A series of teasers from Mahindra have already revealed what the SUVs will look like after their debut. The XUV 9e, based on the XUV.e9 concept, retains most of the design elements seen in the concept. These include the triangular headlamps, flared wheel arches, sculpted bonnet, closed-off grille and full-width lightbar at the front. The coupe-like roofline of the vehicle was also visible in the teasers, along with the rear end of the 9e, which features a full-width lightbar as well. Inside, the 9e is expected to feature a unique three-screen layout with a dedicated co-driver display.

The BE 6e on the other hand gets a more squared-up design and retains most of the styling cues from the concept car it is based on, the BE.05. The design highlights of the BE 6e include the large headlamp clusters which are outlined by DRLs, vents on the bonnet, roof-mounted spoiler and prominent flared wheel arches. Mahindra has also confirmed that the BE 6e will get a panoramic sunroof while. Inside, the infotainment screen and digital instrument cluster will be part of a single large panoramic display.
