When choosing the best electric car for highway driving in India, claimed range (MIDC/ARAI) can be misleading. On highways (driving at 90–110 km/h), EVs consume \*\*20% to 30% more energy\*\* due to aerodynamic drag and sustained high speeds. The ideal highway EV requires \*\*a large battery pack (50 kWh+)\*\*, \*\*fast DC charging capabilities\*\*, and \*\*solid high-speed suspension and ADAS (Adaptive Cruise Control)\*\*. --- ## 🏆 Top Picks by Budget Segment ### 1\.
