If you’re looking to purchase a long-range electric vehicle to reduce your running cost while enjoying the weather changes every few hundred kilometers, you’ve landed at the right place. Our list of the top 7 long-range electric cars under Rs. 30 lakhs includes something for everyone.

Whether you’re looking for a family-mover with additional seating space or a spacious five-seater with an enormous boot space, this list offers plenty of options. However, what’s common among them is a real-world range of around 400 kilometers.

1. Mahindra BE 6

  • Mahindra BE 6 Pack One 59 kWh: Rs. 18.90 lakhs (ex-showroom)
  • Mahindra BE 6 Pack Two 79 kWh: Rs. 23 lakhs (ex-showroom, speculated)

Those who prioritize range should definitely consider the Mahindra BE 6 (and there are several reasons to do so). First and foremost, the vehicle offers a massive 79 kWh battery pack that promises a range of up to 682 kilometers. This is the highest claimed range for an electric vehicle under Rs. 30 lakhs (to our knowledge).  

Realistically speaking, the vehicle should offer around 500 to 530 kilometers of all-electric range (on a single charge), which is excellent for long-distance commuters. The car also supports up to 175 kW DC fast charging, which should recharge the battery from 20 to 80% in about 20 minutes.

The company is also offering a lifetime warranty on the 79 kWh Pack Three variant, and we expect it to be available on the 79 kWh Pack Two variant as well. Some notable features of the vehicle include a unique and sporty design, a tech-loaded cabin with an aircraft-inspired drive selector and drive controls, a new two-spoke steering wheel with an illuminated BE logo, and a panoramic sunroof.

2. Mahindra XEV 9e

  • Mahindra XEV 9e Pack One 59 kWh: Rs. 21.90 lakhs (ex-showroom)
  • Mahindra XEV 9e Pack Two 79 kWh: Rs. 25 – 26 lakhs (ex-showroom, speculated)

If you’re looking for a bigger, more spacious, yet equally good commuter for long distances, the Mahindra has another car in store for you: the XEV 9e. While the car’s base model comes with a 59 kWh battery pack, the top model (Pack Three) features a 79 kWh battery pack that offers up to 656 kilometers of cruising range. Fortunately, the second-top model (Pack Two) should also feature the same battery pack.

In the real world, with all the traffic jams, constant braking, and quick overtakes (that require hard acceleration), the electric SUV should offer around 500 kilometers of range on a single charge. Like the Mahindra BE 6, the XEV 9e also supports 175 kW fast charging, wherein the battery can be charged from 20 to 80% in about 20 minutes.

Further, buyers can also charge the vehicle via an 11 kW home charger, which would take around eight hours to restore maximum range. Mahindra also offers a lifetime battery warranty for the first-registered owner of the XEV 9e. Check out more details about the vehicle in the article linked below.

Besides added space, the XEV 9e offers a high ground clearance, an enormous boot space of 663 liters, a 150-liter frunk, an illuminated two-spoke steering wheel, an advanced infotainment system that runs on the company’s Adrenox software, and multiple 12.3-inch screens (for the instrument cluster and infotainment system).

3. Tata Curvv EV

  • Tata Curvv EV Creative (45 kWh): Rs. 17.49 lakh
  • Curvv EV Accomplished (55 kWh): Rs. 19.25 lakh

The next entrant on the list is the newly-launched Tata Curvv EV. Although it isn’t as sporty and aggressive as the Mahindra BE 6, the Curvv EV offers a unique coupe-SUV design that resembles those of the more expensive vehicles. We’ve seen the car on Indian roads, and let us tell you that it easily stands out among a pack of 10 to 20 cars.

What gives an edge to the Tata Curvv EV over the others is the presence of the long-range battery pack on the third model from the base. We’re talking about the Accomplished (55 kWh) variant, with a certified range of 585 kilometers. Tata also advertises the vehicle’s real-world range, which is around 400 to 425 kilometers on a single charge.

Regarding charging time, Tata claims that the vehicle supports 70 kW DC chargers (up to 80% in 40 minutes). Further, the Curvv EV also supports vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-load (V2L) charging models. Check out more details about the vehicle in the article linked below.

Key features of the Tata Curvv EV include a dual-tone color theme for the interiors, a 12.3-inch floating infotainment screen, a touch-based cluster control system, additional controls on the center console (including the drive selector, a gear lever, and a wireless charger), and a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster.

  • BYD eMAX 7 Superior Six-Seater (71.8 kWh): Rs. 29.30 lakhs (ex-showroom)

The BYD eMax 7 is the first six-seater electric MPV in our list of top 7 Long-Range Electric Cars To Purchase In India (2025) Under Rs. 30 Lakhs. With its 71.8 kWh battery pack, the Superior Six-Seater offers a claimed-range of up to 530 kilometers.

The real-world range of the vehicle, depending on one’s driving style and conditions, should be between 400 and 450 kilometers. BYD eMAX 7 Superior Six-Seater supports 80 kW DC charging, restoring the vehicle’s range to 80% in 37 minutes, as well as 115 kW DC charging, which should do the job even faster.

Those who want a seven-seater electric vehicle can consider the top-tier Superior (seven-seater) variant, but it will cost them Rs. 29.90 lakhs (ex-showroom price), implying that the on-road price will be even higher. To learn more about the vehicle, go through our launch story below.

Some notable features of the vehicle include a 12.8-inch rotating touchscreen infotainment screen, a five-inch instrument cluster, six airbags, an ESC, TPMS, a 360-degree camera, Level 2 ADAS features like adaptive cruise control, emergency braking, ventilated front seats, and panoramic glass roof.

While the on-road price of the BYD Atto 3 Premium (60.48 kWh) variant goes slightly above Rs. 30 lakhs, it is worth considering, especially for those who want a feature-loaded and spacious electric five-seater SUV.

The mid-specced Premium variant packs a 60.48 kWh battery pack, which BYD Attoo 3 up to 521 kilometers of range between charges. In the real world, the vehicle should offer around 400 kilometers of cruising range.

Regarding charging speed, the vehicle supports up to 80 kW DC charging, which charges up the battery in around 50 minutes. At home, the car can be charged overnight (up to 10 hours) with the slower AC charger.

Key features of the vehicle include a 12.8-inch rotating touchscreen infotainment system, a digital instrument cluster, a panoramic sunroof, ADAS features like lane departure warning, blind spot detection, emergency braking, 360-degree cameras, and Blade battery technology.

Most recently, the Korean automaker Hyundai revealed the electric avatar of its most popular product in the subcontinent: the Creta SUV. Featuring a 51.4 kWh better pack on the Smart (O) variant, the Creta Electric claims to last 473 kilometers between charges. However, the real-world range of the vehicle is around 400 kilometers (depending on the driving pattern and conditions).

Using a DC charger, the battery charges from 10 to 80% in 58 minutes. On the other hand, an 11 kW AC home charger can replenish the battery from 10 to 100% in around four hours.

Key features of the Creta Electric include unlocking via digital key, a new three-spoke steering wheel, a circular driving mode selector on the center console, and a stick selector below the indicator shaft. The vehicle also offers ADAS features along with a large panoramic sunroof.
