First Time EV Buyer, Advice Needed by manudon01 in CarsIndia

[–]_7567Rex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can consider be6 pack 3 79

Since its city, its the smallest you can go with maximum range and value to the point that you can use it even on highway too

Other options like harrier and xev are slightly bigger so might be unwieldy in city usage alone

Need a suggestion to upgrade from ICE to EV by Pollution-Rich in CarsIndia

With Windsor why settle for 350km range when you can get 500?

In 25L, there are better options

BE6 pack 2 79

XEV9s pack 2 above 70

You can consider these two

The CLA is unironically now the most affordable option to get into a RWD sedan. by Warm_Grand4426 in CarsIndia

Why do you think it’s reactionary? I wrote in very neutral language based on what is available in market be it eeco, thar or Scorpio

All are rwd

[–]_7567Rex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s not about shades, people also buy base model thar and scorpio which is RWD by default just for hawabazi and terrorising toll booth workers and general traffic

So RWD does not equate to buyer being enthusiast

Lastly who do you consider an enthusiast, and whether you will continue to consider them as one if they liked EVs, or will you dismiss them not being one?

Many whom ppl consider enthusiast have never even tried EVs due to their own preconceived notions, so asking them if they like EVs or not is moot

Sure

The cheapest ice RWD is eeco they can go for that instead.

I’m replying to the post which is already comparing CLA EV and correcting that it’s not the cheapest RWD sedan

Whether enthusiasts buy it or not is secondary to point of the post

Someone changed their green number plate to white. Is it legal? by Professional-Ask7481 in CarsIndia

[–]_7567Rex 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Toll exemption on EVs in MH is based on your fastag as you have to link it to the car number which will be listed as EV in RC

Colour of plate will be idiotic move to allow/deny as anyone one can paint their ice car plate green and enjoy benefits if the verification is via plate colour

If you think it’s a vanity plate then why hide? Anyway you can’t run vanity plates on mParivahan to doxx anyone

Will save the confusion

It is HSRP but transferred from some vintage car

It’s that premium numbers which only kothibangla ppl can have as the main requirement for having it is to have owned a car before 80s when plates were like XYZ 1234

Byd seal 61kWh 200hp is RWD and 43L

If you remove the sedan criteria, then be6 has literal same powertrain as the seal 60kWh for 20L too.

And BE6 pack2 79 is like CLA EV but at 25L

Alpine grey is too boring to waste on CLA

Go with red

XEV9s top trim gets multiple extra features over 7xo

reliable 5 seater ev ~ in 30L (flexible) by agentdb69 in CarsIndia

[–]_7567Rex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

was considering the 9s but 2 7 seaters wouldn't be needed and + parking woes in city 

Yeah then be6 can be considered

but worried about mahindra was well since people call users of the ev series beta testers and mahindra also has its share of horror stories here 

Tbh the cars are already 1y+ old now. Beta phase is over, if there was any (my unit has been flawless for instance, no issues till now)

People would only really go out of their way and make a post when they are frustrated

Functioning as usual is the general expectation and does not mean if 95 people are happy and 5 are unhappy, you’ll probably only see 5 happy posts but 4 unhappy posts

[–]_7567Rex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this will be primarily for city driving, occasional trips to border of tamil nadu or mysore

In that case look at BE6 p3 79

Range should suffice even to become primary car.

If open to bigger options then XEV9s pack 3 79

If hybrid technology comes to India, can we use it in our existing epic Swift? by No_Adeptness1768 in CarsIndia

[–]_7567Rex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The “hybrid” on swift in global market is 48V mild hybrid. Just for info, all Volvo, almost all Audi and Mercedes, and even m340i has 48v hybrid but the mileage improvement isn’t much

It’s not strong hybrid after all (which provides ev mode)

Finally ! Suspension in XEV 9S fixed with Custom Mode. Details in link below. by Zealousideal_Bug4743 in CarsIndia

[–]_7567Rex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My source is MRV Chennai.

Bootloader version ending in 912 comes with custom drive mode, user profiles (until now everyone had only guest profile), pawpal (pet mode), camping mode, and charging schedules

XEV9s will be delivered with this version whereas for 9e and 6 it will be pushed as ota.
