Published on: November 28, 2025

Overview

The Mahindra BE 6 Formula E Edition is a limited-run, motorsport-inspired electric SUV launched in November 2025. It features a 79 kWh battery, a 682 km ARAI range, 285 PS power, unique orange accents, FIA branding, and special launch perks—priced from ₹23.69 lakh.

Introduction

Mahindra has taken its electric SUV game to the next level with the launch of the BE 6 Formula E Edition on November 27, 2025. Celebrating the brand’s success in the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, this special edition is more than just a badge—it’s a bold fusion of racing DNA and premium electric mobility.

Unlike the standard BE 6, the Formula E Edition comes exclusively with the larger 79 kWh battery, enhanced styling, exclusive interior accents, and collector-worthy features like an FIA-branded plaque and race-inspired startup animations. With only 999 units planned and early-bird perks like a track day with F1 reserve driver Kush Maini, this edition is designed for true EV enthusiasts.

Interior Features & Comfort

Inside, the cabin amplifies the race-car feel without sacrificing daily usability:

Orange stitching and Formula E logos embroidered on seats
Contrast orange inserts on dash, doors, and center console
FIA-certified plaque with limited-edition badging
Rugged flip-up cover over the start/stop button (just like a race car!)
Translucent door panels and carbon-finish trim (non-structural, but stylish)
Vertical stripe pattern on the fixed glass sunroof
Formula E-branded seatbelts in high-visibility orange
Dual 12.3-inch screens, 16-speaker Harman Kardon audio, wireless charging
Driver-focused cockpit with jet-inspired gear selector and fabric door pulls

Despite its sporty theme, comfort remains high—plush seats, dual-zone climate control, ample rear legroom, and premium soft-touch materials ensure it’s still a practical family SUV.
