Hyundai Creta Electric vs Mahindra BE 6: See How The Recent Most Talked About Electric SUVs Compare

The Hyundai Creta Electric has been recently revealed in full, while the Mahindra BE 6 has been basking in the limelight for some time now, despite its unprecedented tussles over the name. Both electric vehicles are set to be showcased at the upcoming Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025 starting on January 17 and are creating buzz for all the right reasons. If you're intrigued by these two EVs, let's dive deeper to see how they compare on paper:

Hyundai Creta Electric vs Mahindra BE 6: Prices

*Expected Prices

The price details for both electric SUVs are yet to be revealed, but they are likely to be announced at the Auto Expo in 2025. Mahindra has officially disclosed only the starting price of the BE 6, which is expected to command a slight premium over the Creta Electric, given its extensive feature set.

Let’s explore this further.

Hyundai Creta Electric vs Mahindra BE 6: Dimensions

Well, the Mahindra BE 6 is noticeably a bigger car compared to the Hyundai Creta Electric. The Creta Electric hasn’t surpassed its ICE sibling in size and remains justifiably compact, shorter and narrower than the BE 6, except that it stands taller than the BE 6, thanks to its roof rails.

Hyundai Creta Electric vs Mahindra BE 6: Features

As evident from the feature list, the Hyundai Creta Electric falls short when compared to the extensive feature set of the Mahindra BE 6. The BE 6 boasts larger alloy wheels, bigger screens, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, illumination in its glass roof, memory function for its ventilated seats, an additional wireless charger, double the number of speakers found in the Creta Electric, auto-parking, and enhanced safety with an extra airbag.

That said, the Hyundai Creta Electric is still a well-equipped SUV, holding its ground without missing out on too much. However, this competition is far from over, as both carmakers are likely to unveil additional features for their respective models at the Auto Expo 2025.

Hyundai Creta Electric vs Mahindra BE 6: Powertrain

The powertrain setups of the two SUVs differ significantly. The Hyundai Creta Electric’s bigger battery capacity is still smaller than the smaller battery offered in the Mahindra BE 6. In fact, the Creta Electric comes with the smallest battery pack in its segment. While the BE 6 delivers impressive performance with its larger batteries and higher power output, the Creta Electric counters with an impressive 0-100 kmph sprint, trailing the BE 6 by only a slight margin.

All things considered, the Hyundai Creta Electric and Mahindra BE 6 are not evenly matched contenders in this battle. The BE 6, being more feature-packed and loaded with advanced tech, is expected to command a premium too. On the other hand, the Creta Electric is poised to appeal to the practical family buyer, offering a more familiar and straightforward package under a trusted nameplate. While the BE 6 exudes a cool and futuristic vibe, it may feel a bit alien to some buyers.

Both the SUVs have the Tata Curvv EV and upcoming Maruti Suzuki e Vitara as well as its rebadge – the Toyota Urban Cruiser as their rivals.
