The electric SCV has a top speed of 60 kmph and a maximum payload capacity of 765 kg. With a DC fast charger, Zeo can be charged to give a range of 100 km range in 60 minutes.

Mahindra Last Mile Mobility has also taken care to offer a 'creep' function on the Zeo which allows the vehicle to move forward at speed of up to 8 kmph in bumper-to-bumper traffic, where the driver has to just lift his foot off the brake. The Zeo SCV can ascend gradients of up to 32 per cent. A low turning radius of 4.3 metres makes the vehicle manoeuvrable on traffic laden roads.
Interior features include a fully digital instrument console, dial for transmission, type-C charging port and a lockable glovebox. Mahindra also offers few ADAS functions like lane departure warning, Headway monitoring, Driver Behaviour Analysis, Pedestrian Collision and other functions. There is an AI powered camera as well.
The Mahindra ZEO comes with the advanced 'NEMO' telematics unit. Through the 'NEMO' Driver or NEMO Fleet Management System apps, customers can access real-time data to optimise performance, and efficiency.
