Hope that is true. Any experts here who can shed light on when that would come or whether it would ?
I was hoping to replace my trailhawk with this / Be rall-E in early 2026.
The architecture supports it, but they didn't launch it in their initial cars. It can come in BE 6E in the future.

My guess is that the AWD will come in the XEV 8e (along with ICE counterpart XUV 7XO) on 15th Aug 2025.

I wonder what Indigo have to say for their trademark infringement (6E is their carrier code). Though it belongs to a separate category, wont it still be stepping on their brand trademark?

Good:
- Radical design, people these days like radical design more than the conventional ones
- Born EV with nice battery capacity, user interface, full packed features
- Assuring battery warranties

Need to be checked in Future:

- Niggles, reliability and safety of these new gen cars
- Potentially expensive higher variant with full fledge features
- The biggest concern i have is after sales service. The ICE cars have not come to a service level of global OEMs and these EVs are really very very complex to fix
- Loads of Electronics

Its nice to see Indian OEMs coming neck to neck with Chinese OEMs in terms of features. It would be really interesting to also see how our market will adopt these cars, whether these new cars can bump up the demand of EVs considering our poor charging infrastructure. Mahindra has left the cat out of the bag, lets see how customer would response.

Personally i would touch these M&M EV cars only after 2 years from launch.

BOLD DESIGNS from Mahindra. 9E doesn't work on me that well but 6E looks good from outside. A bit different & quirky.

Going by the initial comments, I think I might be the minority here but I don't think the cars are well thought out from a practicality perspective. I did get that initial rush to type in but instead gave me sometime to think about it:
  • I absolutely hate that there are very few physical buttons in the car
  • I also hate the piano black treatment everywhere. Will be a pain to maintain in the long run. Especially those wheel arches & both sides of the vehicle. Dust, fingerprint & scratch magnet.
  • Does the rear seat of 6E look comfortable to anyone? From the pictures it looks claustrophobic. And how does one rest their arms there? Will be surprised if people actually find that comfortable for long journeys.

I will wait for Mahindra to reveal more about price, variants & feature distribution before passing more judgements

Great design and features and good pricing too! I love the XEV 9E. It is a norm for Mahindra and Tata these days to bring in quality products one after the other. Very happy to see Indian brands shining!

As per my understanding, the warranty is applicable for first buyers only, however your statement says it otherwise? Does that mean there will be no market for used BE-6E and XEV-9E.
If this is true then it is a downer coz lots of people go for company lease car on a tenure of 3 or 4-years. After which, either they become 2nd owner if they choose to, or they can sell if off. If warranty is not carried forward, then car will be useless after those 3 or 4-years.

Let me say it out loud. I really hate EVs. But, great looking RWD monocoque with a decent range at around 20L has got me thinking about it, especially the RWD part (since most of the planet is on FWD).

Oh but the range anxiety, plus long waiting times for charging.

Any chance that there will be similar ICE vehicles by M&M (i.e. monocoque and RWD)?

Exterior styling is radical and will take some time getting used to. The interiors looks futuristic. With all the cars banking on the 'wow' factor nowadays, this looks promising!

Fantastic job by Mahindra!
I just love the way BE 6E looks! I am sure it will be a head turner on Indian roads. RWD, drift video has excited me.
The DRLs are overdone for my taste.
I am eagerly waiting to see it in person at the Mahindra showroom.

One thing I admire about Mahindra is that when they launch a product, the media drives happen simultaneously, and the reviews are out within a day or two. This really helps interested buyers decide whether to wait for the car or move on.

I remember how Tata delayed the Curvv’s reviews for weeks with extended embargo dates. It wasn’t until mid-November that the test drive cars finally reached showrooms, despite the official launch happening in August

Might be off-topic , but what do you guys think that Tata will do. I believe they that they weren't planning to face such an aggressive undercut in pricing. Will the AWD Dual motor be able to justify its premium.

What about the Sierra EV as well, they are definitely gonna have to match the Be 6e's price for it to be successful

Tata will have a hard time matching these specs and features with the Harrier EV and Sierra EV.

Too much tech to handle. I may get trolled on this but I'm anyways going to ask fellow enthusiasts and doctors on this forum about the health risks posed by these big screens inside the car(especially blue light emitting from them) which in my opinion mimic the smartphone and ruin the driving pleasure to some extent. Does it hamper concentration while driving?
