The claimed range of over 500km on a single charge is one of the most talked about features of the Tata Avinya X. The figure is ambitious, and puts it on par with some of the most advanced EVs offered by global manufacturers. But there is a huge difference between advertised range and real world performance in Indian driving conditions. But unlike an ICE, driving an EV can depend on a lot of factors like traffic, climate, driving style and terrain. There are battery technology questions too, about what Tata is using to provide this range and whether it will hold up over time. There are some excited about a long range Indian EV, and others that are skeptical that Tata can deliver on this promise. The debate also covers factors other than range such as charging speed and the needed infrastructure. What do EV enthusiasts think about the Avinya X's range claims and what's the reality? Let's see.
