Mahindra's two new electric vehicles couldn't be more different from each other. But both have a common mission: To redefine India's EV landscape.

The BE 6e (meant to sound like Be Sexy) has a design that seems straight out of a sci-fi flick: Futuristic, angular lines, wide stance, flush door-handles, aerodynamically optimised wheels, trapezoidal window line, bold geometric detailing. It's a head turner.

But it may not be to everyone's tastes. So, Mahindra has cleverly Launched the more conventional-looking XEV 9e as well.

This is the electric cousin of the XUV700, but with a SUV-coupe design, illuminated accents and a dramatic-looking blanked-out grille.The BE 6e grabs more attention. Let's dive into this model first.

The BE 6e has sports-car-like cockpit, a unique halo loop and a hexagonal steering wheel.
