Mahindra BE.6 Batman Edition – The Real Indian Batmobile
The Mahindra BE.6 Batman Edition has arrived at 27.8 lakh in India. Limited production of 300 units, this premium EV SUV offers 682 km range, Batman-inspired look, luxury interiors, ADAS safety, and quick charging.
A Story That Begins in Gotham, Ends in India:
There are two types of cars: the ones we drive, and the ones we dream about. For decades, the Batmobile safely resided in the “dream” side of things — comic books, movies, video games. Nobody assumed you’d ever catch a glimpse of it cruising down an Indian highway.
But Mahindra has turned the tables. With its BE.6 Batman Edition, the auto maker is not only offering a car; it’s offering a chunk of Gotham, customized for Indian roads. Developed with Warner Bros. Discovery, and inspired by The Dark Knight Trilogy, the BE.6 Batman Edition combines film, comic and motorcar passion into one vehicle that will make even the most jaded petrolhead grin.
Only 300 examples exist. Which means this isn’t mass production — this is mythmaking.
The Design – Where Superhero Meets SUV
One glance at the BE.6 Batman Edition and you understand that this is no ordinary electric SUV. The satin black paint job mix with aggressive creases, sharp lines, and a hunkered-down posture that seems to be ready to crime fight. Tasteful Batman logos are splashed across the body, but not obnoxiously so, just enough to catch the attention of anyone familiar with the Bat-Signal.
Gold-accented accents on the alloys and suspension parts bring a unique touch — its like Bruce Wayne flashing some gold bling at a Gotham event. The 20-inch alloys just fill up the arches to a seeded giving a muscular stance.
This ain’tcosplay. This is car theater.
Inside the Cabin – A Dark Knight’s Lounge
Step in, and Mahindra has made sure the drama does not stop. The interior is swathed in charcoal black leather and suede, embroidered in elegant gold that sparkles without being too loud. It is premium, almost like being on the big screen.
The first thing you’ll find out? The twin-screen digital dashboard that welcomes you with a Batman-esque animation every time you begin driving. It’s not a trick – it’s immersion.
The seats breathe, the panoramic sunroof lets in sunlight when you please, and the ambient lighting can cycle through 64 hues to suit your mood. Even the key fob is specially designed for this version, sporting the Batman logo like a badge of honor.
And for the serious collectors — every SUV also has a numbered brushed-gold plaque, identifying it as one of the 300. That plaque alone will make this model a collector’s item in the future.
The Heart of the beast – Performance With Range
Looks are nice, but a Batman-themed SUV has to be matched by performance. Behind the sophisticated design is a 79 kWh battery pack that boasts a whopping 682 km (ARAI-certified) range. That’s highway cruisers, not city driving.
The 286 hp and 380 Nm of torque mean that it isn’t all about efficiency — it’s got oomph. Zero to 100 km/h in about 6.5 seconds is enough to remind you that this isn’t just another electric car — it’s a superhero’s vehicle.
Charging is also impressive. With DC fast-charging, the BE.6 will recharge from 20% to 80% in just 20 minutes. Time enough for a sip of tea, and enough power for another mission.
Safety – Batman’s Armor in the Real World
Batman never goes into battle unarmored. The BE.6 Batman Edition isn’t armored in the comic book sense, but it does come close enough for roads in the real world.
You get six airbags, a high-strength Born Electric architecture built to global crash standards, and ADAS Level 2 driver assistance — adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and autonomous emergency braking. Add to that a 360-degree camera, blind spot monitoring, and ISOFIX mounts for child seats, and you’re looking at one of the safest EV SUVs in India.
Capabilities – Built for More Than Show
There are some special editions that are specifically made for flexing, but Mahindra has made sure the Batman Edition is actually roadworthy. The ground clearance of the SUV makes it a comfortable bet for Indian roads, the suspension is set for the city comfort and highway surety, and the boot space is big enough for weekend family road trips.
Connectivity is future-proof with 5G readiness, over-the-air updates, and an infotainment system that connects cleanly to smartphones. It’s not merely a collector’s car — it’s a daily driver with superhero credentials.
Price and Availability – Exclusivity Has a Price Tag
The BE.6 Batman Edition is priced at 27.8 lakh (ex-showroom). For a premium EV with such exclusivity, it’s actually a enticing figure.
But here’s the catch: there are only 300 units available. Bookings start on 23rd August 2025, and deliveries commence from 20th September 2025 — which coincidentally is International Batman Day. If that’s not marketing brilliance, I don’t know what is.
The word is out: if you wish to have one, you'll need to be quicker than the Bat-Signal illuminates the heavens.
