Dimensions & Real-World Practicality
Advanced Safety Features and ADAS Technology
The safety gear is also different depending on the variant, but in the low end the BE 6 SPORTEQ isn’t lacking for safety either. Six airbags, ESP and all-wheel disc brakes are standard as is a version of the braking-by-wire system with smart electronic brake booster, and driver drowsiness detection, an electronic parking brake, a rear view camera, parking sensors, tyre pressure monitoring. The mid-priced models add a vision camera and take it up a notch with L2+ ADAS (five sensors). The top-of-the-range models can also include a 540 degree camera, continuous DVR, HandsFree Park, audio relay and intrusion alerts, and live vehicle monitoring via the Secure360 Pro system.
Available Colour Options
Mahindra throws a significant shade into the BE 6 SPORTEQ’s colour choices because of its sporty nature. The standard BE 6 SPORTEQ is available in Ruby Velvet, Firestorm Orange, Stealth Black, Tango Red, Deep Forest, Desert Myst and Everest White. The Formula E Freedom Edition features a Satin option and is available in Rosso Impulso, Everest White, Firestorm Orange and Stealth Black.

Available Variants
Mahindra BE 6 SPORTEQ is available in eight variants and editions including One, Two, Three, Three+, Four, Formula E Freedom Edition (FE), FE FOUR and Launch Edition. The standard variants list the necessary technology and performance features while premium features like triple screens, intelligent adaptive suspension, premium sound system and connected-car technology are afforded in the higher variants.
Battery Pack Of Mahindra BE 6 SPORTEQ
The BE 6 SPORTEQ has three battery-pack sizes: 59 kWh, 70 kWh and 79 kWh. The 59 kWH battery is only found on the ONE and TWO variants, the 70kWH and 59 kWH batteries are available for the THREE variants, and the FE is offered in only 79 kWh of battery pack. Depending on the version the higher variants including THREE+, FOUR, Launch Edition and FE FOUR are offered with either 70 kWh or 79 kWh of battery pack. This wide battery range allows Mahindra to position the BE 6 SPORTEQ across different performance and range requirements rather than offering every buyer the same specification.
Power, Performance & Driving Dynamics Of Mahindra BE 6 SPORTEQ
Clearly one of the great attributes of BE 6 SPORTEQ is its performance. The 59 kWh battery variant delivers 170 kW of power whilst the 70 kWh battery comes with a 180 kW motor. The flagship 79 kWh version delivers 210 kW of power, while all models deliver a maximum torque of 380 Nm of torque with rear wheel drive configuration. The SUV is also equipped with a range of driving modes such as Default and Range, Everyday, Race, Custom and Snow. Customers may also enjoy Drift Mode, single-pedal driving, multi-level regenerative braking, variable-ratio electric power steering and intelligent adaptive suspension.
Mahindra BE 6 SPORTEQ Range: Battery & Real-World Efficiency
Another highlight is the BE 6 SPORTEQ’s range. Mahindra states that the 59 kWh version gets a claimed range of 548 km while the 70 kWh version can cover a distance of 651 km and the 79 kWh version can cover a distance of 683 km on the MIDC cycle. There is also a real world range of 500+ km, added by Mahindra. However, actual range may vary in case of traffic, weather conditions, style of driving and use of air-conditioning.
Mahindra BE 6 SPORTEQ Charging Time & Fast-Charging Details
The BE 6 SPORTEQ is capable of both AC and DC charging and the amount of charging capacity is dependent on the battery size. There are 13A chargers which can provide up to 3.2 kW of charging power, while the 7.2 kW and 11.2 kW wall mounting AC chargers are available. The 11.2 kW charger would take approximately 6 hours to charge the battery block, while the 70 kWh battery pack needs 7 hours of charging and the 79 kWh battery pack takes 8 hours to charge. On the other hand, charging time can be increased up to 8.7 hours, 10.2 hours and 11.7 hours on a 7.2 kW charger. On using a DC charger, BE 6 SPORTEQ can charge from 20 to 80 percent in around 20 minutes with a charging speed of up to 140 kW for the battery of 59 kWh, up to 160 kW for the battery of 70 kWh and up to 180 kW for the battery of 79 kWh.
Price Of Mahindra BE 6 SPORTEQ:
The Mahindra BE 6 SPORTEQ has now been launched in India with an ex-showroom price starting at ₹19.45 lakh for the 59 kWh ONE variant, while the range-topping versions go up to ₹26.95 lakh. The 70 kWh versions start at ₹22.95 lakh, while the 79 kWh range spans ₹24.45 lakh to ₹26.95 lakh depending on the variant. These are ex-showroom prices and exclude wall charger and installation costs, making the BE 6 SPORTEQ an interesting option for buyers comparing upfront EV prices with long-term running costs.
Battery as a Service (BaaS) Model Of Mahindra BE 6 SPORTEQ
If you want to cut down on the upfront cost of buying, Mahindra has also provided a Battery as a Service (BaaS) option for the variants like ONEs and TWOs which is empowered by a 59 kWh battery pack. In this configuration, the price of both models is reduced to ₹11.45 lakh for ONE variants & ₹12.95 lakh for TWO variants and the battery consumption would be charged at ₹3.75 per km which is based on a 60 km daily use. This strategy can help customers make the BE 6 SPORTEQ more affordable at the point of sale, but they should compare the total cost of battery use over the life of the vehicle with the standard purchase option before finalizing a purchase.
Things to Consider Before Buying:
The key factors in selecting the right BE 6 SPORTEQ variation, lie mostly with the range, performance and technology that is needed. For anyone whose everyday commute is city driving and wish to have the fundamental BE 6 experience the ONE featuring 59 kWh battery would be a simpler alternative. Larger battery options such as 70 kWh or 79 kWh batteries, might be more attractive for buyers looking to travel the highway frequently, since they promise greater claimed MIDC range. The 79 kWh model also offers the greatest motor output of 210 kW, making it the appropriate choice for those who wish to get the most performance from their vehicle in addition to the claims of extended range.
However, if premium technology is a top priority, you may need to check out the higher versions as things like the triple-screen arrangement, Google Gemini-powered TEQ_Talk, Intelligent Adaptive Suspension, L2+ ADAS, Secure360 Pro, HandsFree Park, Dolby Vision and the Harman Kardon audio system vary depending upon the variant. Another important factor for buyers to consider is the theme and wheels that are offered inside the vehicle they have in mind. Lastly, keep in mind that all the information on the brochure isn’t on pricing so the final buying decision should be taken after checking the latest price and time of your desired variant with an authorized Mahindra dealership.
