The special edition of the fully electric SUV celebrates Mahindra’s involvement in the Formula E championship since 2014
Mahindra has rolled out a fresh take on its BE6 electric SUV, arriving a year after the model’s debut in India. This new BE6 Formula E Edition celebrates the brand’s ongoing presence in the FIA Formula E championship, carrying a range of design tweaks.

When most carmakers release a special edition, the updates stop at paint colors, wheels, or graphics. Mahindra went a step further, reshaping parts of the body to make the BE6 Formula E Edition stand out for more than its decals.
What Sets It Apart?
The BE6 Formula E Edition features a distinct front bumper framed by round LED headlights and sharply contoured detailing. A new skid plate and a generous spread of dark liquid metal cladding make it look more like a dune-conquering rally car than a formula-inspired build.
The rear bumper has also been redesigned, joined by a double spoiler. Furthermore, the vertical LEDs have been blocked for a cleaner look.
The SUV sits on new 20-inch alloy wheels, though Mahindra also offers the familiar 19-inch set from the standard BE6. Along the profile, the glass roof and pillars wear racing-inspired graphics that contrast neatly with the four body colors on offer: Everest White, Firestorm Orange, Tango Red, and Stealth Black
The fully electric SUV has also gained Formula E badges on the front fenders and special branding on the windshield. The cabin combines black upholstery with Firestorm Orange inserts, FIA-branded seat belts and plaque, the Formula E logo on the dashboard, and a custom startup animation.

Equipment is generous, with a standard digital cockpit, dual wireless charging, a Harman Kardon audio system, and an ADAS suite.
Performance And Range
The Formula E special doesn’t get any performance upgrades over the high-spec BE6. The rear-mounted electric motor produces 282 hp (210 kW / 286 PS) and 380 Nm (280.3 lb-ft) of torque, sending the SUV from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 6.7 seconds and on to a 202 km/h (126 mph) top speed. A 79 kWh battery provides an estimated 500 km (311 miles) of real-world range.
The top FE3 trim adds adaptive suspension as standard, making it the most sophisticated version yet.
Pricing
Mahindra prices the BE6 Formula E Edition from ₹23.69 lakh ($26,500) for the FE2 and ₹24.49 lakh ($27,400) for the fully equipped FE3. Unlike the limited-run Batman Edition, this one will be widely available, though still exclusive to India. Orders open on January 14, with first deliveries due by February 14, 2026.
For younger fans, Mahindra even plans a BE6 Formula E Ride-On toddler car, arriving in April 2026 for ₹18,000 ($200).
Mahindra has competed in Formula E since the series began in 2014, claiming five victories and 29 podiums to date. While a championship title remains elusive, the team’s consistency has secured its place on the grid for the next era of the sport, continuing into the GEN4 generation for the 2026–2027 season
