Second Mahindra BE 6 Crash Surfaces: Cabin Intact, Passengers Safe [Video]
Just a few days ago, a video showing the aftermath of an accident between a Mahindra BE 6 electric SUV and a Datsun Go Plus was shared online. Now, most recently, we have got ourselves another video of a different Mahindra BE 6 crash. This time, this SUV was involved in a crash with a Hyundai Xcent cab. We can note that the BE 6 has suffered quite a lot of damage on the front as well as the rear. However the passengers in both the Mahindra BE 6 and Hyundai Xcent were safe.
Mahindra BE 6 rear end crash
This video, showing the aftermath of a crash between a BE 6 and a Hyundai Xcent cab, has been shared on Instagram by MekalurPrabhat on their channel. In this short clip, we can note that a red-colored Mahindra BE 6 SUV was parked on the side of the road with heavy damage on the front right side. We can see that despite the damage, the LED turn indicators were working.
The entire front right side of the bumper, including the LED headlight and other parts, was damaged. Following the front end, the video then shows the damage on the front right side of the Hyundai Xcent cab. After this, it shows the rear left side of the BE 6, and we can note that there are some damages there as well.
Most likely, the crash took place after the Hyundai Xcent cab hit the rear left side of the BE 6. We can observe that the bumper and the left rear cladding of this SUV were destroyed during the crash. Now, whether the BE 6 was drivable after this particular accident has not been reported, unlike the previous accident.
Who was at fault for this accident?
At the moment, the exact details of how this crash took place have not been shared. However, as mentioned earlier, it looks like this accident took place after the cab hit the BE 6 from the rear left side. It must have then caused the vehicle to hit something on the front. Now, whether it was a vehicle or a pole cannot be determined from this short video.
Public reactions
A number of netizens in the comment section of this video are blaming the Mahindra BE 6 driver. However, there are some people who have highlighted that it looks like a rear-end accident. Apart from these, most people have commented that the BE 6 is a very powerful car with its 282 bhp and 380 Nm of torque powertrain. And a lot of drivers cannot handle this much power.
Mahindra BE 6 and Datsun Go Plus accident
As stated earlier, just a few days ago, a video became viral on the internet. In this particular video, as well, a BE 6 was seen with damage on the rear left corner. This time around, as well, it was a rear-end accident. However, strangely, it was reported that the BE 6 was undrivable.
Many people highlighted that this stall must have been caused due to the presence of a lot of sensors. As we all know, the BE 6 is an extremely tech-loaded vehicle, and such cars require a lot of sensors to function perfectly. Hence, during the accident, some of the sensors could have been damaged, which caused the vehicle to not function.
Apart from this, there were speculations that the Pyro fuse of this vehicle could have been triggered. For those who may not be aware, this is a fuse that is placed on the terminal of the battery. And in case of any major accident, this fuse gets triggered and disconnects the battery to avoid any further damage to the vehicle.
