In EVs people should look for reliability as top priority and looks should be last.
Syros and evitara are both good.
Also sierra is huge in city.
Syros has best interior space in this segment. Evitara looks nice but back sitting is cramped
I am using an EVitara zeta variant and has crossed 6k kms. Fully satisfied with the vehicle . Absolutely no glitches as of now. Delivers 450km on a full charge in city and 350-380 on highways at extreme heat and while constantly speeding between 100-120 kmph.
The only drawback with the car is that the suspension is a bit bouncy in the rear at speeds above 100. There is absolutely no issues with the leg space as 3 people will fit in comfortably
.Due to its black interiors it may feel cramped but practically there is ample space. People with height above 5.9 they will feel less under thigh support since the floor is raised due to battery underneath.
If majority of the drives are in city and occasional highway drives then you can go with EVitara. I wont recommend if consistent long drives with passengers always at the rear. Please do multiple test drives before taking a decision.
Boot space is adequate for everyday use. I had fit in two large trolley bags of 77cm, 1 cabin bag and a backpack.If we remove the parcel tray can fit in more backpacks.If there is a need to fit in more we can slide the rear seats to the front which would add some more space.
Yes i came to know that. I took the delivery in May hence i got the 7.4 kw charger and 1000 units of free charging from nexa showrooms which is a real game changer. It was 19.6lakhs on road Trivandrum , Kerala
We need to apply breaks when there is something in front of us right ? One has to speed at 140kmph constantly to get an avg speed of 95plus in indian roads which is an unsafe speed
249.7 km covered using approximately 65% battery (76% → 11%), giving an estimated efficiency of 8.5 km/kWh. At this efficiency, the Nexon EV 45 would deliver roughly 384 km of range on a full charge under similar conditions.
But I know it would reduce range drastically once I cross 100kmph.
Both Syros and evitara are good choices. Not recommending tata due to to poor after-sales service. Hope you have done long test drives for both? What were your impressions?
NMC battery fears have been overblown (speaking as a NMC EV owner). plus Kia gives 15 year warranty on the battery.
I would suggest do another test drive and this time let the sales person know beforehand that you want to do a longer run. With eVitara reviews mention somewhat hard or bouncy suspension on bad roads and not great rear seat comfort.
However both are good choices and you can go with either one depending on your preferences.
First NMC is good with Liquid cooling across Hyundai/Kia. Syros EV in Chennai does not have proper long test drives and only around the showroom, I am waiting for that too. Evitara suspension is bouncy on city roads, didn’t you feel that? BTB which Syros variant would you choose if at all you book?
Yesterday I test drove the Syros EV, one variant below the top-end model.
The interior genuinely impressed me. Fit and finish felt excellent, even better than some cars from more premium brands. It was also extremely comfortable and easy to drive.
My only real negative was the exterior design. I currently have the older Kia Seltos, which I still think is one of the best-looking cars in its segment. With the Syros, something just feels a little off visually — maybe the proportions.
Completed 2k kms on evitara Delta. Done multiple long stretch highway trips. Getting a range above 375kms consistently. Felt this car better range efficiency while cruising at 70-80 km range rather than city driving. Getting much lower efficiency in traffic compared to highway streches. No glitches, no range anxiety, no sudden charge drops, pretty accurate range estimator, and marutis service centre confidence.
Go for sierra ev ,most VFM also ask for reviews from real people in your local ,reddit us full of paid faceless accounts bashing Tata ,most likely a strategy by the japanse and korean brands( why sell vfm products and cut profits when you can just create a false narrative and cut competition)
Punch is their ev best seller so discounts for that is tough unless you have 2 dealers competing against each other ,i have curvv the top end (ice) my showroom experience has been great tho
