What Real-World Range Actually Looks Like

Claimed range figures are tested under MIDC (Modified Indian Driving Cycle) conditions. In real-world use — with AC on, city traffic, and highway speeds — expect roughly 70–80% of the claimed figure. So Mahindra BE 6’s 683 km becomes approximately 480–550 km in practice, which is still exceptional.
