The Tata Sierra EV is officially launched in India at Rs. 18.79 lakh (ex-showroom), With 665 Km Range. Let me walk you through everything we know right now.
What the Sierra EV is
The original Tata Sierra was India’s first full monocoque SUV, launched back in 1991. It had a unique three-door body, a sloping glasshouse roof, and a look that nobody else had. It became a cultural icon before it was discontinued in 1999.
The new Sierra ICE (petrol and diesel version) was already launched in late 2025 and has been very well received. Tata is placing it between the Nexon EV and Harrier EV, so it is meant to be a mid size electric SUV with more space and more tech than smaller EVs, but without jumping all the way to the biggest Tata electric SUV. That makes it an important new model in Tata’s EV line up.

The Design
The design is one of the main reasons people are excited about the Sierra EV. It keeps the classic Sierra shape, which gives it a familiar and strong look, but the electric version gets a closed grille, new LED light work, revised bumpers, and EV specific badges.
What I like most is that Tata has not tried too hard to make it look futuristic just for the sake of it. Instead, the SUV feels clean, upright, and easy to recognise. That is a smart move because the old Sierra name already carries a lot of memory and emotion. From the side, the silhouette stays simple and chunky, which should help it stand out in traffic. It looks like a proper SUV, not a crossover pretending to be one. That alone will matter to many buyers who want a vehicle with a strong presence and not just a soft shape.
Expected colour options include White, Red, Black, and Yellow.
Battery, Range & Power
The Tata Sierra EV’s base Pure variant will be offered with the automaker’s 65 kWh battery pack, as confirmed by dealer sources. The QWD/AWD variants will be offered with the 75 kWh battery pack. Here is a breakdown of what each battery means in practice:
65 kWh – Single Motor, Rear-Wheel Drive (RWD)
Expected range figures are strong. The 65 kWh version is said to offer around 538 km of claimed range, while the 75 kWh version could go beyond 627 km, and some reports suggest the EV version may cross 600 km in official testing.
75 kWh – Dual Motor, AWD (QWD)
The 75 kWh battery pack for the QWD/AWD powertrain offers a claimed MIDC range of up to 622 km, with the front motor producing 155.8 bhp and the rear motor producing 234.7 bhp. The cumulative torque stands at 504 Nm, one of the highest in its class.
504 Nm of torque and over 600 km of claimed range in a midsize SUV. That is a compelling meaning genuinely attractive and hard to argue against package at this price point.
DC Fast Charging
The car should also be compatible with DC fast charging speeds of up to 120 kW for quick topups on a road trip. At 120 kW charging, you can add a significant chunk of range in 20–25 minutes, which makes long motorway drives very practical.

Features
Tata has built a reputation for packing serious equipment into their electric cars, and the Sierra EV is expected to carry that forward in style. The electric SUV will feature a triple screen setup comprising a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, and a 12.3-inch front passenger screen.
The top-spec model will be equipped with the triple screen dashboard, while lower variants will get a dual-screen setup and a Heads-Up Display. Other expected features include:
- Panoramic sunroof.
- Head up display.
- Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
- 12 speaker JBL sound system or Dolby Atmos audio in higher trims.
