After introducing the Punch EV facelift, Tata Motors is now set to launch the Sierra EV by this year’s second quarter (April to June), according to our sources. Upon launch, it will be positioned below the Harrier EV, Tata’s current zero-emission flagship. The Sierra EV will roll out of the manufacturer’s Sanand factory alongside the Sierra ICE, chief commercial officer Vivek Srivatsa told Autocar India earlier.
- Hyundai Creta Electric, Mahindra BE 6 among rivals
- Features such as panoramic sunroof, drive modes are likely
2026 Tata Sierra EV details so far
To be offered in both RWD and AWD options
Tata has confirmed that the SUV will be offered with both rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive setups, making it the second model to do so after the electric Harrier. There is also a possibility that the Sierra EV could use an integrated drive unit similar to the Punch EV, where the motor and key ancillaries are packaged into a single housing. Tata claims this helps keep the powertrain more compact and cost-efficient. If adopted, it could allow the Sierra EV to be priced competitively against rivals such as the Hyundai Creta Electric (Rs 18.02 lakh-24.70 lakh), Maruti e Vitara (Rs 15.99 lakh-20.01 lakh), Mahindra BE 6 (Rs 18.90 lakh-27.65 lakh) and others.
Minor design tweaks, ICE-version like screen setup
Going by the last teaser of the production-spec Sierra EV, it'll differ visually from the ICE version with a sealed-off front nose finished in body colour and mildly revised bumper detailing. The teaser didn't reveal much of the cabin, but a 2025 design patent points to a layout similar to that of the combustion-engined Sierra. A three-screen setup featuring a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, a 12.3-inch central touchscreen and a 12.3-inch passenger screen, a panoramic sunroof, powered and ventilated front seats, a premium audio system and drive modes are among expected features.
Ex-showroom price brackets of rival midsize SUVs are as of February 2025.
