Mahindra is boosting the appeal of its XEV 9e and BE 6 electric SUVs by introducing a larger 79kWh battery pack for their Pack Two variants.
More Power for Your Drive
Mahindra has exciting news for electric vehicle enthusiasts. The brand has now made the 79kWh battery pack available in the Pack Two variants of both the BE 6 and XEV 9e electric SUVs. This marks a significant upgrade, as these popular models were previously offered only with a 59kWh battery pack.
This larger battery option aims to enhance the driving experience and reduce range anxiety for potential buyers looking for extended journeys and greater performance from their electric vehicle.
Pricing and What to Expect
When it comes to pricing, the new 79kWh Pack Two variants come with an ex-showroom tag of Rs. 23.50 lakh for the Mahindra XEV 9e and Rs. 26.50 lakh for the BE 6. It’s important for prospective buyers to note that these figures are ex-showroom prices.
These prices do not cover the additional cost of the charger or its installation. Furthermore, the final price applicable to the customer will be the one in effect at the time of delivery for all variants.
Performance That Delivers
Beneath the sleek exterior, the 79kWh battery pack in these new Mahindra BE 6 and XEV 9e Pack Two variants is paired with a single electric motor. This powerful setup delivers an impressive 282bhp and a robust 380Nm of torque.
Power is efficiently sent to the rear wheels, promising a dynamic and engaging driving experience. This configuration is designed to provide both exhilarating acceleration and smooth performance.
Extended Range and Rapid Charging
One of the most significant advantages of the larger battery is the extended range it offers. Mahindra claims these updated models can travel up to 500km on a single charge, making longer commutes and weekend getaways more convenient.
Charging is also quick and efficient. The 79kWh versions can go from 20 to 80 percent charge in just 20 minutes when utilizing a 175kW DC fast charger. For those with the 59kWh variant, a 140kW DC fast charger achieves the same 20-80 percent charge in an equally impressive 20 minutes.
Get Ready for Deliveries
Excitement is building as deliveries for both the new 79kWh variants and the existing 59kWh versions are slated to begin very soon. Customers can expect to start receiving their new electric SUVs by the end of this month.
This rollout marks a significant step for Mahindra in expanding its electric vehicle lineup and catering to a broader audience with diverse range requirements.
