Our recommendation
Buy the MG Windsor EV.
It wins where it counts most for a Nepali buyer: you drive unsealed roads outside the valley — 20 mm more clearance.
Unless
Rs 14 lakh matters more to you than everything below — the Tata Motors Tiago EV is the cheaper car.
- The Tata Motors Tiago EV undercuts the MG Windsor EV by Rs 14 lakh — about 34% of the more expensive car's price.
- The MG Windsor EV carries 20 mm more ground clearance, which is the difference that shows up on unsealed roads outside the valley.
- Claimed range is within 16 km across the two, which is noise on a flat test cycle and less than nothing on a hill route.
- The Tata Motors Tiago EV has an independent crash rating; the MG Windsor EV has not been published, which is itself worth weighing.
- Both are electric, so both prices already carry the FY 2083/84 duty stack. The Clean Infrastructure Levy is banded by CIF import value, not by showroom price — run an importer's invoice figure through our EV tax calculator rather than reading a band off the sticker.
Buy the MG Windsor EV if
Our pick- you drive unsealed roads outside the valley — 20 mm more clearance
- you climb fully loaded — 61 hp more and 86 Nm more pulling power
- you want the bigger pack — 14 kWh more
Buy the Tata Motors Tiago EV if
- your budget is the binding constraint — it costs Rs 14 lakh less

How we score this
The verdict is not a count of who wins more specs. Each measure carries a fixed weight, the same on every comparison on this site, and the totals above are the weighted sum. Price and ground clearance count heaviest because budget and road surface are what most Nepali buyers are actually constrained by. These weights are our editorial judgement — published so you can disagree with the specific number rather than the conclusion.
- Price
- The binding constraint for most buyers.
- Ground clearance
- Nepali road surface decides where a car can actually go.
- Safety rating
- Independent crash testing, where published.
- Range
- EVs only. Manufacturer claim; hills run lower.
- Power
- Rarely the deciding factor at these prices.
- Torque
- Matters on climbs, but tracks power closely.
- Battery
- EVs only. Mostly a proxy for range, so counted once lightly.
13 points are available on this pairing. Tied measures award points to neither car.
When we call a gap a tie
A difference has to be big enough to change your experience of the car before we score it. Below these thresholds a measure is a tie and neither car takes the points, because a 5 mm clearance edge or a 1% price gap is not a reason to buy anything.
- Price — 3% of the dearer car
- Below 3%, dealer discount and financing terms move more money than the sticker gap does.
- Ground clearance — 10 mm
- Tyre choice and load change ride height by more than this. Under 10 mm is not a real difference on a broken road.
- Safety rating — half a star
- Star ratings are coarse and each step is a real structural difference, so any full-step gap counts.
- Range — 20 km
- Manufacturer claims are measured on flat test cycles. A gap under 20 km disappears on the first hill.
- Power — 5 hp
- Under 5 hp is not perceptible from the driver's seat.
- Torque — 10 Nm
- Under 10 Nm is not perceptible on a climb.
- Battery — 2 kWh
- Small pack differences are already counted once through range.
