The interior design of the BE 6e features an aircraft cockpit design split centre console. It features a two-spoke steering wheel with twin screens for the infotainment and for the instrument cluster which will likely measure more than 10.25 inches. The steering wheel features an illuminated BE logo, similar to what we’ve seen in Tata Motors cars and it has two toggle switches on either side with two regen buttons. Additionally, the BE 6e will also get futuristic-looking front seats with pillar-mounted headrests and it also gets a panoramic roof with a geometric pattern.

The XEV 9e on the other hand, gets a triple screen layout with more futuristic elements. The XEV 9e will also have a touch-based control panel, again similar to what we’ve seen in Tata Motors cars. It will place controls for the air conditioning, hazard lights and other functions. The centre console will house an illuminated gear selector which by the way looks like an upgraded version of the one seen in the XUV 400. It will house other controls such as an electronic parking brake switch, auto hold button, TCS and more. It will also feature a panoramic roof with an illuminated version of the new ‘Infinity’ logo motifs embedded.

The steering wheel gets toggle buttons for all the functions and also for ADAS functionalities. Other highlights include ambient lighting, leatherette upholstery, LED cabin lights, illuminated surrounds and more. It will be interesting to see how many of the cabin design elements shown here make it to the production model.
