A video recently went viral on Instagram showing a hilarious yet relatable moment between a car enthusiast and his mother. The owner of the car is a popular social media influencer from Kerala who also runs a car garage. Known for modifying almost every car he owns — including models like the Toyota Fortuner, Innova Crysta, Mercedes-Benz E-Class, and more — he recently added the Mahindra BE6 to his collection. This time, though, things didn’t go as planned.
What Happened in the Video?
The influencer’s mother had only one condition when her son brought home the Mahindra BE6 — not to modify it. She liked the clean and sober design of the EV and wanted at least one car in their garage to remain in stock condition.
Despite the warning, the vlogger gave the BE6 a bold new look by wrapping it in a bright yellow colour. The dual-tone appearance — with a yellow upper body and black lower cladding and frunk — gave the car a striking presence. But the twist? His mother had no idea about the makeover.
In the now-viral clip, the mother is seen resting inside their Toyota Fortuner, unaware of the surprise waiting outside. The vlogger excitedly leads her to the car with her eyes closed. But when she opens her eyes and sees the modified BE6, she’s visibly shocked. Within seconds, she chases him with a stick, scolding him for changing the car’s look without her permission. By the end of the video, she’s seen asking him to remove all the cars from the garage and leave the house!
Final Thoughts
The video is light-hearted and resonates with many Indian car lovers who’ve faced similar reactions at home. While the Mahindra BE6 remains stock mechanically, the yellow wrap has divided opinions online. Some find it stylish, while others feel it ruins the BE6’s clean design. Either way, the influencer’s fun attempt at personalizing his EV turned into a memorable (and viral) moment — one that many car enthusiasts can relate to!
