The Mahindra XEV 9E and BE 6E!









Mahindra is comparing the new EVs against the Luxury EVs!

[FourBanger]

It’s too early to say but the design looks too aggressive for an everyday car.

I mean those timeless designs are made for a reason because one love to keep car for many years.

These aggressive designs looks good for now but maybe couple of years down the line, the same design would not be liked much.

But again too early to call, hope it brings out a success story in Indian automotive and change the way for mass EV if priced well

Below par presentation and seem like a hotch-potch launch! and the release seems far away! (Benchmark vehicle, Tesla?)

XEV 9e, another story as Mahindra says:

Logo of the new XEV. The XEV 9e will be the first product under this brand.

Till now, it looks like just product reveal and no details etc. Guess we have to wait for some more time? I thought they were going to reveal the pricing and specs as well today.

So basically no one wants to make a regular looking born EV ? It has to be space crafty or cyber truck inspired for it to be a EV.

Mahindra's XEV 9e and BE 6e.

Mahindra & Mahindra has committed to an investment of over Rs 12,000 crore in its electric vehicle business. The company is setting up an all-new manufacturing line for EVs at its Chakan plant, which has an installed capacity of 1.2 lakh units per annum and is scalable.

Over 2,200 engineers have worked on the EV project for over three years to deliver four products, two of which – XEV 9e and BE 6e are being unveiled.

The company worked with over 168 suppliers, including 110 software suppliers. The Strategic Sourcing Unit developed over 5,000 tools to design the products.

Never have we achieved such a scale of operations. The production team has set up a completely brand-new body shop or the TCF line in Chakan to productionise these vehicles

Deliveries in Feb/March 2025:

500 km+ real world range is simply fantastic! If this really comes at whereabouts of 20L, it really could be thing that triggers a turnaround in favor of EVs against ICE!
