Which Mahindra BE 6 variant should you buy?
Best value for money: SPORTEQ THREE+, at ₹1.00L over the SPORTEQ THREE. Of the steps you pay extra for that keep the same engine and gearbox, none is better value for money on the price list. Formula E Edition FE3 to Pack Three Select looks better value for money than that, and is left out of the comparison because it changes the engine or the gearbox too: its price is not the price of its features.

Above that, the one to think hardest about is SPORTEQ FOUR, at ₹2.00L over SPORTEQ THREE+. Of the 2 steps above the best-value one, none is worse value for money, so take it because you want what it adds, not because it is next.

Why some steps are not ranked
What the road does to this ranking
Where you register does not change which step is the best buy here. SPORTEQ THREE to SPORTEQ THREE+ asks the least money for each feature it adds on the price list, and that holds once road tax is counted too, in all 17 of the states we can price this ladder in.
Why the road could have changed this, and did not
Every price on this page is the showroom's. States charge their road tax as a share of that price and step the share up in bands, so a trim that carries a car past a band boundary is charged for the whole boundary. A ranking worked out on the price list is not automatically the ranking you pay.
Take the badged step, SPORTEQ THREE to SPORTEQ THREE+: ₹1,00,000 on the price list, and anywhere from ₹1,01,000 to ₹1,15,000 on the road. 10 of them are level at the lowest, and Assam comes out highest, across the 17 states behind that range. Every other step moves by its own amount, and that is what can reorder them.
In each of those states we ranked the 8 steps that keep the same engine and gearbox again, and the order came back the same every time. So the badge above is safe to act on wherever you buy the car.
Where the features that matter land
- Airbags
- 7 of them arrive at SPORTEQ THREE+, from ₹23.95L.
- Not every trim keeps them: 2 other trims fall short of it, the Formula E Edition FE3 at ₹24.49L with 6 airbags against 7.
- Safety features
- Pack Three, from ₹26.90L, is the cheapest trim with every safety feature this car offers at its best.
The good news
Spending past it buys comfort and cosmetics, not protection.- Cheapest automatic
- Pack One Electric AT, ₹18.90L
- ADAS
- You need the Pack Two, from ₹21.90L, for ADAS: ₹3.00L over where the BE 6 opens. Spend ₹5.00L more again, to the Pack Three at ₹26.90L, and that ADAS is level 2 (full suite) rather than level 2 (core suite).
- Airbags
- Every BE 6 has 6 or more airbags, the base Pack One included, so there is no step to pay for.
- 360° camera
- You need the SPORTEQ THREE+, from ₹23.95L, for a 360 camera: ₹5.05L over where the BE 6 opens. Worth checking before you spend past it: 2 other trims fall short of it, the Formula E Edition FE3 at ₹24.49L with no 360° camera.
- Sunroof
- You need the Pack One Above, from ₹20.50L, for a sunroof: ₹1.60L over where the BE 6 opens.
- Ventilated front seats
- You need the SPORTEQ THREE+, from ₹23.95L, for ventilated seats: ₹5.05L over where the BE 6 opens. Worth checking before you spend past it: 2 other trims fall short of it, the Formula E Edition FE3 at ₹24.49L with no ventilated front seats.
- Cruise control
- Every BE 6 has cruise control, the base Pack One included, so there is no step to pay for.
Then there is the engine
