Mahindra has made a bold and impressive debut in the electric vehicle space with the BE 6 — a futuristic SUV that combines cutting-edge tech, striking design, and strong performance.
As part of Mahindra’s Born Electric lineup, the BE 6 is built on the innovative INGLO platform and already has over 3,000 units on the road. With rising demand and a head-turning presence, it’s shaping up to be the next big thing in India’s EV market.
Design
The BE 6 completely breaks away from what we expect in a typical SUV. Outside, it boasts a sleek, aggressive design with flush door handles, sharp LED lighting, and large 19-inch dual-tone alloy wheels.
It looks like something straight out of a concept sketch, now brought to life. The whole silhouette screams modern, and it’s sure to draw glances wherever it goes.
Step inside, and the cabin feels like you’re entering the cockpit of a spaceship. You get twin 12.3-inch digital displays — one for the instrument cluster and the other for infotainment — all seamlessly integrated into a minimalist dashboard.
A 16-speaker Harman Kardon sound system ensures your music sounds as premium as the car feels, while a panoramic sunroof and ambient lighting take comfort to the next level.
Performance
Mahindra offers two battery pack options for the BE 6 to cater to different needs. The 59 kWh version offers an impressive range of 535 km, perfect for daily drives and weekend getaways.
If range anxiety is your concern, the larger 79 kWh battery stretches that up to a whopping 682 km on a single charge — one of the highest in its segment.
Top-spec variants (known as Pack 3) are powered by a motor that delivers 282 bhp and 380 Nm of torque. This isn’t just good for straight-line speed but also ensures a refined, quiet, and smooth driving experience. It’s electric, but it still has the thrill of a performance SUV.
Technology
The BE 6 is loaded with some of the most advanced features Mahindra has ever offered. It comes equipped with Level 2+ ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) that include features like adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, and emergency braking.
A 360-degree camera helps with parking in tight spots, and the VisionX augmented reality head-up display overlays essential info right onto your view — making you feel like you’re driving a next-gen machine.
One cool addition is the ‘Default’ drive mode. It simulates the behavior of traditional petrol and diesel engines, making the switch to EVs easier for those trying one for the first time. It’s Mahindra’s way of saying — we’ve thought of everything.
Pricing
Priced between ₹18.90 lakh to ₹26.90 lakh (ex-showroom), the BE 6 is positioned as a premium electric SUV but offers features and performance that go well beyond the price tag.
With waiting periods already stretching to six months in some regions, the demand is sky-high. Mahindra is working overtime to ramp up production and meet this growing enthusiasm.
Whether you’re stepping into EV territory for the first time or looking to upgrade to a high-tech SUV, the BE 6 is designed to impress and built to perform.
