Mahindra BE 6 news

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

The automaker is not offering any dual-tone colour options with its new all-electric SUV

Prices of the Mahindra BE 6e with the smaller 59 kWh battery pack start from Rs 18.90 lakh (introductory ex-showroom, pan-India)

The XEV 9e and BE 6e SUVs have a coupe roofline and closely resemble their concept versions

The two EVs are slated to arrive at dealerships towards the end of January 2025, customer deliveries are set to begin between February and March 2025

The base-spec Mahindra XEV 9e and BE 6e come with a 59 kWh battery pack

Both are all-electric offerings featuring a sporty aesthetic, a minimalist interior, and an expected claimed range of around 500 km

Both of these electric origin SUVs are based on the all-new INGLO architecture

Both EVs will get a choice between two battery pack options but the claimed range is yet to be revealed

The XEV 9e features a triple-screen setup, while the BE 6e comes with dual integrated screens

Based on the latest spy shots, the BE.05 electric SUV will likely get an integrated screen setup, along with two-spoke steering wheel with illuminated ‘BE’ logo

The BE.05 is scheduled to enter the Indian markets in October 2025
