              Pros & Cons

              • Pros
              • Cons
              • Kia Carnival

                • Most spacious car you can buy for under a crore
                • Rear seat comfort and space is much better than luxury cars costing double the Carnival’s price
                • Ample boot space behind the third row
                • The front 4 seats are powered, heated and ventilated
                • Impressive road presence despite being an MPV

                Mercedes-Benz EQA

                • Cabin quality — soft touch material of the dashboard and doorpads, good quality leather wrap for the steering. Feels properly luxurious!
                • Features: twin 10.25” displays, 710W Burmester Sound System, panoramic sunroof, powered front seats — all that you realistically need
                • Large 70.5kWh battery pack. Claimed range is upto 560km; expect ~450km in real world conditions.
              • Kia Carnival

                • Rear cabin quality should have been better
                • Noise insulation is not good for a chauffeur driven car

                Mercedes-Benz EQA

                • Lack of underthigh support in the rear due to raised floor.
                • Shallow 340-litre boot is best suited for smaller trolley bags.
