Mahindra recently launched the Batman Version of the BE 6 in collaboration with DC Comics and honestly, it got us thinking — Which electric car would our favorite superhero pick? After much contemplation, this is what we think best suits these guys. Let us know if you see the vision!
Batman — Mahindra BE6
Well okay, this one is obvious. Mahindra’s new Batman Edition has the internet going Gaga over it. The Batmobile (yes, that’s what we’re calling it now) is decked out in tech that has set a standard for all EVs in India, with a huge 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen and gives a range up to 683 km on a single charge.
And hey, Batman doesn’t have the time to charge his own car and the BE6 has it handled with a DC fast charging time of just 20 minutes (20% to 80%).
Ant-Man — MG Comet EV
Hear me out, guys. Ant-Man can shrink down, right? Well, what better fit for him than the smallest EV in India? Despite its compact size, the MG Comet EV is full of practical features.
Fitted with a 17.3 kWh battery pack, it gives a range of 230 km. With a dual 10.25-inch displays, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and over 55 connected car features, it is a great choice for the tiny superhero.
Captain America — Tata Harrier EV
Now, our favorite super-soldier knows nothing about self-preservation so he obviously would pick a car that can survive even the worst of the worst. Which is why I think Tata Harrier EV would be a perfect fit for him. If you guys remember the Quad-day, this is the car that pulled an entire tank all by itself.
The Tata Harrier EV is an all-electric SUV with dual-motor all-wheel drive and a range of up to 627 km on a single charge. Offering two battery pack options, 65 kWh and 75 kWh, it features a host of advanced technologies like a 14.5-inch Samsung QLED infotainment display, JBL sound system with Dolby Atmos, and a 540-degree surround view camera.
Flash — MG Cyberster
For our favorite speedster, obviously we would choose the fastest accelerating car in all of Asia. The MG Cyberster actually goes from 0 to 100 kmph in just 3.2 seconds!
The MG Cyberster is an all-electric roadster with a 77 kWh battery pack, delivering a claimed range of 580 km. It features a dual-motor all-wheel-drive powertrain, producing 503 bhp and 725 Nm of torque and a top speed of 200 kmph. So it truly is a sports car worthy of Flash.
Black Widow — MG ZS EV
Remember how the Black Widow used to be an assassin and then became a beloved hero? Well, the MG ZS EV has a similar story. Initially marketed as a personal use e-SUV, it has also gained popularity in the premium taxi service sector.
The MG ZS EV boasts a 50.3 kWh battery pack, delivering a range of 461 km on a single charge. It produces 174.33 bhp and 280 Nm of torque, paired with an automatic transmission. It also offers a 10.1-inch infotainment screen, a digital instrument cluster, auto-dimming rear-view mirror and more.
Aquaman — BYD Sealion 7
Much like Aquaman who is half-human and half-Atlantean and spends half his time on land, sea lions are known for being semi-aquatic too. So, what better fit for the King of Atlantis than a car that is named after this animal?
The BYD Sealion 7 is an electric SUV fitted with a 82.56 kWh battery, offering a range up to 567 km. It also comes fitted with a 15.6-inch rotating touchscreen, a 12-speaker Dynaudio sound system, and a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster.
Dr. Strange — Tata Avinya Concept
For this time-travelling hero, we have chosen a car from the future. The Tata Avinya concept is truly something out of its time.
The Tata Avinya X Concept boasts a bold, futuristic design, highlighted by its expanded 'T' LED logo on the front and rear, clean fascia, and coupe-like silhouette. With active aero elements and aero-optimized wheels, the concept aims for efficiency and performance.
Inside, the Avinya X Concept emphasizes luxury, comfort, and sustainability. It features a lounge-inspired 4-seater cabin, fabric-wrapped sound bars, hidden AC vents, and an aroma diffuser, creating a serene and refreshing atmosphere.
Harley Quinn — Hyundai Ioniq 5
For the psychologist-turned-villain, we have chosen a car that really belongs on the race tracks. While not the same as the Hyundai Creta EV, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 is a true head-turner and we know Harley loves being the center of attention so its perfect for her.
With a claimed range of 631 km, this EV has a top speed of 185 kmph, and a torque of 350 Nm. With a 12.3-inch infotainment system and driver display, it comes with a 72.6 kWh battery pack and rear-wheel-drive (RWD) and a beautiful front fascia with parametric pixel LED lights and an aerodynamic design.
Wonder Woman — Kia EV6
Princess Diana, aka Wonder Woman, embodies strength, resilience, and unstoppable energy. The Kia EV6, with its high performance, instant torque, and bold stance, mirrors that same unstoppable force on the road. Wonder Woman is a timeless icon who seamlessly blends myth with modernity and the EV6, with its futuristic design and cutting-edge EV technology, represents the future of mobility while standing out as iconic in its segment.
Equipped with a 84 kWh battery pack, the Kia EV6 offers a range of 663 km and a top speed of 192 kmph.
Iron Man — Volvo EX30
We all know Tony Stark will never settle for anything less than perfect when it comes to his modes of transportation. Which is why we have picked the Volvo EX30 for Mr. Stark for a completely modern and futuristic aesthetic.
The blanked-off grille, slim LED headlights with Thor’s Hammer DRLs (yes, that Thor), and pixel-style taillights give the Volvo EX30 a unique look. It comes equipped with features like a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment, dual-zone auto AC, and NFC card key. Equipped with a 69 kWh battery pack, it offers a 0 to 100 kmph acceleration time of just 5.3 seconds.
So what do you think? Did we get it right? In our opinion, anyone who spends a considerable time saving the world would also focus on saving energy and cost (because superhero shenanigans don’t pay the bills). And what better way to do that than switching to an EV?
