We would advise against an electric car because your occasional 500 km long-distance trips could become a stumbling block. The real-world range of most EVs is under 500 km, which makes you dependent on public charging. The charging infrastructure is still not fully reliable and can significantly prolong your journey.
A hybrid is the next best option. It allows limited all-electric driving in the city, translating into substantial fuel savings, while still giving you the flexibility to travel long distances without worry. You could consider the Maruti Suzuki Victoris, which is efficient, reliable, and relatively affordable.
