They run together up to ₹19.95L, where the Creta N Line tops out. Past that only the BE 6 has anything left to sell you, up to ₹28.49L.

Same money, which car?
Take ₹19.95L to both showrooms and you come out with the Creta N Line N10 at ₹19.95L or the BE 6 Pack One at ₹18.90L, the BE 6 leaving ₹1.05L of that in your pocket.
Our take
The real reason to pay ₹1.05L more for the Creta N Line N10: level 2 (full suite) ADAS, 360° camera and blind spot monitor. The useful extras on top: dual-zone climate control and 8-way powered driver seat. The rest of the additions are minor trim. At that price, we would stretch.
- The BE 6 is electric, so it will be the cheapest of these to run
- The BE 6 Pack One is the strongest of the two at 231 PS
- Also on the Creta N Line N10: tyre pressure monitor, SOS emergency call (E-call / B-call), panoramic sunroof and ventilated front seats, and some minor trim beyond that
- Going to the Creta N Line N10, you give up touchscreen (12.3" against 10.25") and regenerative braking, which the BE 6 Pack One keeps
- Choose the Mahindra BE 6 Pack One if
- You would rather keep the ₹1.05L than pay for kit you will not miss, and the EV running costs seal it
- Choose the Hyundai Creta N Line N10 if
- You will do long stints in this car and want the daily comforts
