November saw the introduction of multiple new models, with much attention drawn to Mahindra's new all-electric offerings
The month of November continued this year's excitement of new model introductions, including the Skoda Kylaq along with Mahindra’s XEV 9e and BE 6e. While the Kylaq is the latest model that enters the subcompact SUV segment, Mahindra’s duo adds to the growing electric car market. And that’s not all, as a few luxury carmakers also joined into the action. Here’s a detailed overview of all the cars launched in November 2024.
Maruti Suzuki Dzire
We finally got the new-gen Dzire, which, although based on the fourth-gen Swift, looks completely different from it. Design updates include a wide grille, sleek LED DRLs, new 15-inch alloy wheels, and a Y-shaped pattern in the LED tail lights.
The interior of the 2024 Dzire features a layout similar to that of the Swift, but with a different black and beige color scheme. Feature highlights include a 9-inch touchscreen, a wireless phone charger, a 360-degree camera, and six airbags as standard. It also scored a five-star safety rating in the Global NCAP crash tests, a first for a Maruti. It is offered with a new 82 PS/112 Nm 1.2-litre 3-cylinder petrol engine, paired with a 5-speed manual or 5-speed AMT gearbox. Prices for the 2024 Dzire range from Rs 6.79 lakh to Rs 10.14 lakh (introductory ex-showroom).
Skoda Kylaq
Skoda officially launched the Kylaq with a starting price of Rs 7.89 lakh (introductory ex-showroom). However, the Czech carmaker will announce the SUV’s full pricing on December 2, with deliveries set to begin from January 2025. The Kylaq will compete with other sub-4m SUVs like the Tata Nexon, Mahindra XUV 3XO, and Maruti Brezza.
It features a split headlight setup, 17-inch dual-tone alloy wheels, and wraparound LED tail lights. It also boasts one of the longest wheelbases in its segment at 2,566 mm. Inside, the Kylaq shares many design elements with the Kushaq’s interior and comes equipped with tech like a 10-inch infotainment system, automatic climate control, powered front seats with ventilation, keyless entry, and a single-pane sunroof. It is powered by a 115 PS/ 178 Nm 1-litre turbo-petrol engine, paired with either a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed torque converter automatic transmission.
Mahindra BE 6e
Having earlier revealed its concept form, Mahindra launched the production-ready BE 6e with a starting price of Rs 18.90 lakh (introductory ex-showroom). It is a part of Mahindra's new EV-specific 'Born Electric' sub-brand and is built on the carmaker's INGLO platform, designed specifically for EVs. The BE 6e is offered with two battery pack options – 59 kWh and 79 kWh –, both configured with a rear-wheel drivetrain (RWD) only. The 59 kWh unit is paired with a 231 PS electric motor, delivering an MIDC-claimed range of 535 km, while the 79 kWh unit is mated to a 286 PS electric motor, offering an MIDC-claimed range of 682 km.
Feature-wise, the BE 6e comes with a dual-display setup for the infotainment system and digital driver's display, an illuminated fixed panoramic glass roof, a 16-speaker Harman Kardon sound system, dual wireless phone chargers, dual-zone climate control, and ventilated front-row seats. Safety features include Level-2 advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), a 360-degree camera system, and 7 airbags.
Mahindra XEV 9e
Mahindra also launched the XEV 9e, which starts at Rs 21.90 lakh (ex-showroom). Like the BE 6e, its complete pricing is yet to be disclosed. The XEV 9e also shares most of its features with the BE 6e, including battery pack options. Inside, it features a triple-screen layout with an entertainment screen for the front passenger.
The XEV 9e’s 59 kWh battery pack is paired with the same 231 PS electric motor, and the 79 kWh battery pack is also mated to the same 286 PS electric motor, however with different range figures. The claimed range is 542 km with the smaller battery pack and 656 km with the larger unit. Both options currently come with a RWD setup, with an all-wheel drive (AWD) configuration expected soon.
