The move Tata Punch EV retained the overall lead at **62%** citation share, up 1.8 percentage points from the previous edition, leading on Gemini (**62.8%**, rank 1) and Google AI Mode (**69.8%**, rank 1), while Mahindra BE 6 continues to own ChatGPT at **58.1%** (rank 1) versus Tata Punch EV's **53.5%** (rank 3) on that engine. Mahindra XEV 9e is the biggest mover, falling 11.7 percentage points to **41.1%**, with declines visible on ChatGPT (**39.5%**, rank 4), Gemini (**51.2%**, rank 4), and AI Mode (**32.6%**, rank 5) simultaneously. The 35-domain citation pool expansion today included jdpower.com, allaboutevs.com, bijliwaligaadi.com, and reddit.com/r/EVIndia, all of which introduce broader model comparisons that may de-emphasize any single SUV-segment entrant. What it means The electric-cars vertical is fragmented at **62%** for the leader, well below the near-lock threshold, so citation share is actively contested across the top four. The XEV 9e decline is the most structurally significant move: it fell on all three engines simultaneously rather than on one, which rules out a single-engine sampling artifact and points to a pool-level mechanism. The comparison and community publishers entering today, particularly jdpower.com and allaboutevs.com, are the most plausible driver, as they publish cross-model comparisons that tend to elevate volume leaders over premium-segment entrants. Mahindra should audit XEV 9e coverage on newly entered comparison domains; if the brand is absent or lightly covered on those publishers, that is the structural gap to close. The Tata Punch EV lead rests on Gemini and AI Mode; ChatGPT remains the most accessible engine for any brand seeking to challenge it, given Mahindra BE 6 already leads there and Tata Punch EV's ChatGPT share (**53.5%**) is the weakest of its three engines.
