In an unexpected but exciting twist, India’s leading automaker, Mahindra, has teamed up with Warner Bros. Discovery to create something truly unique for superhero fans – the 2025 Mahindra BE 6 Batman Edition. Scheduled to launch in September on International Batman Day, this limited-edition electric SUV merges modern EV technology with the dark, mysterious world of DC Comics’ most iconic hero.

A Surprising Collaboration

When you think of Batman, you probably picture the Batmobile, armored gadgets, or even the iconic Bat-Signal lighting up Gotham’s night sky. What you don’t expect is an Indian carmaker stepping into the superhero spotlight. Mahindra, which is more commonly associated with tractors, rugged SUVs, and even Formula E racing, has now ventured into the world of themed electric vehicles.

India is home to a massive community of Batman fans. With a population of nearly 1.5 billion, even a small percentage of dedicated Dark Knight enthusiasts represents a huge market. That’s likely why Mahindra decided to build only 300 special units of this Batman Edition BE 6 – making it both exclusive and collectible.

The Vehicle Behind the Mask

The Mahindra BE 6 itself isn’t brand-new. First introduced in 2024, it is the second fully electric SUV in Mahindra’s BE lineup. But for 2025, Mahindra has given it a complete makeover inspired by Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy.

It is powered by a 79-kWh battery pack, producing 282 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque, all of which are sent to the rear wheels. While the performance is designed for daily driving rather than chasing villains through Gotham, the sharp, angular body design gives it a futuristic, stealthy appearance that fits Batman’s persona.

Exclusive Batman Styling

Where this SUV truly stands out is in its design details. Mahindra has gone all-in on Batman branding, making sure fans feel the connection at every glance:

• Exterior Details:
  
  • Satin black paint finish, exclusive to this edition.
  • Alchemy Gold badging inspired by the Dark Knight trilogy.
  • Custom 20-inch wheels with matching silver center caps.
  • Gold-painted brake calipers and suspension springs.
  • Batman decals on the doors and a “BE 6 x The Dark Knight” badge at the rear.
  • Carpet Lamps that project the Bat-Signal onto the ground when you unlock the car.
    
• Interior Features:
  • A panoramic Infinity Roof with the Batman emblem etched into the glass.
  • Charcoal leather and suede upholstery with gold stitching.
  • The Dark Knight emblem is embossed on the seats and dashboard trim.
  • Gold accents throughout the cabin – including the steering wheel, parking brake button, and even the key fob.
  • A numbered plaque finished in Alchemy Gold for exclusivity.
  • Batman-themed animations in the infotainment system and a unique exterior sound inspired by the Batmobile.

Price and Availability

The Mahindra BE 6 Batman Edition is priced at the equivalent of USD 31,827 in India – far more affordable than Hollywood’s famous Tumbler Batmobile, which costs upwards of $3 million. Unfortunately for U.S. fans, Mahindra does not sell passenger vehicles in America, meaning this collector’s SUV is exclusive to the Indian market.
Pre-orders open on August 20, 2025, and deliveries are set to begin on September 20, 2025 – perfectly timed with International Batman Day celebrations.

Why It Matters

This collaboration isn’t just about selling cars; it’s about blending pop culture and mobility. By tapping into Batman’s massive global fanbase, Mahindra has found a way to generate excitement around its electric vehicle lineup. It’s also a reminder that the automotive industry is increasingly embracing themed and limited-edition vehicles to attract younger, tech-savvy buyers who value uniqueness and storytelling.

Final Thoughts

The 2025 Mahindra BE 6 Batman Edition may not replace the Batmobile, but it delivers something more practical: a stylish, electric SUV that celebrates one of the most beloved superheroes of all time. With only 300 units available, it’s likely to sell out quickly in India. For fans elsewhere, it remains a fascinating example of how the Dark Knight’s influence continues to extend beyond comics and movies—this time, into the world of electric mobility.
