Where the BE 6 does better

Dashboard layout

BE 6: Generally negativeCurvv EV: Strongly negative

Curvv EV: “नेगेटिव्स फर्स्टली आई विल स्टार्ट विद कप होल्डर... बहुत बड़ा इशू है कप होल्डर का... अगर आप वायरलेस चार्जर वाला वेरिएंट नहीं लेते तो आपको कप होल्डर... क्या सोच के डिजाइन के किसने किया?”

Where the Curvv EV does better

Curvv EV: Strongly positiveBE 6: Generally negative

Curvv EV: “Ride comfort gets better the worse the road conditions get — the suspension feels really robust, the whole impression is that this car can take the worst of the pounding our roads can put it through”

Driving position

Curvv EV: Generally positiveBE 6: Generally negative

Curvv EV: “Having that power adjustment, it's really super convenient — I'd be spoiled now in a car without power adjust, you can really find the ideal driving position”

BE 6: “ये स्टीयरिंग जो है ये पैरों पे पड़ता है... भैया की भी हाइट यार ऑलमोस्ट 6 फीट की है। तो मतलब टॉल हाइट वालों के लिए थोड़ी सी ये दिक्कत इस गाड़ी में है... पैरों को अंदर डाल के एडजस्ट करने में बड़ा मेहनत लगता है”

Seat comfort

Curvv EV: Generally positiveBE 6: Generally negative

Curvv EV: “तो कर्व एक्चुअली कर्व की सीट ज्यादा चौड़ी है (the Curvv's seat is actually wider)”

BE 6: “यस थाई सपोर्ट के अंदर जरूर थोड़ा सा दिक्कत है... क्योंकि फ्लैट इसका पूरा सरफेस है और नीचे क्योंकि बैटरी है तो गाड़ी को हाइट देने की कोशिश करी गई है। जो कि अंदर थोड़ा सा थाई सपोर्ट में दिक्कत है। पर लेग रूम में कहीं कोई दिक्कत नहीं है”
