Since you are open to buying an EV, the Mahindra XEV 9e is a good option to consider.

Based on your requirements, the Tata Sierra EV is the recommendation. It offers a genuinely fresh design, a spacious and comfortable second row, and a premium cabin experience that feels new and different from the usual options. The Sierra EV also delivers a good balance of range and practicality for your predominantly city usage with occasional highway trips. The Tata Harrier EV is a strong product, but as you rightly pointed out, the feature-rich variants start to push well beyond your budget. The Sierra EV, on the other hand, gives you a more distinctive ownership experience with added practicality. The 63kWh version should be adequate for your usage, but if you want a bit more buffer in terms of range for your highway trips, then stretch for the 75kWh version.

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.

For your needs, the Mahindra XEV 9S makes the most sense. Go for the Pack One trim, but opt for the larger 79kWh battery pack. During our real-world tests, the XEV 9S 79kWh version delivered a combined range of 477km, but since your usage is primarily on the highway with four passengers and 200kg of luggage, expect that figure to drop noticeably. That said, your 100km commute should be no problem at all with the larger battery.Since you will be carrying a heavy load, you will appreciate the large boot and flat loading lip. The Tata Harrier EV, in comparison, has a smaller boot and a slightly raised floor to accommodate the rear motor. Before you make your final decision, do take a detailed test drive.

Auto parking might not solve your problem if your parking space is too narrow to open the doors. The summon feature that the Tata Harrier EV gets could be of some use, but it won’t fit your requirements if you need a three-row vehicle like the Toyota Innova Hycross.Instead, we suggest you take a look at the Kia Carens Clavis. It is narrower than the Hycross by about 45-50mm and is roughly the same width as your Nexon, so it should fit in your parking space. In terms of interior volume, while it is not as spacious as the Hycross, it offers plenty of room in the second row and a genuinely usable third row.
