Mahindra’s electrifying duo – the BE6 and XEV 9e – has taken the Indian EV market by storm. Launched in 2024 as the company’s most advanced electric SUVs to date, both vehicles have seen a massive surge in popularity since bookings opened on February 14, 2025. Mahindra has received a staggering 30,000 bookings, creating a buzz rarely seen in the Indian auto space.
While that’s a clear sign of consumer confidence, it also comes with a twist – a waiting period of up to six months!
High Demand, Long Wait
The waiting period for these highly sought-after SUVs varies depending on the variant:
Mahindra BE6 Waiting Period:
- Pack One & Pack One Above – Deliveries expected in August 2025
- Pack Two – July 2025
- Pack Three Select – June 2025
Mahindra XEV 9e Waiting Period:
- Pack One – August 2025
- Pack Two – June 2025
- Pack Three Select – July 2025
Why the Hype?
Both SUVs offer cutting-edge tech and an impressive real-world range of up to 500 km. Key highlights include:
- Two battery pack options – 55 kWh and 79 kWh
- Power Output: 228 bhp (55 kWh) & 282 bhp (79 kWh), with 380 Nm torque
- Level 2+ ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems)
- Auto parking assist
- 12.3-inch triple display setup (in XEV 9e, including co-driver screen)
- 16-speaker Harman Kardon audio system
Such features are not only class-leading but are also elevating the Indian EV ownership experience to global standards.
What This Means for Buyers
The BE6 and XEV 9e are easily among the most technologically advanced Indian electric SUVs currently available. However, with the ongoing demand and limited initial production capacity, buyers looking to own one soon might have to exercise patience.
So, if you’re planning to join the Mahindra EV club – better book now or be ready to wait!
