Auto news India - Mahindra Be 6 Sporteq news

The Pack Three variants will be the only trim on both EVs to come with two battery pack options

Both EVs are available for test drives in select cities with pan-India drives to open in February.

Starting with the second phase of the test drives, customers in Indore, Kolkata, and Lucknow can now experience both Mahindra EVs firsthand

The prices for the Mahindra BE 6 range from Rs 18.90 lakh to Rs 26.90 lakh (introductory, ex-showroom pan-India)

With these results, all electric offerings by Mahindra, including the XEV 9e and XUV400 EV have scored a 5-star safety rating from Bharat NCAP

Phase one of the test drives has begun, with phases two and three to follow soon

Currently, the SUV maker offers the top-end variants of both EVs with just the larger 79 kWh battery pack, which won’t be the case

Prices of the BE 6 range between Rs 18.90 lakh and Rs 26.90 lakh, while the XEV 9e is priced from Rs 21.90 lakh to Rs 30.50 lakh (ex-showroom pan-India)

The electric SUV will be available in three broad variants: Pack One, Pack Two and Pack Three

The BE 6 has not only created a segment of its own, but has challenged the industry with its outrageous design

Mahindra, while contesting the brand rights in court, has decided to rename the BE 6e to BE 6 and will continue to contest Indigo to secure the BE 6e name

The main highlight of the previous week was the launch of two new Mahindra EVs, along with the confirmed debut date of the upcoming Kia SUV

Both EVs come with two battery pack options mated to a fairly potent electric motor, but which one is better? We find out

The list includes quite a few luxury car features which have now been introduced with the XEV 9e and BE 6e

While the Mahindra BE 6e and XEV 9e share many similar features, their exterior and interior designs are radically different
