I own a Honda CB H’ness 350, but I don’t feel connected with it. I’ve been a big fan of KTM since my first bike, the Duke 125. I’m now looking for an option with good pillion comfort. My usage is mostly city rides, with occasional touring with a pillion. My maximum budget is ₹3 lakh (ex-showroom). I’m 5'6" tall and weigh 80kg.

With a budget of Rs 15 lakh and 3,500 km a month, you are a textbook case for an EV. At this budget, the Tata Nexon EV is the most sensible choice. It offers a good balance of range, practicality and value, and Tata’s EV ecosystem is now well established. The Nexon EV is also one of the few cars in this price bracket that can genuinely handle your kind of monthly running without range anxiety becoming a daily concern.If you can stretch your budget slightly, the Kia Syros EV is worth considering. It offers a more spacious cabin and a more premium overall experience, which makes a difference if you are spending long hours in the car every month.The key point here is that at 3,500 km a month, the fuel savings from an EV will add up very quickly, and both the Nexon EV and Syros EV are well suited to high-mileage ownership.
