The Tata Harrier EV will be a good option for your requirements of good road presence and a top safety rating. The Harrier has an imposing look and has secured a 5-star crash rating in the Bharat NCAP tests. It also has raft of active safety features like ADAS that can help prevent an accident especially out on highways. Reliability is a mixed bag as there have been issues reported, though Tata Motors has been making many improvements, opt for the Harrier if you have a good dealer near you. If reliability is the main concern then opt for the Hyundai Creta EV, the powertrain, electronics as well as the entire mechanical package are well engineered and you should have a trouble-free ownership experience.

Go ahead with the Kia Seltos 1.5 petrol CVT (IVT). Your usage is 80% city and 20% highway, and you plan to keep the car for 10 years. In this scenario, a petrol automatic is the most sensible choice. The Seltos CVT is smooth, easy to drive in traffic and well suited to your usage pattern. It is also a proven product with a strong ownership track record.On ethanol blending, there is no need to worry. Modern petrol engines are engineered to handle E20, with a higher threshold for future blends. The impact is mainly a slight reduction in fuel economy, not a major long-term reliability concern.An EV only makes sense if you have home charging. If you were to consider an EV, the Hyundai Creta Electric would be our recommendation.

With a budget of Rs 16 lakh, the Hyundai Creta Electric is unfortunately out of reach. The Creta Electric is positioned as a premium EV and its starting price is higher than your budget. Even the base variant sits well above Rs 16 lakh, so there are no variants or options available within your price range.If you are set on an electric SUV, the Tata Nexon EV is the most realistic alternative. It offers a well-rounded package with good range, strong performance and a spacious cabin, and it is available in multiple variants within your budget.If you are open to stretching your budget, the Creta Electric is a strong product with a premium cabin, good range and Hyundai's strong service network, but it is not realistically available at Rs 16 lakh.

Yes, the Mahindra XEV 9S does have a more bouncy ride, and you would be better off with the Mahindra XEV 9E or the Hyundai Creta EV. If rear seat comfort is your absolute priority, the Mahindra XEV 9E may be the better option, as the rear seating area is more spacious than the Creta. That said, this Hyundai car is not uncomfortable by any standards and, in fact, also offers a very nice rear seat experience. Sit in both, as the seat shape and firmness of one may suit you better than the other. Overall, the 9E is the more peppy and fun-to-drive car, whereas the Creta EV is the better all-rounder.
