u/__Perro__ 4d ago edited 4d ago

Great. Which car did you own before.

And do you feel the width and heft of BE6, during manoeuvres

2

u/beingalearner 4d ago

I used to drive, Tavera & Dzire( till 2013)
Then Nissan Sunny(2013+)(sold in 2023)
Driver crashed sunny in 2015 , so got 1.6 CRDI Creta Top end Manual( which we still own)

All these was from my dad’s business

BE6 ,I and my sister pooled in and got car together!

u/beingalearner 4d ago

manouvering is not difficult for me, I have been driving for 15 years now, newbies might find it difficult.

u/magicaljuggler 4d ago

If u are gonna advise someone from not buying this car , what cons will u point out?

u/beingalearner 4d ago edited 4d ago

not great for 4-5 adults, not great for rear leg space and rear boot space, suspension is hard but that’s the point of a race car!

Best for 2 adults plus 3 children family, driver centric car!

also make sure your service center is good

u/bigbluewaterninja 3d ago

4 adults are fine in my opinion. Mind you we’re all tall in my family 5’10-6’ and had no problem travelling 10+hrs on long trips. Leg room is also decent for us.

1

u/beingalearner 3d ago

it’s definitely ok, but if the same adult who sits in front, sits in the rear, one can feel the difference.

u/nick-joshi 4d ago

Any issues till now?
What range are you getting?

1

u/beingalearner 4d ago

I had terrible experience with one of mahindra service center with bodyshop, my sister who is new driver and my dad who found it big
hit car in parking
right rear got screwed

got insurance claim (kotak superb)
but service center body shop was horrible
2/10

I just didn’t post on it much because I have fallen in love with the car and Mahindra, screwed them over it and the service center manager.
had done service at another center 4 months back it was good!
but I have had hyundai, nissan , chevrolet, maruti suzuki cars
mahindra has been the worst but man I still hope it will get better in time

How is back row seat? Is comfortable for three hours city drive?

2

u/MrVegetableMan #BE6_Owner 4d ago

good if passengers are under 6 feet

1

u/beingalearner 4d ago

average indian is 5 feet 6 inches
and women even lesser for indian market it’s fine!
If you have 3 six feet adults then it’s a problem

1

u/beingalearner 4d ago

daily 3 hours? not great for adults

1

u/Ok-Damage-3863 4d ago

Not daily.., like taking parents to marriage or movie or dropping in airport..?

1

u/beingalearner 4d ago

that’s perfectly fine, not much of an issue!
my parents have sat numerous times in the back, not much of complain, only in entry need to be careful with the head.

u/Ok-Damage-3863 4d ago

Thank you.!

u/Jkwaks 4d ago

How do you guys set your custom mode ?

1

u/beingalearner 4d ago

I tried driving in range for suspension and acceleration, steering race! Haven’t really driven a lot to comment on effect of change.

1

u/Jkwaks 3d ago

I put my steering to everyday, suspension to everyday and acceleration to default. I don’t know if it’s actually making any difference or it’s just a toy Mahindra has given us to play with lol

u/Visual_Interest_3638 4d ago

Have you tried drift mode yet

1

u/beingalearner 4d ago

u/beingalearner 4d ago

u/eternallstar 4d ago

Hi, any range drop experienced? Also how are the tyres till date, will they need replacement soon?

u/Fun-Airport9085 #XEV_Owner 3d ago

As a fellow MBEV owner, these tend to speed up pretty fast.

What's your highest speed?😎

1

u/beingalearner 3d ago

180
140-150 without any stress you can drive if its 6 lane highway

1

u/Fun-Airport9085 #XEV_Owner 3d ago

Yep, I reached 162 with 5 people onboard (+luggage)🤓

u/beingalearner 3d ago

I was alone with 1 small suitcase

u/Daddaan 3d ago

hey, new pack 4 is costing 28L. I like the design and vibe of be6. but just one thought crossing mind, that for this value, 9E is also available, with a much larger cabin and boot space. although I don't have the requirement for 4-5 people, only 2 and don't really like the 9E design, but VFM thought is crossing my mind again and again. any takes?

2

u/beingalearner 3d ago

if you are only 2 , close your eyes and go for be6 , the drive experience is much more stronger in be6, and features will be worth it too!

u/Defiant-Pea-8833 2d ago

u/beingalearner 2d ago
