Hi, looking for a car with a daily run of 50-60km. I have shortlisted the Windsor Pro/Windsor and the VinFast VF6. I need to know their real-world range, and the car should be future-proof for the next 10 years.
If you have the budget for it, opt for the MG Windsor Pro for its larger battery and its 377 km real-world range. Also, its bright seat upholstery looks more upmarket, and it also gets ADAS.
The VF6's interiors feel even more premium, performance is stronger, and it is a nicer car to drive. Space, however, won't be as generous, and even though we haven't tested it yet, despite having a larger battery, it weighs a lot more. Hence, efficiency isn't likely to be too different from the Windsor Pro.
In summary, if you are usually self-driven, opt for the VinFast VF6. Otherwise, for mixed usage or if you travel regularly with family, then the Windsor Pro is the better, more spacious option.

Hello, I currently drive a VW Virtus GT and absolutely love it. Lately my office commute has changed, and I now have to travel about 50 km a day in Hyderabad traffic, so my fuel bills are increasing. I want to know if switching to an EV is suitable and advisable, as I’m worried about EV after-sales maturity in India and charging infrastructure on highways (like queues at charging stations). Please advise if switching to an EV is a good idea, and if so, which model within the same budget would give me a similar feel to the Virtus.
If your commute is no more than 50km a day, then yes, an EV could be a good solution for you. It will certainly bring down your running costs compared to a petrol car. After-sales service is not an issue; in fact, EVs require far less maintenance and upkeep than ICE cars. It's mostly consumables - like brake pads - that get changed with subsequent services.
However, what takes a hit is resale value, which for an EV is nowhere as strong as for an ICE car. As for charging infrastructure, it's always advised to have a charger installed at home or at work (or both) to reduce reliance on the public charging network. As it is still developing, and in some regions it is unreliable.
In and around a big city like Hyderabad, however, you shouldn't have too much of a problem. You should, however, plot at least 2-3 charging options on any highway journey you make, as functionality and queues are potential hurdles.
As for which EV to buy, none will give you quite the same thrill as a Volkswagen Virtus GT, especially in the same budget. But you can try out the Mahindra BE6 or the Vinfast VF6, both of which are fast and fun to drive, with a solid build.

Want to buy a 5-seater car between 25-30 lakh. My daily driving is around 40 km. My priorities are having a fun-to-drive and comfortable car. I am open to electric options as well.
If you are considering an electric car, the VinFast VF7 stands out as an excellent choice. In its higher variants, which fall within your budget, it gets a dual motor setup producing around 350 hp and can do 0 to 100 kph in just over 6 seconds.
At this price point, you will not find a quicker accelerating five seater. More importantly, it is not just fast in a straight line. The ride is comfortable, the cabin is spacious, and it feels well-suited for daily driving as well as longer journeys.
Other EVs you could also look at include the Mahindra BE 6 and the Tata Harrier EV AWD, both of which have strong performance and a fun-to-drive nature. But the VinFast remains the quickest and most exciting option on pure performance.
If you prefer an internal combustion engine, the Mahindra XUV 7XO turbo petrol automatic is a very good option. The petrol engine is powerful, smooth and refined, and with the recent facelift, Mahindra has improved the suspension setup as well. As a result, it now offers a more comfortable ride without losing its engaging driving character, making it a good balance between fun and comfort for daily use.

I am planning to buy a new car, and I require that it should be automatic, have ADAS Level 2 features, and have a good safety rating. My budget is ₹20 lakh. My monthly usage is around 750 km within the city and 600 km on highways. I am interested in electric cars, but the real-world range should be above 250 kilometres.
Within your budget, and given your requirements, you should consider the VinFast VF6. It is perhaps the best VFM electric car on the market today, with even the top-spec Wind Infinity version coming in at around Rs 20 lakh, on road. Its large 59.6kWh battery has an NEDC range rating of 480km, which should easily translate to more than 300km in real-world usage. Plus, it is powerful, with 204hp on tap, and has a comfortable ride and solid feel.
Moreover, this VinFast car is loaded with features, including ADAS with Level 2 autonomous driving, which is difficult to get in an electric car at your budget otherwise. And finally, the Vinfast VF6 has scored 5 stars in Bharat NCAP crash test ratings.

Asked by: Kamleshon Feb 2, 2026
My running is approximately 5,000 km per year, entirely within the city. Should I go for an EV or an automatic petrol car in the ₹20-25 lakh price range? I am considering an EV mainly for tax savings (40% tax deduction), but I am unsure whether petrol would be better. Please guide me on what makes more sense financially, as well as from a maintenance perspective.
Since your annual usage is so low, and all within the city, an electric car makes a lot of sense, both from the point of view of tax savings and due to much lower running costs. However, our advice is not to rely on the public charging network alone, and instead ensure you have a charger installed at your home or place of work, if not both. If you do have to make an occasional outstation trip, plan carefully and pick a route with multiple public chargers along the way, topping up in small amounts as you go.
As for which car you should choose, there are plenty of options. If you want the best all-rounder with maximum efficiency, get the Hyundai Creta Electric. If you require more space, the Kia Carens Clavis EV is a great option. If you want ultimate value for money, try the Vinfast VF7. And if you want a dramatic and exciting EV with some compromises to practicality, check out the Mahindra BE 6.

My daily running is 60km (50% highway and 50% city). I am confused between buying a Hyundai Creta diesel or an EV. My budget is ₹20 to 22 lakh. Please suggest.
The Hyundai Creta diesel is a strong option for your needs. The 1.5 litre engine is refined, offers a good balance of performance and fuel efficiency, and suits highway heavy usage well. The Creta is also spacious and comfortable for long drives.
Within your budget, you could also consider the Maruti Suzuki Victoris Hybrid. It will be significantly more fuel efficient than the Hyundai car and is a very cost-efficient choice for your running. The only downside is the smaller boot, as the battery pack eats into luggage space.
An EV is another sensible and cost-effective option, especially if you have home charging. In your budget, you can look at the Vinfast VF6 or the Tata Nexon EV.

Hi team. What are your opinions on the VF7? There are hardly any media opinions on the car. The package is quite lucrative, but why is no one talking about it? The car undercuts both Tata and Mahindra and is plenty powerful with good styling. How does it stack up against the XEV 9e and the Tata Harrier EV? I value range, reliability, and looks.
Autocar India has driven the VF7, first in Vietnam and very recently in India as well. VinFast VF7 is indeed powerful; we drove the AWD variant and were pleasantly surprised by how quick it was. Looks are subjective, but we think if you compare it with the Mahindra XEV 9e, it's not as eye-catching and from some angles, it looks more like a hatchback than an SUV.
Interiors look premium overall; there are no physical buttons except for gear selectors, and everything is controlled by the screen. While this approach isn’t new, the screen has noticeable lag.
As for reliability, there’s no historical data to fall back on yet, and the bigger concern at the moment is the lack of a service and dealer network. If reliability is a priority, we would recommend going with the Mahindra XEV 9S or even XEV 9e, which offers a better value proposition.

I would like to purchase a new car, and I am 65 years old. I previously owned an XUV700 AX7L petrol. I am looking for a car with good suspension and a well-appointed interior. I’m also open to considering an EV. My budget is around Rs 30 lakh, and my yearly running is about 6,000 km.
In your price range, the XUV700 remains one of the best options. However, if you want something new, consider the Toyota Innova Hycross Hybrid VX — it offers a spacious and premium cabin, excellent ride comfort, and outstanding fuel efficiency.
On the EV front, the Mahindra XEV 9e Pack Two (79kWh) is a great option, while the recently launched VinFast VF7 Sky Infinity AWD is also worth considering for its strong value proposition.
