I recently bought the Harrier EV fearless plus model 75Kw model for an on-road price of Rs 26.5 lakhs. For that price, I think it's the best option you can have.

Tata Harrier EV will be a great choice with good range, performance, and unmatched road presence in the segment.

I recommend the Harrier EV for its highway ride and handling. The interiors are impressive, making it a great choice in this price range.

I own a Harrier EV top end stealth edition. The interior looks like a premium car with nice height and headroom. It has a grand road presence, but a few features are lagging. The sound system is next level. I didn't regret buying Harrier EV over XEV 9s.

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

Hello Autocar. Thank you for continuing to solve our doubts in such a genuine way. I have a small query. We currently own a 2022 Tata Altroz XZ+ diesel. Since I have to travel about 100km daily, we are planning to upgrade to an EV. However, everyone at home, including me, is attached to the Altroz and is looking for a similar experience. I wanted to ask if an Altroz EV is in the works or if there has been any development on that front. Otherwise, could you suggest whether the Punch EV or the Nexon EV would be better for a family of four?

Pick the Tata Nexon EV. It will feel closest to your Altroz while giving you more range cushion and more room for four. With 100 km daily, that larger battery and stronger AC performance mean less charging stress and easier weekend runs, and the Nexon’s wider rear seat and bigger boot make family life comfier. The Nexon's larger footprint also translates to greater confidence, especially at higher speeds.The Punch EV is a great value and very easy to drive in traffic. If your use is almost all city and parking is tight, the Punch EV can be considered as an option. However, for an Altroz owner used to that solid, grown-up feel, the Nexon EV will feel more familiar.About an Altroz EV, there’s nothing on sale or officially announced for the near term. Tata showed a concept years ago, but the current focus is Punch EV, Curvv EV, Harrier EV and Sierra. If you want an EV now, do not wait.

Dear Autocar Team, I am currently an ICE vehicle owner and am planning to switch to an EV. Since driving range is my biggest priority, I have narrowed my choice down to the Tata Harrier EV. I was particularly impressed by its ride comfort. At the moment, I am leaning towards the Fearless 75 ACFC variant and am also receiving some attractive offers on it. My question is: is it worth spending an additional Rs. 2 lakh or so for the ADAS variant? I undertake highway trips roughly once a month, but my day-to-day driving is mostly in city and rural conditions. Given my usage pattern, is it worth stretching my budget for the Empowered variant?

The Harrier EV is a good bet if range is a concern on your first EV as its large battery gives you a comfortable buffer even on highway journeys. And yes, as you've pointed out, the excellent ride quality should be helpful for your everyday use on city and rural roads. As for spending Rs 2 lakh extra for ADAS on the Empowered version, we don't think it's essential, as your highway use is only occasional, and even then, given how unpredictable highway conditions are, it's real-world efficacy is limited. There are few more features you'll lose out on too, like the larger 14.5-inch touchscreen, a powered tailgate and heads-up display, but these are more convenience features than essentials. The Fearless variant is very well equipped too, including with Cruise Control, which is really the feature you'll want on your highway runs. In conclusion, if you're getting the Fearless 75 at a good price, we think you should go for it.

Hi, I recently moved back to India and am planning to buy an EV as my primary and only car. My budget is around ₹25 lakh, and I am looking for a proper 5-seater that will mainly be used for city driving of around 15-20 km daily, along with occasional road trips. For the past six years, I have been driving Tesla models - first the Model 3 and later the Model Y - so I would ideally like to continue using an EV in India as well. However, I am still unsure about the practicality of the charging infrastructure here. I will be staying in a rented apartment near Outer Ring Road, Bellandur, Bengaluru. I have been informed that the residential community, which has around 2,000 apartments, currently has about 6-8 charging points, and the connected mall also has a few additional chargers. Could you please advise: Whether owning an EV as the only car in Bengaluru currently makes practical sense How reliable is the charging infrastructure in Bengaluru and across India for road trips Which EVs around ₹25 lakh would best suit my requirements in terms of comfort, technology, driving experience, reliability, range, and overall ownership experience Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Before committing to an EV, it is advisable to speak to electric car owners in the complex to know about the ease of charging. Public chargers in easy access are a plus, but the ideal and often most reliable solution is a charger in your own parking. Many housing complexes do not allow this, making it all the more important to research public charging options in the vicinity. In general, Bengaluru does have a wide network of chargers, so a weekly plug-in shouldn't be a hassle. Further, major highways south and west of the city have regular fast chargers, so planned roadtrips are very workable.Of the cars, the Hyundai Creta Electric is a sensible buy for your usage. It's a good size for Bangalore's traffic yet offers comfortable seating for five passengers. It won't match your Tesla's wow factor, but the Creta does pack in all the features that you would need and use over your short commutes. You can buy the 51.4kWh battery pack version, which offers ample range for your city drives. If you'd prefer a larger vehicle with more interior space, options include the Mahindra XEV 9S (the 70kWh battery pack is a good pick but just out of your budget) and the Tata Harrier EV with the 65kWh battery pack.

We have owned a Tata Zest for 10 years and are looking for a family car for 4 adults and 1kid 9year old. Our running for the year is 12k to 13k kms with 60% city and the rest highway for occasional trips. We intend to keep it for 10 years and zeroed in on Seltos, but worried about ethanol blending and pricey petrol. So, for our requirement, we are thinking of moving to EV and are confused whether we should wait for Sierra EV, go with Harrier EV or XEV 9s. Although we aren’t keen on a 7 seater, and 9E seems to be gimmicky. Please help.

•5w

For your usage, we would not switch to an EV purely because of ethanol blending worries. With 12,000 to 13,000 km a year, 60 per cent city use and a 10-year ownership plan, a petrol SUV like the Kia Seltos is still a perfectly practical choice. E20-compliant petrol cars will continue to be supported, and a move to higher ethanol blends like E85 would require dedicated flex fuel engines, so there is no realistic scenario where today’s compliant petrol cars suddenly become unusable.If you genuinely want to move to an EV, then the decision should be based on your usage pattern, charging convenience and ownership comfort, not fuel policy anxiety. Between your options, the Tata Harrier EV looks like the most complete fit today. It gives you the space you need for four adults and a child, feels like a proper family SUV and removes the uncertainty of waiting for an unlaunched product. The Mahindra XEV 9e is also a strong EV, but since you already find it a bit too gimmicky and are not looking for that kind of experience, it does not sound like the natural fit.As for the Tata Sierra EV, we would absolutely suggest waiting if you are not in a rush, because it is expected soon and could land in the sweet spot between the Harrier EV and the smaller EV SUVs in terms of practicality and positioning. The only caveat is that buying an EV without a reliable home charging setup would make far less sense than simply buying the Seltos petrol and moving on.

Sir, how is the rear suspension and ride quality of the Mahindra XEV 9e Pack One and Two? I tested the Pack Three and found the rear seat very boat-like with too much movement both vertically and sideways, which can get nauseating for rear-seat passengers. Is the suspension setup in Pack One and Two any better? Should I instead go for the Harrier EV 75 RWD if I want better ride quality, or should I wait for the Sierra EV? I want an EV bigger than the Nexon, but I do not like the Curvv EV and was thinking of avoiding Mahindra because of the suspension. I tried the Nexon EV and new Punch EV and found their rear suspension much better than the XEV 9e and even the eVitara. Please guide.

What you felt in the Mahindra XEV 9e Pack Three is a fair observation. The XEV 9e does have a softer suspension tune, and for some rear seat passengers, that can translate into a floaty, slightly boat-like vertical movement over undulations, which can feel uncomfortable or even nauseating if you are sensitive to that kind of motion. As far as we know, there is no major suspension hardware difference between Pack One, Two and Three that fundamentally changes this character, so we would not expect the lower variants to feel significantly different in this regard.If rear seat ride quality and body control are a major priority, the Tata Harrier EV is the better option right now. It feels more tied down, composed and generally better controlled from the rear, without that excessive floatiness. If you still want to stay with Mahindra, the XEV 9e actually feels more balanced in this respect and does not have the same exaggerated bouncy character as the XEV 9S.That said, since you are clearly particular about ride quality and already like how Tata’s EVs are tuned, we would absolutely suggest waiting for the Tata Sierra EV as well, especially since its launch is right around the corner. It should sit in that sweet spot above the Nexon EV in size while potentially offering the kind of more settled suspension setup you seem to prefer.
