Mahindra has officially launched the world’s first Formula E–themed special edition SUV — the BE 6 Formula E Edition — marking a landmark moment for India’s growing motorsport culture. Priced at Rs 23.69 lakh for the FE2 variant and Rs 24.49 lakh for the FE3 variant (ex-showroom), the BE 6 Formula E Edition becomes the first road car to directly draw styling and inspiration from India’s only factory Formula E team: Mahindra Racing.
India’s First Formula E-Themed SUV
Formula racing viewership in India has exploded in the last few years. From cafe screenings and college motorsport clubs to home audiences tuning in for every race weekend, motorsport has become a cultural movement. Mahindra, India’s first and only Formula E team, has played an important role in this rising enthusiasm, finishing 4th globally in Season 11 and entering Season 12 with the all-new M12Electro race car.
The BE 6 Formula E Edition brings this motorsport legacy to the road, giving Indian fans their first-ever chance to own a road-going SUV that celebrates their passion for electric racing.

R Velusamy, President – Automotive Business, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. and Managing Director, Mahindra Electric Automobile Ltd., said, “Our customers conveyed a compelling message, the BE 6 doesn’t just look futuristic, but it also evokes the sensation of being in a racing cockpit once they step inside. They love that it screams electric, unapologetically. We built the Formula E Edition by listening to that energy. Racing is no longer a niche in India; it’s becoming a lifestyle statement. With this edition, we’ve channelled that cultural shift into a machine that celebrates electric performance the Mahindra way – bold, emotional, and proudly made in India.”
