The Tigor EV is offered across three trims across a price range of Rs. 10.55 Lakhs to Rs. 10.86 Lakhs

Tigor is not feature-loaded as the others on this list and reason perhaps are quite clear – the pricing. It still gets a decent 8 speaker music system, a five-inch touchscreen, turn by turn navigation, and rear parking assist. On the safety front, it gets ABS with EBD, cornering stability controls, and better impact-absorbing body structure.

It gets a boot space of 255L, which is the smallest on this list.

Tata Tigor EV

The cheapest in this list, Tata's compact sedan's electric sibling does not look quite different from its petrol and diesel sibling. It definitely will not sell in numbers and it seems Tata had a fixed set of buyers in mind who will probably buy this car.

Tata Nexon EV

Being the flag bearer of TATA 2.0, this sub-4m contact SUV can be credited with Tata's strong redemption into the Indian market, with a design that is appealing and unorthodox, this Tata has managed to sell in good numbers, which pushed Tata to launch its electric sibling, the Nexon EV

It means that the Nexon EV retains all the goodness with a beefed-up exterior (elements like large air-dam with tri-arrow signatures and blue chrome highlights on the bumper being the highlights) that looks even sportier. It is the first electronic vehicle to feature Ziptron EV Technology. Also being the first home-grown fully electric SUV, Tata deserves a big round of applause for its efforts.

The Electric SUV in India is an absolute tech feast, it is loaded up to the top with a number of interesting features, and with Hyundai's claim of a range of 452 km, it surely created a lot of waves in the market during its launch.

It looks a class apart, and for sure would not go unnoticed with absolutely modern design elements.  With DRLs placed in the position of headlights and headlights placed below, the front grabs attention. Design elements like plastic cladding and skid plates at the rear do add to the SUV's feel.

Needless to say, being a Hyundai, it packs all bells and whistles, with high tech features like an electric sunroof, power-adjustable front heated and ventilated seats, and wireless charging for phone.

It is for everyone to see that the limited reserve is the secondary concern, and the hit that the environment has been taking still remains the primary one.

Thus, electric cars pretty much are the best fuel alternative available as of today, and though electric vehicles market in India is still in its growing stage, things have improved rapidly in the past couple of years with manufacturers putting in a lot of effort and resources exploring electricity as the sustainable fuel alternative.

Thus, we will be listing the top 4 electric cars on sale in India-

MG ZS EV

MG ZS EV

The second offering from the British Automaker in India is based on the popular MG ZS, the company sells it in abroad. On the styling front, car carries on Hector's legacy with traditional MG elements like signature MG fascia being used. Other notable design elements include windmill inspired alloys, silver roof rails and large tail lights at the back, all adding to appeal of the car.

Interiors are as well laid out and as comfortable as the Hector and being an MG, though it offers a lot in terms of features and utilities, emphasis on safety features like six airbags, ABS, EBD, hill hold and hill descend controls, makes it stand-out, NCAP Crash test rating of perfect five stars justifies the same.

Other features like a panoramic sunroof, updated infotainment system and air quality index are also included.

Tata Nexon EV

Being the flag bearer of TATA 2.0, this sub-4m contact SUV can be credited with Tata's strong redemption into the Indian market, with a design that is appealing and unorthodox, this Tata has managed to sell in good numbers, which pushed Tata to launch its electric sibling, the Nexon EV

It means that the Nexon EV retains all the goodness with a beefed-up exterior (elements like large air-dam with tri-arrow signatures and blue chrome highlights on the bumper being the highlights) that looks even sportier. It is the first electronic vehicle to feature Ziptron EV Technology. Also being the first home-grown fully electric SUV, Tata deserves a big round of applause for its efforts.

With utility features like Rain sensing wipers, multi-drive modes cooled glove box and rear AC vents, it also has a rich feature list, of course not as comprehensive as the previous two cars, but still respectable considering it comes cheaper at a price much cheaper than the Nexon EV.

It also offers practicality with a number of cubby spaces around the cabin and a spacious 350L boot space.

Tata Tigor EV

The cheapest in this list, Tata's compact sedan's electric sibling does not look quite different from its petrol and diesel sibling. It definitely will not sell in numbers and it seems Tata had a fixed set of buyers in mind who will probably buy this car.

Tigor is not feature-loaded as the others on this list and reason perhaps are quite clear – the pricing. It still gets a decent 8 speaker music system, a five-inch touchscreen, turn by turn navigation, and rear parking assist. On the safety front, it gets ABS with EBD, cornering stability controls, and better impact-absorbing body structure.

It gets a boot space of 255L, which is the smallest on this list.
