Mahindra BE 6, XEV 9e create history with highest ever 5-star Bharat-NCAP safety rating

Kolkata, Jan 16 (UNI) Mahindra has created history with its Electric Origins eSUVs, the BE 6 and XEV 9e securing the top 5-star safety rating with the highest ever score on the Bharat New Car Assessment Programme (Bharat-NCAP).
The milestone achievement sets new standards of manufacturing safe SUVs as the company embarks on its electric era, according to a media statement here on Thursday.

The XEV 9e chalked up a perfect score with a 32/32 tally in tests evaluating adult occupant protection. It followed that up with a score of 45/49 in the child occupant protection tests.
The BE 6, meanwhile, scored a near perfect 31.97/32 for adult occupant protection and matched the XEV 9e’s 45/49 score in the child occupant protection tests.

This makes them not only the safest EVs but also the safest SUVs on Indian roads as evaluated by Bharat-NCAP, underlining Mahindra’s long-standing commitment to safety.

R Velusamy, President - Automotive Technology and Product Development, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd, and Joint Managing Director, Mahindra Electric Automobile said, “The BE 6 and XEV 9e mark the start of a new era not only for Mahindra, but also for automotive safety in India. Built on INGLO architecture and powered by the most powerful mind in the automotive world – MAIA, BE 6 and XEV 9e are engineered to set new standards on all fronts of the automotive experience. The results of the Bharat-NCAP tests are a testament to our commitment to safety and proof that we at Mahindra remain at the forefront of automotive safety, with a desire to continually push the envelope.”

The latest Bharat-NCAP results secure the BE 6 and XEV 9e a place among Mahindra’s growing family of 5-star rated vehicles. The Thar ROXX, XUV 3XO and XUV400 recently scored the top rating on the Bharat-NCAP scale while the XUV700 and Scorpio-N have earned a similar 5-star rating on the Global NCAP scale.
