Mahindra BE 6e First Drive Impressions | India’s Whackiest Car, Period | Ziganalysis

[@tanmaysakpalofficial]

Theres just so many things to go about this car and yes lot of quirks here and there but just to put it out there, this COSTS about 1/4th of what a similarly speced foreign made car! JUST THE FACT THAT ITS COSTING 22-25L is INSANE! Hats off to Mahindra to go above and beyond !

[@chaitspraks1382]

Little bit Long Chat… but worth it ❤. The kid inside me says… cancel Kylaq top model and wait for 6E. But… you know… donno… 🤯

[@Reddylion]

Cancel kylaq pylaq.

[@KavitaDesai-s3q]

Congrats on the new car!

[@M365tunes]

Out of budget

[@StingSting844]

As the old wise men say, don't ever buy a first generation product

[@shrinathrathi10]

​@@StingSting844 technically this is 3rd gen electric from Mahindra after Revai and xuv400

[@SHVdok]

Superb analysis Tushar & Arun, awesome fellas…! I have booked the Thar Roxx but I seem to be drawn to the 6E…

[@zigwheels]

Thank you! The temptation is understandable but it is a completely different experience/use case vs the Thar Roxx

[@sunilshivashankaran7286]

Great video guys. Lots of details and info about the car. Really helpful. Cant wait for the drive to death video. Hope ul do it soon.

[@zigwheels]

Thank you, hope Mahindra gives us the cars at the earliest

[@balakrishnanselva1361]

Good effort from mahindra. Hope they will launch a practical version of the INDIGLO platform for general public.

[@sohandesai818]

Yes the P1 platform will power their more affordable models in future

[@deepaksaluja1]

​@@sohandesai818how is P1 different from inglo?

[@sohandesai818]

@deepaksaluja1 it's an iteration of that. Maybe stands for platform 1, so INGLO P1, P2 and so on

[@Artivule]

What is the definition of the practical version here ?

[@balakrishnanselva1361]

@Artivule which is easy to get in and out and has good headroom and thigh support for all passengers.

[@divyanshchaudhary9506]

Great work yall

[@arnabguha7021]

Awesome duo with their insights, humour and camaraderie!!! Would you suggest the 79Kwh or the 59Kwh version if one has mumbai to goa on their regular short holiday road trip list?

[@zigwheels]

Thank you! The 79kWh pack will definitely add a layer of comfort and outside of the road trip requirement, also widen charging gaps during regular usage. We’re trying to get both battery packs range tested together to extrapolate the difference in real world range as closely as possible but expect 120-150km of added range with the bigger battery per full charge.

[@Reddylion]

Good ev be 6e. Velusamy ji ❤ and team

[@karan.0034]

So how do you define ‘1st batch’ of cars

[@zigwheels]

Let’s say the ones sold in the first 6-8 months

[@indrajitbenake9313]

It's a long discussion, but guys you did it so well. Kudos . Covered almost everything with so ease

[@zigwheels]

Thank you 🙏 🙏

[@Ankurr-h4k]

Can I ask how many more be will come because be 08 will come which will be a 7 seater model of XUV 700 but how many mode will come what information do you have will any EV come around the budget of 15 lacs? Of Mahindra

[@DOctOrfuNNy007]

No the cheapest is the 6e

[@zigwheels]

The XUV e8 concept is supposed to turn into the XUV700 electric. The BE family starts with the BE 6e (or BE 6, now that the name has changed) and moves up from there to the BE 7 & 9 (which may become the BE 8 and Be 10 if Mahindra switches to even numbers like they did with the BE 6)

[@Ankurr-h4k]

@@zigwheels so they have 3 be vehicles planned 2 are already launched one is yet to launch? Isn't it or 1 more is going to come which will be in 2026?

[@danmathewluke5727]

I am yet to see the XUV/BE in the flesh and experience it but just listening to you and seeing everything online my product summary would be this. The 9e and 6e are DESI DESIRABLE LUXURY ELECTRIC cars that would not be out of place among other European, Japanese or Korean rivals! Great conversation ZigWheels.

[@Foxhunter-h6z]

Ex Powerdrifts ..Motor Inc 2.0 😃

[@MukeshDevavanathan]

That's what I thought😂

[@kabeerkore5751]

Good car. Expensive car even though the battery pack is Indian made compared to other EVs in this segment. Am I right? No rear wipers, also back seat headroom isn’t much for people 6feet tall.

[@drrohitkothari]

This car shifted my target from XUV 3XO top model (previously I was thinking of going for Kylaq top end) After this launch XUV 3XO AX7L doesn’t make too much of sense.

[@beastislive7174]

I think mahindra is doing exactly what tesla did with there model 3 in the EV market!! Sure fatega ye products, aaj nehi tow 1 saal mai this is going to sell a hell lot of numbers

[@alileevil]

Tesla had build a supercharging network and offered their initial models free charges for life. An EV car is incomplete without a charging network. Don't fall for the hype with this vehicle.

[@beastislive7174]

@@alileevil Tesla's first car, the Roadster, was delivered to customers in February 2008 but Tesla introduced its Supercharger network on September 24, 2012(4 saal ka faraq babu).....Its like network sim, 4g 100% coverage hone ke lia rook rahe the ki lelia tha than eventually within 4 yrs it got widespread(same here) already we have chargers(30kwh) in every popular route, just fast chargers install karne baki hai......2ndly hype is real, 1st car in the market to be soo banger on paper, kyu na ho hype

It's for driver monitoring system.

[@ShubhamSamantaray]

The headrest is from sierra design from lotous eletre

[@pacificsword1632]

The gear selection missing a lock for reverse or atleast a warning is a shocking and scary miss. Compounded by a soft actuation. Accidentally shifting gear in traffic bad enough. Accidentally shifting to reverse crazy.

If there is space underneath the frunk mahindra should consider increasing the frunk volume.

[@Jangulajangal123]

Agar yah XUV 6 ko 15 lakh ki gadi kar de aur 15 so rupaye Mahina Har mahine le 6 Sal Tak 21 lakh rupaye Ho jaenge inke aur Inki gadi Bik Jayegi 1 Sal Mein 50000

[@techien6212]

Public charging is hit or miss.

[@CHARVAGAN]

ICE to EV is supposed to bring down prices and reduce carbon emissions. In fact the opposite is happening on both fronts. Pushing insane amounts of money for marketing and recovering it with a huge profit margin from customers. It wont last even 400 km which is the least a long distance traveller drives a day. Usually an average long haul driver cruises around 500 to 600 kms per day. People now a days easily get deceived by looks instead of utility. Good luck Mahindra you nailed it with design.

EVs are the future, one can delay it, the more delay it we oay the price. Now the global car manufacturers are suffering except China. Chinese EVs are on a constant rise. The sooner we adopt it the better and its especially better for India. Low noise pollution and air pollution in Indian cities. Chinese reduced their pollution in just 10 years through EV adoption. Mainstream media wont show it .

[@zigwheels]

We’re definitely pro EVs but more importantly, pro choice. 90% of the issue is just access to dependable charging

[@PrayanshAlurkar]

Toyota innova or this ? I am confused...

[@zigwheels]

They’re very different products for very different use cases

[@alileevil]

Mahindra literally copying aspects of the Urus. Car journalists. OMG that design is AMAZING. Bruh sit down.

[@zigwheels]

The aspect it’s “copying” from the Urus is just having an outlandish design. Both have coupe SUV elements, that’s about where the similarities end

[@Artivule]

Mahindra BE 6e is now "BE 6"... it won't come with 6e badging. Indigo case outweighs mahindra's . The former will win the case easily based on today's infringement protocols

[@sssrp]

Its now BE 6 only...

[@anuragpandey6554]

will be fun to drive but it's pricey

[@adityasunkara]

Copying motorinc's format we see!

[@netajipalkar7521]

Mahindra never sells base variant keep waiting at 18 lac😂😂😂😂 you need at least 22 to 24lac+ to get cheapest be 6 e😅😅😅

[@travelwithAniket]

Get this model in petrol Mahindra

[@infinitebeing1119]

Not possible with this platform...in China today 50% car sold is an EV. If you want ICE go for XUV 700 and Scorpio.

Out of reach to many 😢

[@hitheshreddy7701]

What 35 lakh for top end, 😂 we get 2 be 06 cars basic one .

[@zigwheels]

Should’ve clarified, that is the premium pricing we’re saying it’s worth in the context of competitors. Keep in mind the base price is for the smaller battery pack and it’s just the introductory price. An 80kWh battery pack with the kind of features this car has seems worth that kind of money
