The fact that mecanum is "less powerful" is a common misconception - mecanum is *not* omni holonomic,

Mecanum is

and the only difference in power is the difference in coefficient of friction with the floor between the roller material and the material of your six wheel drive wheels.

If by "power" you mean "maximum force" this is not correct. Even with the same material on the mec and the 6WD, the mec will have less maximum pushing force, as explained in many posts here on CD.
