Mahindra BE 6 Overview

The Mahindra BE 6 is built on Mahindra's in-house INGLO platform. It sits in the mid-size electric SUV space but takes a distinctly sportier shape than most of its competition.
On the outside, it follows a fastback-style silhouette with a sloping roofline, flush door handles on higher variants, and a two-tone cladding finish. The front end uses bi-LED headlamps with DRLs on most trims, while the upper variants get the more distinctive C-shaped LED DRL signature.
Inside, every variant gets twin 12.3-inch screens in a floating layout, paired with Mahindra's MAIA software platform. Higher trims bring in a 16-speaker Harman Kardon system, leatherette upholstery, and an AR-based head-up display.
Power comes from a rear-mounted electric motor paired with either a 59 kWh or 79 kWh battery, claiming ARAI ranges of 556 km and 682 km respectively. The BE 6 earned a 5-star Bharat NCAP rating, scoring 31.97 out of 32 for adult occupant protection.
It is available in seven exterior colours, with five variants in the lineup.
