Mahindra is channeling the high-voltage excitement of the racetrack directly into its latest electric vehicle. The automaker has just unveiled the BE 6 Formula E Edition, an exclusive model that celebrates its deep-rooted involvement in the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship. The most compelling detail for enthusiasts? Production will be strictly limited to just 999 units worldwide, making this a potential collector’s item from the moment it hits the road.
For those ready to secure one of these exclusive EVs, the process is strategically mapped out. It all begins in mid-December 2025 with an online “add to cart” phase, allowing potential owners to lock in their preferred model configuration. The formal booking process then officially opens on January 14, 2026. If all goes according to plan, the first customers will be handed their keys on February 14, 2026, a Valentine’s Day delivery for those passionate about electric performance.
Pricing and Powertrain
Mahindra has positioned the BE 6 Formula E Edition in two distinct trims. The journey starts with the FE2 variant, priced at ₹23.69 lakh (ex-showroom), while the more feature-rich FE3 trim comes in at ₹24.49 lakh. This premium buys you more than just unique aesthetics; it’s an investment in a proven electric powertrain.
Under the skin, the BE 6 Formula E Edition retains the formidable performance of the standard model. Its 210 kW electric motor delivers a robust 282 bhp and 380 Nm of torque, ensuring instant acceleration. While the powerplant remains unchanged, the driving experience is sharpened by a suite of advanced technologies, including an adaptive suspension system, a boost mode for extra power, and multi-step regenerative braking. For urban driving, its compact 10-metre turning circle is a significant advantage.
Charging convenience is also a key focus. The 79 kWh battery pack supports 180 kW DC fast charging, which can replenish the battery from 20% to 80% in approximately 20 minutes.
Where the Racetrack Meets the Road
The true character of this special edition is expressed through its design. The exterior is adorned with a full-body livery inspired directly by the Formula E paddock, featuring FIA branding and dynamic graphics across the bonnet and fenders. It rides on striking R20 alloy wheels and features a fixed glass roof, signature LED daytime running lights, and circular LED projector headlamps.
Inside, the cabin seamlessly blends modern luxury with motorsport flair. The centerpiece is a dual 12.3-inch screen setup running Mahindra’s latest AdrenoX interface. The infotainment system is packed with features like wireless smartphone connectivity, a premium Dolby Atmos audio system, integrated OTT apps, and Alexa voice support. The range-topping FE3 variant takes the experience a step further with exclusive Formula E-themed startup animations and unique interior accents.
Comfort and practicality are not sacrificed for style. The vehicle is equipped with ventilated front seats, a powered driver’s seat, dual-zone climate control, and ambient lighting. Practical touches include a wireless charger, rear AC vents, a 60:40 split-folding rear seat, and a “frunk” (front trunk) that is both lit and equipped with drainage, making it surprisingly useful.
Safety as Standard
Despite its limited-run status, Mahindra has not compromised on safety. Both the FE2 and FE3 variants come equipped with a comprehensive Level 2 Advanced Driver-Assistance System (ADAS), six airbags, a 360-degree camera, all-wheel disc brakes, a brake-by-wire system, and a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that provides live readings.
The Mahindra BE 6 Formula E Edition is more than just a car; it’s a statement. It successfully translates the innovation and exhilaration of Formula E into a tangible, daily-drivable electric vehicle, offering a unique blend of exclusivity, performance, and cutting-edge technology for the Indian EV market.
