Napoli Black: It is one of the most favorite color choices among car buyers. The glossy black finish gives a more premium look to the BE 6e and looks very premium.

Firestorm Orange

Firestorm Orange: Firestorm orange is a dynamic, hot, and vivid color. This kind of colour attracts immediate notice and offers striking appeal, with a sporty and energetic character for the BE 6e, thus perfecting the ideal vehicle for individuals who are bold and love being different.

Everest White Satin

Everest White Satin: White is a classic shade which is also often regarded as one of the safest colour choices in India. This shade reflects a fresh and clean appearance for any car and BE 6e is no exception.
