The sound system features three-way speakers, including a tweeter, mid-range, and woofer positioned near the front seats. At the heart of the setup is Harman\’s Unity Speaker design, complemented by rear surround speakers delivering high-fidelity mid-range sound. Additionally, both vehicles are equipped with a ceiling-mounted subwoofer and two speaker drivers to create an immersive surround sound experience, enhanced by Dolby Atmos.
Part of Mahindra\’s Born Electric Vision, both the BE 6 and XEV 9e are built on the INGLO platform, designed to meet advanced safety standards and international industry requirements. The platform also benefits from a collaboration with the Volkswagen Group for sourcing components like batteries, electric motors, and system parts.
While Mahindra plans to launch five born-electric models, the BE 6 and XEV 9e are the first two. The BE 6 is a performance-oriented vehicle with bold design and impressive performance specifications, while the XEV 9e is a premium model, featuring luxurious materials, a refined interior, and a host of comfort-focused features.
