Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Kia Carens Clavis EV
- Refined and smooth driving experience - better than ICE.
- Spacious and practical cabin with space for adults in all three rows.
- Low running cost of just Rs 1.5/km when charged at home.
- Feature-rich and family-focused cabin: Ventilated seats, panoramic sunroof, AC vents in all three rows and adequate storage spaces
Mahindra XEV 9e
- Two battery pack options with an estimated real-world range of 400-500km and 175kW DC fast charging compatibility feels reassuring on long road trips
- The strong safety suite includes well-calibrated L2 ADAS. Works well in Indian conditions and very useful in low visibility situations
- Performance: Smooth for regular usage and punchy on highways
- Feature-rich: Triple 12.3-inch displays, 16-speaker Harman/Kardon audio, auto park, and powered and ventilated front seats

Kia Carens Clavis EV
- Limited long-distance usability with a 360km real-world range.
- More expensive as compared to the petrol and diesel variants.
- No crash test rating for the EV.
Mahindra XEV 9e
- Rear seat experience could be better: Sloping roofline limits headroom and under thigh support feels less for tall people
