We own two cars: a 2024 top-line manual Taigun and a 2025 GT Line VW. My daily city run is about 70 km and my wifeโs is about 40 km. Should we buy an EV given our usage, and should we consider selling one of the cars? We are doctors and both cars are great to drive, so we are unsure what makes the most sense.
Yes, the Volkswagen Taigun is a lot of fun to drive, however if you are open to going electric, you could sell one and get an EV. That way, you will still have an internal combustion car for any occasional highway trips.
Since both you and your wife's daily drive is within the city, either of you could use the EV, and range would not be an issue. Also, besides the lower running costs, you could also benefit from things like toll and parking fee waivers for EVs in certain cities.
Consider the Hyundai Creta EV, which is a no-nonsense and practical car. However, if you do want a fun-to-drive electric, check out the Mahindra XEV 9S, or even the Mahindra BE6, which is very exciting to drive but has quite a few ergonomic issues.

I am planning to buy an EV primarily for city use as a self-driver. My app runs about 600 km per month, and my budget is around โน20 lakh (can stretch if needed). I have ruled out the BE 6 due to its rear seat, and I find the Tiago and Tigor have cheap-filling plastics inside. I am considering the Nexon or the Curve. My priorities are comfort, easy ingress and exit, reliability and good resale value. What do you recommend?
The Hyundai Creta EV would be a good choice; the ride comfort is excellent, the space inside is good, and it is very well loaded. Ingress and egress are natural and easy, and the car is very reliable with all of the powertrain as well as the body electronics well sorted. As for resale value, it's hard to predict that for any EV currently, as benchmarks have not yet been set.

Asked by: Indrajeet Singhon Dec 7, 2025
I am planning to upgrade from my Grand i10 Nios to an automatic SUV. Initially, I was inclined towards diesel vehicles for better mileage, like the Creta SX, Harrier, and HyCross GX. Recently, however, I test drove the Creta EV and MG ZS and was impressed by them as well. If I am aiming for a 400km stretch on the highway, which EV should I pick, or should I stick to diesel vehicles only? My budget is Rs 23 lakh maximum.
An electric car makes very good sense in the city, where the range isn't an issue, and the lack of a gearbox means a smooth drive in start-stop traffic. For highways, however, it's important you look at elevation as well as the total distance you will be driving.
For your 400 km trip, you would already be at the edge of the Hyundai Creta's range, and if there are steep and long hill sections, your range will drop significantly. While you will recover some of it on the return (downhill), it won't be as much as you have expended. You would thus need a charge halt to complete the trip comfortably.
If you are ok with this, we would recommend the Hyundai Creta Electric. It has the edge over the MG on real-world range, and it's a very well finished, no-nonsense EV that goes about doing its job with great effectiveness.

Hello. I currently drive a 13-year-old Honda Brio and am planning to buy a new mini-SUV or SUV with a โน20 lakh on-road budget. My monthly running will be about 1,000-1,500 km. Which fuel type is better for long-term ownership - petrol, hybrid, or electric - and which models should I consider?
Opting for an electric SUV could be save you from a lot of uncertainties in the future around fuel mix, registration validity, etc., which might concern ICE vehicle owners.
With a budget of Rs 20 lakh, the most sensible and trouble-free EV option is an entry-level Hyundai Creta Electric. If you want space, features and a fully-loaded car, the MG Windsor EV is also a good option to consider.
The entry-level Mahindra BE 6 is a stand-out EV that also falls within your Rs 20 lakh budget.

Hi sir, I own a 2016 Hyundai Creta 1.6 diesel SX with 1.17 lakh km on the odometer. I am planning to replace it with a budget of up to โน30 lakh. I drive 60 km on alternate days with a mix of highway and city usage. I want a vehicle with at least the same power and fuel efficiency as my current car. Also, should I consider an EV?
Considering your usage, an electric car makes a lot of sense, and within your budget, you have quite a few current and upcoming options. If you want something that feels familiar but is a proper upgrade in terms of tech, driving, and comfort, you can go for the Hyundai Creta Electric. It is powerful enough, has a good range, is creamy smooth to drive and is a well-rounded product.
If you want something larger with more range and performance, you can consider the Mahindra XEV 9e. It is more spacious, has a larger boot, a bigger battery pack that gives it a longer range, and it offers more tech as well.
If you are willing to wait a bit, the Tata Sierra EV is just around the corner, and a seven-seat version of the 9e named the Mahindra XEV 9S is coming as well.

Asked by: Sathish Kumar reddy DONAPATIon Nov 19, 2025
I have been using a diesel car for the past 10 years. My daily commute is 25 to 30 km, with occasional long drives of around 300 km once a month. I want to switch to an electric car this time. Is it a good idea to buy an EV now? I am from a Tier 3 city in Andhra Pradesh, and I like feature-rich EVs. Please suggest one around Rs 25 to 30 lakh.
An EV certainly beats a diesel when it comes to running cost and efficiency, but the biggest trade-off, especially for you, will be the long range. Diesel cars are known for their strong one-tank range and the ability to find a diesel pump almost everywhere in the country.
An EV, on the other hand, heavily relies on route planning and charging infrastructure. While the network of chargers is increasing by the day, it is still nowhere close to the availability of fuel pumps, and the charging times are a lot slower in comparison to a fill-up.
So if you need one for your daily commute, the electric car will be excellent as it is refined and cheaper to run, but for your outstation trips, you will need to do a fair bit of planning and check for chargers on your route and factor in the waiting time as well.
If you go for an EV, a home charger is absolutely essential, and it is also important to note for voltage fluctuations. Tier 3 cities usually have frequent power cuts, and high demand leads to a load on the power grids, which can mean the charger does not have enough juice to charge your car.
If everything checks out, though, the Hyundai Creta electric is an excellent package that has good range, all the essential features and is great for occasional long trips too. If not, this Hyundai car also has a very good diesel engine with the same features and equipment as the Electric, and will take away most of the EV downsides.

I want to buy a 5-seater SUV. My usage is mostly in the city, around 300 km a month. Iโm looking for something a level above the Tata Nexon in both budget and size. What would you recommend?
In the midsize SUV segment, you have several good options. The Hyundai Creta is a segment favourite and for good reason - it is a great all-rounder and offers a wide array of engines and gearboxes. This Hyundai car is spacious, comfortable, practical, and loaded with features too.
Considering your usage is so minimal, however, you could even consider an EV, which has the lowest running costs and the smoothest drive experience. The Creta Electric, like its ICE counterparts, is a great option, or if your budget is tighter, consider the MG Windsor.

I am planning to buy a new car, the first one in my family. My daily commute will be around 50 km, mostly within the city. I have no specific preference between ICE or EV, but I like the BE6. Is it okay to choose it as my first car as a novice driver?
The Mahindra BE6 is a fun and exciting car, but it isn't the ideal choice for a new driver. It is quite powerful, and the performance can catch inexperienced drivers off guard. Moreover, the BE6 is wide, and visibility isn't the best, which could cause some discomfort.
Among electric vehicles of a similar price, the Hyundai Creta Electric makes for a generally more user-friendly choice and is the one we'd recommend you consider.

Asked by: Sunil satheon Oct 30, 2025
I want to buy an electric SUV in the โน20-22 lakh range โ which is the best option?
The Hyundai Creta Electric with the long-range battery is a very good option that has features, good range and comfort. If you want more space, the Kia Carens Clavis EV has the same powertrain as the Creta and features set too. Either one of these two will be good.

My running is around 2,500 to 3,000 kilometres every month. I currently drive an i20 CRDi diesel and have covered 3,70,000 kilometres over the last 15 years. Which would be a better choice for me, a strong hybrid or an electric vehicle? Should I wait a little longer for better models?
An electric vehicle will prove to be far more economical for you if you primarily plan to charge it at home. Most new-age EVs like the Mahindra BE6, Hyundai Creta EV and Tata Harrier EV can comfortably handle highway trips of around 300โ400 km on a single charge. So yes, if you have access to home charging, an EV would be the better choice for you.
