Mahindra plans more special-edition models after BE 6 Batman's success
What's the story
Mahindra has announced plans to introduce more special-edition models themed around Batman across its lineup, following the overwhelming response for the BE 6 Batman Edition. The limited-run electric SUV was initially offered as a collector's edition of just 300 units, but due to high demand, Mahindra decided to produce an additional 699 units. The Batman Edition is based on the flagship Pack 3 variant of the BE 6 and comes at a price tag of ₹27.79 lakh (ex-showroom).

The interior boasts suede-leather upholstery with gold stitching, a numbered edition plaque, and ambient lighting with 16 million color options. Despite the unique design elements, the performance of this special edition remains unchanged from the standard Pack 3 model.
