Which is the best electric car among Tata Nexon EV, MG ZS EV, and Hyundai Kona?

MG ZS EV is better as per my analogy and Hyundai Kona is worst largely because of its looks. Kona is no SUV it is more like a crossover Hatch. Tata Nexon EV sits between them. If you want proper spacious SUV then MG ZS EV is best if you don’t want large space then Nexon EV would be better for you. There’s no denying the fact that, MG ZS EV looks slightly better than Nexon EV.

Which one is better, Tata Nexon petrol or Tata Nexon EV?

Both are good it depends on what you need. The Nexon EV is the cheapest suv in the market with loads of features and power and a good range too. However EVs are impractical if you are planning to take them out for a long drive but if you are looking at city runabouts like going to office then Nexon RV might make sense for you. However for all practical reasons Nexon petrol will be a better buy.
