The Sierra EV is more affordable than the Mahindra BE 6 at both entry-level and top-spec variants.
When the fully loaded variants are considered, the Tata EV is more affordable by a whopping Rs 2.5 lakh.
Neither of the two Indian EVs are available with the Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) option, which could have enabled a relatively lower price range.

CarDekho Says…

The Tata Sierra EV is promising a complete package, thanks to its stylish design, a loaded set of premium features, and multiple powertrain choices, including an AWD option. Even its claimed range figures are some of the highest numbers in the EV space in India, thereby ensuring owners don’t have any anxiety.

On the other hand, the Mahindra BE 6 is for those who want their EV to stand out from the crowd, while offering uncompromised performance and a tech-laden cabin experience. It also has the highest claimed range figure here with the larger battery pack-equipped powertrain that is likely to draw more buyers to its side.

Other Cars To Consider

If the Sierra EV and BE 6 are on your shortlist, here are some other electric SUVs that deserve a closer look:

Hyundai Creta Electric: Offers a familiar SUV package with a plethora of features and Hyundai’s reliability.
Maruti e Vitara: Maruti’s first-ever EV offers a high claimed range, along with an extensive set of features and a well-covered safety package.
Tata Harrier EV: Offering similar battery pack options and range figures, the upgrade to the Harrier EV can bring you a larger cabin, few new features and a more powerful QWD setup as well.
Tata Curvv EV: Offers unique coupe-SUV styling and is a lot more affordable than the Sierra EV. It also gets a feature-loaded cabin, massive boot and a long range powertrain.
VinFast VF7: Stands out with its clean and modern styling, impressive fit and finish, and offers a choice of two electric powertrain options.
VinFast VF6: The smaller brother of the VF7 offers the premium cabin experience but in a smaller footprint and a smaller price tag in comparison to the VF7.
Toyota Urban Cruiser Ebella: Brings sharp styling, a premium cabin, a smooth driving experience, and a feature-loaded package.
MG ZS EV: Offers a premium cabin, a well-equipped feature list, and enough range to comfortably handle everyday driving.
