The recent sighting of the rugged Rall-E version of the BE6 electric SUV suggests that the launch is around the corner
Mahindra & Mahindra is working on multiple new electric SUVs for the Indian market, including the XUV3XO EV and XEV 7e. In line with this, the test mule of a rugged off-road oriented version of the BE6 electric SUV was recently spotted, which will likely go by the name BE6 Rall-E.
The Rall-E version of the BE6 was showcased in concept form back in 2023 and was also on display at the 2024 Bharat Mobility Expo. While the test prototype was heavily camouflaged, it appeared product-ready.
The launch timeline of Mahindra’s upcoming rugged electric SUV is not clear; however, the frequent test mule spottings hint at an imminent market debut, probably sometime next year. In addition to the BE6 Rall-E, the Indian SUV manufacturer is also working on the XUV3XO EV and XEV 7e 7-seater electric SUV, both of which are also expected to go on sale in 2026.

Talking about the details of the BE6 Rall-E test mule, the overall design language is the same as the regular BE6, albeit with some minor changes. It gets a round headlamp setup upfront, the same unit seen on the concept version, which is different from what we get in the regular model. A roof carrier and off-road spec tyres can also be seen in the spy images.
Apart from this, the front and rear bumpers seem to be new, which are most likely designed to suit the SUV’s off-road credentials. We could also spot green decals, black wheel arch cladding and steel wheels on the test prototype. The interiors of the BE6 Rall-E are under wraps, however, we expect only some minor variations as compared to the regular model.

The Mahindra BE6 Rall-E is expected to get an upgraded powertrain setup. The larger 79 kWh battery could be offered as standard with the rugged electric SUV. We also expect it to get a dual motor setup, channelling power to all four wheels.
The combined output from the dual electric motors will likely be around 389 bhp and 480 Nm of peak torque, however, nothing can be confirmed as of now. It might use a smart off-road electronic suit to control the power distribution to the front and rear axles, giving it the required off-road capabilities.
