M&M on next level
I respect Pratap Bose a lot but this stint feels more like a flop show in kinda trying to steal the Sierra lime light.
Too Much Hype.. about this Product..
This man is unstoppable , making back to back ugly cars , they look hideous on the roads
That bar inside the cabin makes it feel quite claustrophobic actually.
What is the partioning in the front rows , huge appeal to the designers , we dont want it,
Just for the name , not a formula car, very big and not at all smooth
embarrassing
The sad story is mahindra have converted all unsold base variants in be6 into formula car by adding modifiable accessories ЁЯШВЁЯШВЁЯШВЁЯШВ
Very nice… also should have upped the power too with be9 top spec power figures and brakes as well would have been a phenomenon..
Whatever he may say, the front end looks ugly
2:11 Both of them realise that's such a stupid choice and decision!
Everybody is criticizing the design but I do like it. People who don't like it can always buy the normal be6
Such poorly the representative has described the car as if he built the car in his garage. Mahindra really needs to work on the way they let their team mention the product. Their designs have been improved though overdone at times but thatтАЩs subjective.
And the award for the ugliest car of this decade goes to ——-
I just have to get this out of my sytem, even if everyone disagrees with me: God, I can't stand a car being spoken about like a fashion designer would talk about a getup on a model in a fashion show. It is a machine. Talk engineering more. This pendulum has swung too far with Mahindra, as far as I am concerned. It is beginning to seem like they are compensating for relatively inadequate engineering with 'looks'.
I want to see the equipment list of these cars.
Reports are telling us that the FE3 has the same equipment list as the Pack 3 and it's 1Lakh lower in price.
If that is the case, then the Pack 3 has no reason to exist and this variant is a winner.
Specially in all black.
Unfortunately even Anand Mahindra seems to have no great Taste and affinity towards the Design. Having Pininfarina with them I wonder….. Anyways…. Who cares
Even Nikhil looked that he is not much interested on Gyan pratap was giving…… he was changing topics and smiling on that……..
Here is an idea please bear with long format:
India has a large 2 wheeler market 20 Lakh vehicles sold per month.
Across India many people travel with 2-3 kids with spouse on these making it extremely unsafe means of transport.
This behavior is also prevalent on highways and expressways and not limited to in town.
Now that GST 2.0 has simplified tax structure.
Why can't we introduce Kei car category in India? We put this category at 10% tax hence keeping costs low.
We already have Japanese car makers doing business in India, by my count collectively they have 20 car models in this category.
Using Kei car structure will mean the Japanese brands don't have to spend million in developing new models for us.
Now to avoid the Nano blunder and overcome the esteem bump to improve adoption we offer BH plate number as standard on this category (also ensures states don't mess up RTO – looking at you Karnataka).
To test the waters we allow brands 1 year moratorium on import duty on fully assembled units.
after this 2 – 3 years moratorium on CKD versions that are put together in India.
3-4 years are more than sufficient to create this segment in our car markets.
This reduces risks for car brands completely. Eventually if Kei series are manufactured in India we can also be exporting back to Japan eventually given our number strengths.
Hence strategically getting manufacturing in India from a foreign country.
My calculations are based on MG COMET
it has 7% share of EV car market. If Kei follows that trend means 20000 units sold monthly.
With tax incentives this can grow to 50-60K.
Our 2 wheeler market will not feel the pinch by these numbers.
Looking historically at Alto, Nano, SPresso numbers which did much better in Rural, Towns and Hills better than in cities it should be a viable win win situation for all.
Yes non Japanese car brands will have a little issue at the start but Tata had Nano and Mahindra had Reva which might help them launch car in 2-3 years.
Worst looking vehicle for 2025
what is this idiocy with all automakers making taillamps and indicators hard to see?? Its supposed to be calling attention not merging into horizon!
They are overdoing it. Looks like those DC cars.
It looks so dumb I want it
Tata design philosophy is ageless and far better than Mahindra….there design looks toys which is not looking good on a roads…like scorpio & others they are big but looks more like a truck…not car….
Dude, you should stop designing. You are making good cars look bad.
Any change in range or performance because of the aerodynamics and stripped of weights? @autocar??
What Hyundai should have done three years ago is exactly what Mahindra is doing now. Despite having a stronger brand image and superior products, Hyundai missed the opportunity тАФ though itтАЩs still not too late to catch up. Interestingly, Mahindra seems to be following in Hyundai and KiaтАЩs footsteps, replicating their design approach and adopting similar marketing strategies used by Hyundai in international markets.

The structure that partition the driver and the passenger looks asymmetric and out of space. Like a bone. Otherwise it looks sporty.
How much weight they have saved from regular BE6
Worst looking, out of design elements screaming loud, Roxx headlights, what is this from Mahindra??
Pratap Sir sorry but no sorry we all belong to this era of mankind where car owners exists and world of dealerships and stockyards its just like a wine ЁЯН╖ and vineyard
Round headlights doesn't go with the design language of the car.
Always Modi govt and Sir Anand Mahindra sir always ЁЯЩПbest wishes from Bhai
Thankyou for leaving Tata motors Mr. Bose ЁЯЩПЁЯП╝
Modern cars donтАЩt even look like cars anymore, itтАЩs all frog faces and robot backs
I hate those c shaped drls. This is perfect..
This shouldтАЩve been rally or Dakar edition ЁЯШЕ
Front headlight assembly looks horrible. Much of its look was due to its headlight and the wrapping led. The round light for an otherwise straight lines and cuts design language is a complete mismatch.
Please make a dual motor AWD version instead of these hot wheels editions.
Tatas design are always good simple and eye catching i dont know whats wrong with mahindra.
This car is overdesigned
Pratap are you joking with India market by mentioned nick ps in others languageтАжhope you understand ЁЯШв
Mahindra targeting only Rich kid for this vehicle..This product is like use&throw..
Ugliest car award
You know you have done a poor job, when you have to explain your design !!
This car looks like a DC design vehicle ЁЯШВ
Ahh yes…..the perfect car! The goal was to confuse everyone, including the person who designed it! ЁЯджтАНтЩВя╕П all he needed was thar inspired headlights and lots of lots of stickers…ЁЯШЕ Buyers for this? Seriously?
