The BE 6 is one of the most powerful SUVs here and is producing 100 NM more torque than its rivals and generating more than 300 HP in the higher variants, with a bigger battery capacity and longer range.
- The Creta Electric has literally won here, when it comes to charging times then BE 6, Curvv EV, and the ZS EV, as it can juice up the battery from 0-100% in just 4.5 hours.
- Hyundai is also providing a bigger 11 kW charger as an accessory in the top model.

The Creta Electric is priced decently when we look at the competition, providing affordable options for customers. However, Curvv EV comes as the most cheaper package in this comparison, with Creta Electric scoring second and ZS as third. The BE 6 is the more pricier car in this segment with its bigger battery and improved dynamics of the born EV platform, it costs almost Rs 27 Lakhs (ex-showroom).
Going by the competition Hyundai is surely less in the power and performance but Hyundai knows this market very well and has priced it quite effectively.
