The biggest updates are inside.

This improves access to wireless charging and USB ports while adding storage. A black-and-tan (or black/Firestorm Orange on FE) cabin theme with revised upholstery is also new.
It introduces Mahindra’s TEQ technology suites (powered by the MAIA architecture), including:
- TEQ_Me: Automatic driver recognition and personalized profile loading.
- TEQ_Talk: Google Gemini AI integration for vehicle controls, navigation, and more.
- TEQ_xting: Personalized messaging on the rear tailgate display.
- TEQ_Drive: Custom drive modes, Tribe Drive, Drift Mode, Acceleration Boost, and Revive SOS (provides enough energy for up to ~13 km after the battery hits zero, usable up to five times over the battery’s life).
Other features across the range or higher variants include panoramic/infinity glass roof, 16-speaker Harman Kardon audio with Dolby Atmos, dual-zone climate control, ventilated front seats, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, 360-degree or 540-degree camera systems, ADAS (up to L2+ with multiple radars on top trims), Intelligent Adaptive Suspension (on select models), R20 alloys (on FE), power tailgate, NFC/digital key, cabin pre-cooling, charge scheduling, in-car gaming, karaoke, and more.
Formula E Freedom Special Edition
The Formula E Freedom (FE) edition draws inspiration from Mahindra’s motorsport heritage in the ABB FIA Formula E championship. This special edition celebrates the brand’s racing pedigree with unique design cues, exclusive badging, and a distinct identity. The FE FOUR variant is priced at ₹26.95 lakh (79 kWh), while the Launch Edition is offered at a more accessible ₹24.45 lakh, making the motorsport-inspired package available to a wider audience at launch.
FE (Formula E-inspired) highlights: Black and Firestorm Orange interior with leatherette/suede, FE decals on the roof, dual Super HD screens, Harman Kardon audio, NightTail carpet lamps, R20 alloys, Intelligent Adaptive Suspension, advanced camera, dual-zone AC, and wireless charger (priced at ₹24.45 lakh with 79 kWh). The FE FOUR adds higher equipment like L2+ ADAS, AR HUD, powered/ventilated seats, and more at ₹26.95 lakh.
The regular FOUR and Launch Edition (both ₹26.95 lakh) emphasize the full TEQ suite, Drift Mode, Revive Mode, and scheduled OTA updates.
Powertrain and Performance
No mechanical changes from the standard BE 6. It uses a rear-mounted electric motor with:
- Up to ~286 hp (or 282–286 hp depending on battery) and 380 Nm of torque.
- Battery options of 59 kWh, 70 kWh, and 79 kWh (LFP chemistry, with BYD blade cell technology on larger packs).
- Claimed MIDC/ARAI range of up to ~682–683 km on the 79 kWh pack (lower on smaller batteries; real-world figures are typically lower, as seen in prior BE 6 tests around 449 km combined for the 79 kWh).
Fast charging remains strong (around 20 minutes for significant top-ups on DC chargers). The vehicle is rear-wheel drive.The Sporteq positions the BE 6 more firmly as a tech- and feature-rich contender in the midsize electric SUV segment, competing with models like the Hyundai Creta EV, Tata offerings, and others. It builds on the original BE 6’s stylish coupe-SUV design (length ~4.37 m, distinctive lighting, flush handles) with a stronger emphasis on personalization, AI connectivity, and special editions.
