I currently drive a Jeep Compass Diesel 4x2 and want to change my vehicle within a budget of Rs. 25-30 lakh. My annual running is around 10,000 km, with most of my driving being in the city and 4-5 highway trips a year. Please suggest whether I should go for an EV, petrol or diesel. I have shortlisted the following models: Mahindra XUV 7XO, Mahindra XEV 9e, Toyota Innova Hycross, and Kia Seltos Or is there any other option I should consider? Please suggest.

Assuming that you can arrange for home charging, given that you've shortlisted the Mahindra XEV 9E, it is the one to go for. It packs in strong performance, this Mahindra car is comfortable, and despite its size, it is surprisingly easy to drive. With home charging, your running costs will be very low. And finally, with a real-world range of 450-500km, as well as its ultra fast charging capability, the XEV 9E is a good choice for those occasional highway drives too.If you're keen on getting a petrol-automatic, the Mahindra XUV 7XO and Kia Seltos are options you must certainly consider.
