Mahindra has officially launched the XEV 9e and BE 6e, two highly anticipated electric vehicles under its new XUV and BE sub-brands. Both models aim to shake up the EV market with innovative features, bold designs, and competitive powertrains that rival premium offerings like the Mercedes-Benz EQA and BMW iX1. The Mahindra’s BE 6e electric SUV comes with an introductory price of Rs 18.90 lakh (ex-showroom) and the XEV 9e has an introductory price of Rs 21.90 lakh (ex-showroom).
The Mahindra XEV 9e features a front design with an upright bonnet and Mahindra’s illuminated Infinity logo. It has connected LED DRLs flowing into vertically stacked projector headlights, a blanked-off grille, and a black lower bumper with LED fog lamps and an air inlet. The side profile includes a sloping roofline, flush door handles, and black cladding along the wheel arches. Body-coloured ORVMs and dual-tone aerodynamic alloy wheels complete the look. The rear styling includes a connected inverted U-shaped LED tail light and an illuminated Infinity logo on the tailgate, with a chrome-accented black bumper.
The Mahindra BE 6e comes with a more angular bonnet with sharp creases and an illuminated BE logo. It has horizontally stacked projector headlights paired with unique C-shaped LED DRLs. The black lower bumper includes LED fog lamps and a silver skid plate. The side profile features more pronounced wheel arches with black cladding, flush door handles on the front doors, and integrated rear handles on the C-pillar. Black accents are applied to the ORVMs and pillars. The rear styling includes tail lights mirroring the C-shaped DRLs but lacking a connecting light bar, with an illuminated BE logo and an aggressively styled black bumper.
