After a long wait, Mahindra has taken the wraps off its two new EVs – the BE 6e and the XEV 9e. Among these, the Mahindra BE 6e is the first product from the carmaker’s newly established electric-only ‘BE’ sub-brand. With its aggressive design inside and out, the BE 6e stands out from the crowd of other EVs. Let’s take a closer look at the BE 6e with the help of 10 images:
Front
The Mahindra BE 6e features a sharp and aggressive front design with bold cuts and creases. The bonnet has a functional scoop for air intake and houses an illuminated ‘BE’ logo. It has horizontally stacked LED projector headlights surrounded by C-shaped LED DRLs. The grille is blanked off as is typical for EVs.
The bumper is black, with the section between the headlights and DRLs painted in the body colour. A silver skid plate, front parking sensors, and LED fog lamps round off the front design.
Side
The aggressive lines of the Mahindra BE 6e continue along its profile, highlighted by gloss black cladding over the wheel arches and running the length of the SUV. This cladding, with angular edges, features the ‘INGLO’ badge on the lower section of the rear door.
It gets flush-fitting handles for the front doors, while the rear door handles are seamlessly integrated into the C-pillar. It also gets contrasting elements with a black finish on the A- and B-pillars, and outside rearview mirrors. The SUV rides on 19-inch aerodynamically-designed alloy wheels, while Mahindra is also offering it with 20-inch units as an optional extra.
Rear
The Mahindra BE 6e gets C-shaped LED tail lights like the front LED DRLs. The tailgate features an ‘Infinite Possibilities’ logo, exclusive to Mahindra EVs. The boot has a protruding design with a bootlip spoiler, and another spoiler is placed above the rear windshield.
The black rear bumper houses the rear parking sensors and includes two silver skid plates with integrated reflectors.

Boot Space And Frunk
The Mahindra BE 6e offers a 455-litre boot space. It also features a 45-litre storage area under the bonnet, commonly known as a frunk (front trunk).
Interior
The interior of the Mahindra BE 6e gets a dual-tone theme. It features a 2-spoke steering wheel, adorned with an illuminated ‘BE’ logo. Behind the wheel are two free-standing screens housed under a single glass panel, complemented by an augmented reality (AR) based heads-up display.
The Mahindra BE 6e features a curved trim extending from the dashboard to the centre console, giving it a cockpit-like feel. This gloss-black console houses the driver’s AC vents and divides the cabin into two sections.
The Mahindra BE 6e's seats feature a blend of fabric and leatherette upholstery with adjustable headrests for all passengers. The doors are finished in the cabin's theme, and the inside door handles are uniquely designed as fabric pull-type tabs.
The Mahindra BE 6e comes with a host of features like dual-zone AC, a panoramic glass roof with coloured lighting, and a 16-speaker Harman Kardon sound system. For safety, it offers 7 airbags (6 as standard), park assist, a 360-degree camera and Level 2 ADAS with features like autonomous emergency braking and driver drowsiness detection.
