I’m in search of an SUV for about Rs 50 lakh to switch my Audi Q5. The Tiguan suits the finances, however all critiques inform me that the journey is simply too stiff for our roads. The Tucson petrol is simply entrance wheel drive (solely the diesel has AWD), and I don’t fancy a FWD SUV! The Innova is simply too large for me, whereas the Camry – at almost Rs 55 lakh (on-road) – appears overpriced.

The phase that I’m taking a look at appears to have disappeared – no Honda Accord, no CRV. The Audi Q3 and A4 are small, and the A6, Q5 take me again to the Rs 60 lakh vary, which I’m making an attempt to keep away from. What is my most suitable choice for about Rs 50 lakh out there?

If you may handle to put in a house charger connection, it’s an impressive selection and higher than those you’ve shortlisted. Being an EV, your highway tax can also be low or zero. So, on the highway, it received’t be far more than Rs 52 lakh-54 lakh.
