Celebrity’s Latest Electric Ride
Bollywood’s iconic Amitabh Bachchan was recently seen driving a striking red Mahindra BE 6 electric SUV. The vehicle is registered in his name (registration number GV1001) and is believed to be part of his private fleet rather than a one‑off event car.
Key Specifications of the Mahindra BE 6
Mahindra built the BE 6 on its proprietary electric architecture. The SUV is available in three distinct packs; Bachchan opted for the Pack Three, priced at ₹26.90 lakh ex‑showroom. It houses a 79 kWh battery pack delivering an impressive 683 km on a single charge.
Charging Speed and Range Details
With a 180 kW DC fast charger, the battery can charge from 0‑80 % in just 20 minutes. Using a regular 11.2 kW charger, a full charge takes roughly 11 hours, while a 7.2 kW unit completes it in about 8 hours.
Historical Background
Mahindra launched its first electric SUV in 2020, marking a turning point for the Indian EV market. Since then, the company has rolled out multiple variants, driving adoption among both everyday consumers and high‑profile personalities.
Why This Matters
BozokMedia analysis shows that when a stalwart like Amitabh embraces an electric vehicle, it accelerates EV acceptance across India and pushes manufacturers toward premium, high‑performance models for discerning buyers.
"Amitabh’s purchase signals that Indian celebrities are now treating electric mobility as their primary transport choice," says auto‑industry analyst Ravi Shankar.
