I own a tata tiago ev LR version, done 7000kms in 5 months, i drive in hilly mountainous roads only, the regen is Fantastic in the tiago , you hardly need the brake . I get from 220-250 kms on a full charge without AC. The suspension too is very good on the tiago which makes the ride comfortable. Love the car so far.
Just one complain, Tata service needs to get better
Update÷ have done 11, 000 kms with no problem, so far.
yes tata service centres are not good
Tata Tiago has Home fast charging, electric auto folding mirrors, cooled glove box, leatherette seats, more powerful motor with 75ps, Liquid cooled battery and motor pack, more motor warranty of 8yr/ 1. 60lakh)than ec3 (5yr/1lakh), Auto headlamps, rain sensing wipers, rear wiper washer with demister, projector head lamps, push button start, Fatc, smart watch connectivity, 4 levels of regenerative braking, IP 67 rated battery and motor, auto battery cutoff on impact/ accident, impact sensing auto door unlock, speed dependent volume, adjustable head rests, electric tailgate release and many more. Does ec3 have these features 😁?
Tiago EV also has cruise control, auto climate control, reverse camera with dynamic guides, very informative display and above all it has 4/5 star NCAP rating.
Tata Tiago is the best
I own a Mg comet and use it in Bengaluru which is considered the most congested city. The interiors are super premium and the space for 4 person is absolutely comfortable. The range for me as I have driven around 5500 kms comes to an avg between 220 to 235 without AC. I even did a one day trip with it covering 200 kms and it worked wonders.
As charging stations are on the rise, this can be a little wonder!!
I test drove the Tiago but it was no way near to the experience of Mg comet but only with the advantage of Fast charging!!
Dont tell 4 person space is comfortable.... How they squeeze in inside
No need to squeeze All the 4 of them 2 at the back and 2 in front were absolutely comfortable.
yep with no luggage @@eeshwarschannel2061
What about the safety rating? Storage space?
Driving without ac means a hell for me i definitely need ac when in car and tiago is the practical and best car made for the masses
If the Citroën were ₹1L less expensive, it would have been so much more competitive in the EV market.
Un drôle de produit!
Citroen is bigger than Nexon (or similar sized), having the same range as Nexon, Same battery size and is cheaper than Nexon by almost 3 lakhs. Overdrive is helping Tata by comparing a B Segment car against an A Segment car. This can be considered as a paid review...!
@@hiran2016 It seems that nowadays it becomes harder to perceive objectivity.
It's really a very simple decision to pick Tiago among these 3...
Just now I have watched this ,, very informative, I have learned a scooty with a bigger language capacity called MG comet. For extra 2 wheel and better language capacity you need to pay around Rs 5 to 6 laks extra.
MG does not drive around the corner like what a conventional car does. Sharp bumps over 50 are quite bad. For a more expensive option than Tiago ev which drives and handles much better, you need to be a complete form over function kind of person to go for one (after having tested all options). Having driven all of these cars, I personally went for a 15000 km driven used Nexon ev Zx+ which costed me 11.15 lacs. I have long been a part of a ev enthusiast group with a fair share of secondarily experiences.
TIAGO BAAP HEI SABKA ❤❤❤
If you are looking for a city commuter - Comet EV is the best option. Its only rarely you will drive with 4 people with luggage in the city. I would jut keep the back seats folded to get more boot space (That's what I to do with my Reva). I drive 50 % of the time alone, about 40 % of the time 2 people. The question to answer is - Is the compact-ness important for you?. If you want only 1 car - Tiago EV seems like a good option. If you have 2 cars - Comet is a great 2nd car, and you don't need a scooter for quick errands. I am looking to upgrade my Reva to a Comet - size matters!
The spacious and comfortable interior of the Comet EV enhances the overall driving experience.
Took delivery of MG Comet Gamer edition yesterday ❤
😢
Moi moi 😂😂
Tiago ev ❤️
Comet does have isofix mounts in the rear seat and most cars with airbags in front cannot accommodate a child car seat.
Comet is definitely the most impractical scooter on four wheels! Respect your money for long term gains? It is the Tiago!
I am a Tata fan. I own Nexon EV first generation. She is like my girl friend
Let me be the first to say Its nice to see Sohini doing a comparo on this channel, a breath of fresh air, sorry Rohith, Tuhin :P
Coming back to the cars, I think Citroen cuts a few too many corners with the c3/eC3. Something as basic as powered mirrors should have been provided. I was surprised when you said Tiago seats offer better comfort. The C3 looks so much more comfortable in pics/videos (one more reason to check it in person)
Tiago does comes across as a better option. I wonder how Tata is going to price the Punch EV, if the price it much higher than eC3, it could give the Citroen some respite. Hope eC3 comes in a fully loaded avatar once the Punch EV is launched.
And finally the Comet, I really think Micro cars are a solution for congested cities, but I would rather buy a electric quadracycle. One, it will be cheaper. Two, it will offer enough pep for city. Much smaller footprint with enough space for two, Ac charging (again similar) and neither should be used on highway anyways. Regardless of how much tech you put into it, I speak for myself, I would rather buy the Tiago or even the eC3 for a little extra money.
6:53 "Just as much space", not unless you can keep the rear occupants in the cupholders. Oh wait.. they are not large enough. Jokes aside, I think it highlights a single or couple occupancy use case of the car (which is the usual case in cities)
8:32 Now we know what Rohit does at traffic light stops 😂
Haha thank you 🙌🏻
but it was cringe😂😂😂
With a responsive engine and well-tuned dynamics, the MG Comet delivers an energetic driving experience that's both engaging and enjoyable on various road conditions.
Tiago only
Citroen is good but 15laks on road for a features less car is overpriced.
13L bro. I got one including insurance and a few accessories for 13L. If you dont want accessories, it can go down below that too provided you chose your own insurance. I thought it is better value over other 2 cars. I have done 12,500Km. I am overall satisfied except a little slower fast charging speeds under hot weather. Yes, features are lacking but the basic ones like electric orvm will be available as an add on in the future. Infotainment is very good and the ride,suspension, range and overall spaciousness is best in segment.
@@kiranreddy7864 i drove now 15,000 km in 5 months Citroen EC3 top end 13L .. good millage
Citroen ncap ratings are bad
Punch ev
Also Chinese
Please compare among equals. Citroen ec3 Vs Nexon. Tiago Ev Vs MG Comet ev.
This reviewers have no idea about EV's. You can only review about accessories and other junk things...Citroen is bigger than Nexon (or similar sized), having the same range as Nexon, Same battery size and is cheaper than Nexon by almost 3 lakhs. Overdrive is helping Tata by comparing a B Segment car against an A Segment car. This can be considered as a paid review...!
I am a Citroen E C3 owner
First of all can't compare with small sized Tiago EV...the 1 lakh difference between both is that Citroen can be compared with upcoming Punch EV which is around same price...this is the real advantage of Citroen
Secondly...as this is an outside car, it is designed in international standards so it has different kind of safety features...like it will show error until driver & co driver has put seatbelt, it will show error if the AC is on at vehicle idle position for more than 10mins, it will show error if you apply drive mode on non moving traffic, it will show error if theres high voltage at DC...in all these cases the error will get automatically reset within seconds while Tiago/Nexon needs laptop to be brought from their service centre
It has 250kms range on AC mode & 290kms range without AC
Finally when you get inside the car, you will feel as if you are equal to a Scorpio or Seltos in a big vehicle
As a Citroen E C3 owner, what do you think is a good resale price for a car that is 10 months old.
A friend is upgrading for a 7-seater, so I am considering this
@@AdithyaShreshti I don't know
Citroen fits to my needs, im ok with less features.
Add 3 lakhs extra and get better looking and practical nexon. Which has been on Indian road for a while
its undoubtedly the Tiago EV which is the best of 3.
MG Comet EV just looks amazing! Compact vehicles aise ho to traffic me easily gaadi nikal jayegi. Also, it’s an EV, so mujhe to sahi lagi.
When you take Citroen in water logged area...the battery becomes liquid cooled.😅
😂😅
In MG comet quality materials and attention to detail contribute to a premium interior feel.
One accident and all those feature goes for a toss. As there has been no safety rating for this car yet
I daily drive the Tiago with one pedal driving even on level 2 regen. I dont know what the guy was thinking when he said one pedel driving is not possible. The level 3 regen is super aggressive so one pedal driving is absolutely possible in the Tiago.
Overdrive! When are you upping the video quality?
For a single car garage ec3 is easily the winner!
Space, comfort, ride and RANGE.
gives better real world range than Nexon EV.
I would prefer ec3 over even Nexon EV. Tatas real world range is very low than what is advertised.
Citroen is bigger than Nexon (or similar sized), having the same range as Nexon, Same battery size and is cheaper than Nexon by almost 3 lakhs. Overdrive is helping Tata by comparing a B Segment car against an A Segment car. This can be considered as a paid review...!
MG Comet's form factor is very easy to drive, a practical car for present times.
Driven around 19k on Tiago.EV. and it's the best decision I've ever taken in life
eC3 value for money
Why?
1) better range - 300KM without AC and 250KM with AC
2) better comfort
3) 100% DC Fast Charge compatible
4) spare wheel
5) wireless android auto and Apple car play
Also note that, eC3 going to get Shine variant where you get rear wipers, electrical ORVM, defoggers, reverse camera, 4 airbags etc
Now lets us talk about battery. Do the eC3 air cooled batteries are problem?
It is like same belief that water (liquid) can put off fire , but Corbon Dioxide (air) will technically put off the fire. It goes the same with cooling technology and how it is efficiently used.
Nope. Because eC3 uses battery from SVOLT and they use prismatic cells which are packed with more space also they have phase change material. And so their batteries are 275KG which is heavier than Nexon battery which is 260KG even it comes with liquid cooling.
Now do TATA cars are reliable? Nope, I do see lots of people complaining about HV Critical alert and they are getting their batteries and motors replaced. 3 out of 10 users are facing the issues, now think about what people will do when they ran out of warranty once they done 1.6L
Also when Citroen recommends doing 100% fast charging all the times, they are confident about their batteries as they last longer and more efficient. But TATA advice alternative slow charging because their batteries are not efficient.
As soon Punch EV launch, Citroen will launch their new variant.
If you need reliables EV that can last 3L KM+ or 10 Years then go with Citroen eC3 as
Motor is from BYD who is largest EV seller in world.
Battery is from SVOLT who knows a lot about battery.
Thank you for info.
What about their battery configuration? Li-ion or NFP etc...
Can you share those detail?
+ what is on-road price of ec3?
@@NathanSubramani Lithium-Ion, LFP and NMC , these are the battery types and eC3 uses LFP which is more reliable, have huge charging cycles.
Check with your nearest dealer for on-road pricing as I am just an tech enthusiast.
@@thenoobgamersid4829 aircooling & heat concern highlighted by other users as well. Any video explaining that?
Know of BYD... didn't know Citreon uses their motor
Also CVOLT is what company?
@@NathanSubramani SVOLT is a battery company which makes blade like batteries from the cells unlike the 3D matrix configuration of Tata (the issue with this is heavy heat is generated and there is no space to cool and thats why they use liquid cooling). SVOLT was a startup few years back and now they are almost competing with BYD batteries with their own blade configured batteries.
nice
Nice 🔥🔥tata 🔥🔥
Battery chemistry is same for all evs and crash test or safety?
Tiago EV is 4 star rated by NCAP
The MG Comet EV stands out as a top choice with its impressive range, cutting-edge tech features, and sleek design. Its longer range surpasses the Tata Tiago EV and Citroen C3 EV, giving more miles of electric driving pleasure without compromise. The Comet EV's combination of style, range, and innovation makes it the ultimate electric car in its class.
kitna paisa diya mg ne? it can't even sit 3 people comfortably
@@tds2839 may be he sounded biased but i still think the Comet should not be compared here ..its a pure city (imagine Bangalore - bumper to bumper Traffic ,road size , no parking space ) Car . I would choose this over others just for that since i won't worry taking it out . In that way Comet is really a great job done by any company in thinking , design and implementation rather just taking the petrol chassis and putting battery to make an EV.
Comet is so unsafe, if get hit from front the driver will be more injured than other EVs
@@amareshsattrue a comet is born ev car its is not pretending to be something else
MG comet is such a bloody joke box
The MG Comet EV has a spacious and comfortable interior. The seats are supportive and the legroom is generous, even for taller passengers. Comet is the best of all.
lol...spacious 😂😂😂
@@tds2839bhai hai...ek baar showroom par Jake toh aa
@@tds2839yes it’s very spacious inside 😍
MG Comet jyda better & khifayeti car hai baki dono se or haa MG ki quality jyda better hai.
Bro just called a ₹10 lakh car Auto Rickshaw 💀
Comet is basically a luxury 5 star auto 😂😂
I own one, and let me tell you, its the best car for city use.
@@RnR1001 pretty much 100%
4:56 I’m not even Maharashtran and I’ve lived in Pune for about a decade now, I don’t know what you’re talking about when you said no electricity on Thursdays? Like kuch bhi 🤷🏻♂️😂
No electricity on a Thursday in Pune? Real third world situation
8.00 background voice says front seats are not comfy and the next sentence anchor says it’s comfortable. Editor on leave?
Wish tata could bring back nano ev under 6 lakhs range
Wait for the punch EV.
It's come and it's selling like hot cakes!!❤ A TATA Product 🇮🇳🇮🇳💚
How many units of current required to full charge a Tiago ev LR XT model?? 0-100 %
The battery capacity is the units of current required. So, a 24kwh battery pack will use 24 units of electricity to charge from 0 - 100%
Tata is the best, Citron ok, MG Chinese.
Daily 200km driving is economical for ev. Best if used in taxi service.
why does he say no electricity on thursday in pune?
Because he is still in 2010, nowadays electricity outage is very rare in Pune!!
The MG Comet does not belong to this comparison. Its actually a soapbox on (tiny) wheels. I am really surprised the people are splurging so much on a Chinese toy.
It's stupid to be able to fit in luggage with thr seats down. If that is a metric the other two cars should also be allowed to use the real seats as luggage space
Waiting for tata nano ev
Citroen will give better range since it is 57bhp.
Tiago>>MG Comet>>>>>>>Citroen Ec3
If you remove the scond row seat that defets the purpose of family road trip.. comet doesnt make sense at all
Comet is good compared to a scooter as it is easy to park and will protect u from the weather...not worth spending so much money..
According to you if you compare Tata tiago against BMW IX, Tata will win because its a complete package- During your test did Tata got a puncture, if then tell us how you fixed it..?
Four door cars can open door at less amount of place
But,,
Comet can't open the same amount of place even if it a single door
Dealing with issues related to the Tata Tiago has been a frustrating experience due to inadequate customer service. Delays in servicing, ineffective problem resolution, and poor communication have added to the overall dissatisfaction.
Has your thoughts changed about their service now?
Comet EV has a better battery efficiency that makes the car more reliable and practical 😍
The tata car's performance falls short of expectations. From sluggish acceleration to an underwhelming driving experience, the Tiago's performance on the road has been disappointing.
16:56: Information is not correct. Isofix not available in comet. Please be careful while posting information.
Comet is a tuktuk with 2 doors. MG has made a good toy car for indoor games which is a good replacement for go-cart games.
Comet it does not reach well. eC3 its came new to Indian market so people does not have trust on it. Tiago EV the best as per my view.
It seems like they are upselling comet.
The Comet EV's eco-friendly nature and cost-effectiveness make it a smart and sustainable choice.
one off king petrol and diesel car. don't buy electric.electric car and bike is no power and etc.looks like a child machine😅
MG Comet--you can carry luggage of 4-5 people or carry 4 people you choose🤣🤣🤣
Citroen is making it difficult for us to buy its cars I don't know why they are doing what they are doing
don't know why editor did this but brightness is too much unbalanced and too bright it hurts my eyes >_
Comets are supposed to have a long tail. Talk about bad naming 😂
15 lakhs for 57 bhp ⚰️
Comet ev dabba
MG comet has the worst battery protection among these.
In which sort of India are you reviewing these cars? People having garages when most people stay on rent or in the rural area? If people would have a garage, they might be wealthy enough to own a bungalow, and then wealthy enough to have a car from premium brands.
I hate these indian reviewer trying to show as if india is like usa ... Where do we have charging stations DC on highway and garages for parking 2 cars ..
5.50 to 7 lakh is apt pricing for comet ev
Battery cost is 3 lakh and car is also heavier it’s kerb weight is 817kg and also have many good features so price is justified
would have been a steal deal at 5 ...
Comet = Comedy. But appreciate her idea of mind to tackle every shortcomings 😅😂
Tata EVs are plagued with problems, non existent after sales support makes it worse.
Lagta h Madam apko mg wale paise diye h😂😂😂
LMAO... Pune lane discipline is questionable ? Come to bangalore.. You'll faint
bull shit logic used for MG comet boot space.
Mg big failow fast charging....mg walo fast charging do..vrna fail hai ev comet
Shoddy audio
they are biased towards comet
Citroen is very expensive and not worth it.
overpriced junks
Don't buy ev's it's not worth 😂
Evs sucks
Sohini Dutt is Enough In Comet 😂
Comparo 😂. Bloody middle class
With a responsive engine and well-tuned dynamics, the MG Comet delivers an energetic driving experience that's both engaging and enjoyable on various road conditions.
