Mahindra XEV 9e
The XEV 9e appears to share many of its styling cues with the Mahindra XUV.e9 concept that it is based on
The Mahindra XEV 9e, based on the XUV.e9 concept, appears to share most of its styling cues with the concept car. These include the coupe-like roofline, edgy DRLs that run the entire width of the EV’s bonnet, and extend towards the lower end of the front bumper, and the triangular headlamps. The rear end of the EV features tail lamps that extend from one end to the other. The concept vehicle measured 4790 mm long, 1905 mm wide, and 1690 mm tall, offering a wheelbase of 2775 mm, and we expect the production-spec to have similar dimensions.

The BE 6e’s silhouette is in line with a performance crossover
The BE 6e on the other hand, based on the BE.05 concept, has a more performance crossover-type silhouette. Mahindra stated during the unveiling of the concept vehicle that this would be a Sports Electric Vehicle (SEV). According to the teaser video, the BE 6e will sport a few interesting design elements such as the large opening on the hood, likely to make it more aerodynamically efficient.

The fascia features sporty-looking DRLs that outline the openings for the headlamps, while the rear appears to get a horizontal taillamp that runs the entire width of the rear end. The concept vehicle measured 4370 mm in length, 1900 mm in width, and 1635 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2775 mm.
The BE 6e will feature a panoramic sunroof
