The flagship BE 6e and XEV 9e are set to revolutionise the industry as Mahindra ‘Unlimit India’ event will change the course of Indian automotive history

On November 26, 2024 in Chennai, Mahindra & Mahindra is set to break new ground by unveiling two cutting-edge eSUVs, the BE 6e and XEV 9e. This valiant move marks a rare moment in India’s automotive journey, displaying Mahindra’s ambition to push the boundaries of innovation. More than just launching vehicles, the company is setting the stage for a transformative leap in the electric mobility space, aiming to redefine the SUV landscape in India and beyond.

This highly anticipated launch could very well signify a pivotal moment in India’s electric vehicle journey, signalling a shift that positions the country as a formidable force in the global automotive arena. Reflecting this ambitious vision, M&M has aptly themed the event ‘Unlimit India’, symbolising boundless potential and the promise of a future driven by innovation and sustainability.

There is a lot to talk about when it comes to why these offerings are pivotal! The Mahindra BE 6e and XEV 9e are crafted using the revolutionary INGLO Electric Origin Architecture, a result of Mahindra’s collaboration with over 250 global partners to integrate leading global technologies. Unlike traditional EVs derived from ICE platforms, this architecture enables never-before-seen advancements that reevaluate what electric vehicles can achieve.
