 4K as I am used to it. Confused if TCL is indeed the best to grab in the upcoming Prime day sale.

Taking delivery of 79 KW P2A soon, NCH. Although I will take the team BHP PDI checklist with me but what are the known issues (that have been fixed thru software updates) should I look out for?

What’s the latest software update (will take delivery on 20 June 2026)?

The issue with Google Maps on drivers screen and subwoofer cutting off above a certain level, have these been resolved?

Can the lounge tray be fixed in P2A? I am interested in 3D mats, tray type - how much do they cost and are they worth it? I am not going for any other accessories. Yup, not even mud flaps.

Anything in particular I should be careful of?

I am taking delivery from a different city (Raj Vehicles, Chandigarh) and will be driving to Amritsar and then to Gurgaon so don’t want to have regrets during that longish road trip. Immediate road trip of almost 800 KM.

Does anyone know how much commission does a sales consultant stand to make from let’s say a sale of XEV 9S and from selling accessories and insurance? My sales guy has been very supportive and since I am opting for no accessories, my own insurance, I want to understand how much money does he stand to lose? I may consider rewarding him via a monetary ‘thank you’ gesture at he time of delivery. Thanks.
