Hello Autocar Team, my father is looking for a second vehicle. He currently drives a Safari Storme VX, which has covered close to 5 lakh km on the odometer and is still running well. He frequently visits paddy fields and drives on muddy roads. Since it is a diesel vehicle and considering upcoming regulations, the RC will not be renewed after four years. Along with the Safari, we are now looking for a capable electric vehicle that can handle off-road conditions and long highway drives. We have a good charging infrastructure at home. Please suggest the best-suited car.

    The Tata Harrier EV is the closest you will get to your Safari with an electric vehicle. It will give you the same solid feel as the Safari you currently have, and beyond that, it makes for a good highway car with its stable high-speed manners, decent range and good ride and handling.
    The Harrier EV’s trump for customers like your father is its all-wheel-drive system, which allows him to tackle muddy tracks and fields with ease. The Harrier EV’s ground clearance is nowhere near as good as the original Safari’s, but it's good enough for light off-roading. In view of this, we feel the Harrier EV will be the right car for your dad.
