The BE 6 e comes with a sharp design, featuring the brand’s new illuminated logo and closed-off front grille. The Mahindra BE 6e offers an angular bonnet design with aggressive cuts and creases. It gets LED projector headlights as well, but these are horizontally stacked. Moreover, there is an air duct between the lights that helps in cooling the battery pack.
The front showcases a dual-tone theme with glossy finish for the bumper and closed-off grille. While, from the side, the electric SUV offers a high-deck rear with the coupe roofline and a wraparound glasshouse, which also give it a very distinct silhouette, but that seems to have pinched the rear window line, compromising the view out. The wheel arches are more flared on the BE 6e, and the ORVMs, A-, B-, and C-pillars are given a black shade.
At the rear, the BE 6e gets LED taillights connected by an LED lightbar, a split rear spoiler, and a bumper with an integrated diffuser. The SUV rides on 19-inch aerodynamic wheels as standard, but customers will have the option to upgrade to 20-inch rims.
The BE 6e measures 4371mm in length, 1907mm in width, and 1627mm in height, and it has a wheelbase of 2775mm. The XEV 9e measures 4,790mm in length, 1,905mm in width, and 1,690mm in height.
On the inside, the BE 6e features a cockpit-like split dashboard; there’s a panoramic screen that houses a driver’s display and the central touchscreen infotainment system; two-spoke flat-bottom steering wheels with an illuminated BE logo; and steering-mounted controls.
Mahindra BE 6e comes with pre-set themes of Calm, Cozy, and Club. Rear passengers can also enjoy the journey with the in-car infotainment screens provided at the back of the front seats.
On the features front, the new Mahindra BE 6e features multi-zone climate control, three drive modes, wireless phone charging, dual 12.3-inch floating screens, a panoramic sunroof, connected car technology, and an AI interface.
The BE 6e is available in four colors, which include Desert Myst, Everest White Satin, Firestorm Orange, and Tango Red.
The Mahindra BE 6e is offered with either a 59kWh or 79kWh LFP battery pack that is completely sealed off, and Mahindra claims it is resistant to fire, water, and vibrations. The 79kWh battery pack has an ARAI-certified MIDC range of 682km (claimed 500km+ in the real world) and a 20-80 percent charging time of 20 minutes (175kW DC).
The BE 6e has three drive modes: range, everyday, and race. Mahindra claims the electric SUV can complete the sprint from 0-100 km/h in 6.7 seconds.
