Electric mobility just got a fresh dash of racing DNA. Mahindra has rolled out the special-edition BE 6 Formula E Edition — a performance-themed electric SUV blending street-ready practicality with motorsport style. The new trim goes on sale for ₹23.69 lakh (ex-showroom) for the base FE2 variant and ₹24.49 lakh for the FE3 variant.
What’s New: Formula E Theme & Design Upgrades
The BE 6 Formula E Edition doesn’t just borrow a name — it brings bold visuals and racing-inspired touches inside and out.
- Exterior upgrades: New aggressive front and rear bumpers, racetrack-style headlamps, gloss-black accents, Firestorm Orange brake calipers, a skid plate with liquid-metal finish, and decals including Formula E logos and graphics. The Edition also gets sporty roof spoilers and colored tow-hook accents.
- Colour and styling options: Buyers can pick from four colour themes — Everest White, Tango Red, Firestorm Orange and Stealth Black — each paired with the Formula-E livery enhancements.
- Interior rework: Inside, you get a special Formula E-themed cabin with carbon-fibre-look accents, orange stitch and trim elements, a Formula E badge on the dashboard, and match-themed seatbacks and door handles — giving the SUV a distinctly sporty, race-car vibe.
FE3 variant adds extra flair: 20-inch alloy wheels, adaptive suspension, and unique “Night Trail” carpet lighting to enhance the exclusivity.
Powertrain & Performance: Under the Hood
Mechanically, the BE 6 Formula E Edition inherits the powertrain from the standard BE 6 — a 79 kWh battery pack powering a rear-wheel drive electric motor delivering ~281 bhp (210 kW) and 380 Nm torque.
Performance figures include:
- 0–100 km/h in ~6.7 seconds
- Top speed: approx. 202 km/h
- Claimed range (MIDC): up to 682 km — though real-world range might hover around 500 km depending on driving conditions.
- Charging capability: Supports fast DC charging (up to 180 kW), allowing 20–80% recharging in under 20 minutes with compatible chargers.
Features & Tech Highlights
The BE 6 Formula E Edition gets a host of modern conveniences and safety gear:
- Dual 12.3-inch displays with latest AdrenoX infotainment system — wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, OTA updates, 5G connectivity and voice assistant support.
- Premium audio setup: 16-speaker Harman Kardon system with Dolby Atmos and “Sonic Studio” sound experience.
- Connectivity perks: wireless charging, phone integration, custom “engine-sound” simulation, and cabin ambient controls to enhance the electric- SUV experience.
- Safety & comfort: 360-degree camera, blind-view monitor, six airbags, brake-by-wire system, high-stiffness body shell, TPMS, and WELL-equipped suspension with adaptive or standard setup based on variant.
