if your monthly running is 1500 km or above with majority city driving then harrier EV makes a lot of sense. you will enjoy the upgrade along with lower running expense benefits. very good choice for high city mileage users

harrier ev hands down is better choice. suspension setup and real world comfort is far better. physical buttons make a lot of difference on highways. planted ride at high speed and excellent road presence. very confident vehicle at all speeds

I am planning to buy an EV car for my daily travelling of 100 km on the highway with 3 to 4 passengers and 200 kg of luggage. I am looking for a safe, low-maintenance, and efficient car. Budget is below ₹25 lakh. I am confused between the Tata Harrier EV, Mahindra XEV 9S, and Maruti e Vitara 61 kWh. Please suggest or recommend any other option, considering efficiency and safety.

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.

Hello Team. We are planning for a bigger car and are currently confused about whether buying a Harrier EV Stealth Edition makes sense, or if we should buy a used Innova Crysta and use it for 3-4 years and wait for EV infrastructure to develop more, as most of our running is on highways.

The Tata Harrier EV with the 74.61kWh battery pack is capable of delivering a highway real-world range of over 400km quite easily. So, if your highway round-trip is usually less than 400km, you can comfortably make it back to your starting point on a single charge. Even if you usually drive for longer distances, you'll need to plan your breaks or rest stops at places where there are fast charging options, along the way. In fact, even a 15-20 minute top-up on a 60kW DC fast charger will add an additional 120-140km of range.Yes, there are some challenges like chargers not working, or lack of electricity, or some ICE vehicle blocking the charging bay, hence you need to ensure you identify a few options (not just one place) on the way. To answer your question, go for the Harrier EV Stealth Edition. It'll feel a lot more special and the driving pleasure will be far greater than a used Toyota Innova Crysta.

Hi Autocar Expert, I currently own a Tata Nexon XZA diesel and am planning to upgrade. However, I have a major parking constraint at my home. I am interested in the Toyota Innova Hycross, but if it is parked in my parking space, the doors cannot be opened properly due to limited space. Because of this, I am considering buying a car that offers an automatic or self-parking feature. Could you please guide me on which cars offer this feature and would suit my situation?

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.

I am planning to buy an EV, as I see the cost of a near top-end petrol vehicle is similar to a near top-end EV. I am confused between the Tata Harrier EV and XEV 9S (not because it’s a 7-seater, though). The XEV 9S cabin looks much more premium than the Harrier EV. However, hearing about the suspension in the 9S is a bit of a concern. I would mostly use it in the city. Can you suggest?

Since you are considering the Tata Harrier EV, we assume that having seven seats is not a must. In that case, you could also consider the XEV 9e, which is the more direct competitor to the Harrier EV. It has largely the same premium cabin you like in the XEV 9S, but without the third row of seats.In terms of suspension, the Mahindra XEV 9S has a softer setup than the XEV 9e, which results in noticeable vertical movement on undulating tarmac. It isn’t exactly uncomfortable, but it can feel a bit unsettling out on the highway. The XEV 9e, on the other hand, has a firmer setup and actually feels more composed because of it.Since most of your driving is in the city, the XEV 9S’s softer suspension may not bother you, but do drive the XEV 9e back-to-back to see which you prefer.

Hi, I am a 38-year-old surgeon with a daily travel of 100 km, split between city roads (50%) and state highways (50%). I am currently driving a 2018 Amaze and facing high fuel costs (around ₹8,000 weekly). I am looking to switch to an electric automatic SUV in the ₹20-35 lakh budget. I have considered the Harrier EV, XEV 9S, and Creta EV. Kindly suggest the right car (new or used) among these or any other suitable option.

The Hyundai Creta Electric is much smaller than the Tata Harrier EV and Mahindra XEV 9S, making it relatively much lighter than the other cars. It also has the smallest battery pack compared to the others, but on account of its lower kerb weight, it is a lot more efficient, and you can expect around 430km on a single charge with mixed usage.Hyundai has also improved the battery's DC fast-charging capability recently, so charging times are also much lower. Furthermore, it is the most sorted electric SUV you can buy, with logical ergonomics and a clutter-free user interface/experience. Also, with no or minimal glitches, the Hyundai is much more reliable than the other two, and one that's very easy to recommend.Since you have a budget of up to Rs 35 lakh, you could look for a Hyundai Ioniq 5. The Ioniq 5 is an outstanding electric car, and for all its merits, it even won our 2024 Car of the Year. It will be a bit more effort to source one, but because a facelift is expected soon, dealers will try to liquidate existing stock at mouth-watering discounts.
