Tata Safari EV Launch Date
2026
Tata Safari EV Estimated Price
₹ 22.50 - ₹ 30.00 Lakhs

The Tata Safari EV is set to launch in India by the festive season of 2026. The Tata Safari EV price is expected to start at around Rs 22.5 lakh (ex-showroom). As Tata’s new flagship electric offering and first three-row EV, the Safari EV will rival the likes of the Mahindra XEV 9S.

The Safari EV is expected to be underpinned by the same acti.ev+ platform that the Tata Harrier EV also rides on. To that end, the Safari EV will likely offer the same 65kWh and 75kWh battery options as the Harrier EV, along with RWD and AWD layouts. The Safari EV range is anticipated to be marginally lower than that of the Harrier EV, which delivers an MIDC-claimed 538km-627km range, depending on the variant.

On the outside, the Tata Safari EV is likely to sport minor differences over its ICE counterpart, such as a closed-off grille section, revised bumpers, EV badging, new aero-optimised alloy wheels, and more. Fresh colour options are also expected for the Safari EV.

The Safari EV interior is anticipated to remain largely unchanged from that of the ICE Tata Safari, save for subtle changes like different colour schemes and trim pieces in certain areas. However, the features list of the Safari EV could be bolstered with a 540-degree camera, better-calibrated Level 2 ADAS, an expanded roster of terrain modes, OTA updates, auto park assist, a summon mode, and more.

Am looking for a 7-seater SUV EV and am awaiting the Tata Safari EV launch. How will having the battery pack under affect seating comfort? Also, is the 3rd row usable or will it be suitable for short people and short trips? Will the AWD version be suitable for off-roading?

The Tata Safari EV certainly looks promising if you're after a 7-seat electric SUV, but some questions can only be answered once we get behind the wheel. Based on what we know so far, there are a few reasonable expectations. As with most modern EVs, the battery pack is mounted under the floor. Manufacturers usually compensate by raising the seating position slightly, so outright comfort shouldn't be compromised significantly. That said, there can be some impact on under-thigh support and seating posture, particularly in the third row, depending on how successfully Tata has packaged the battery.As for the third row, don't expect miracles. Like most three-row SUVs in this size class, it is likely to be best suited to children, teenagers or shorter adults on longer journeys. Average-sized adults should be fine for shorter trips, but if you regularly carry seven adults, the third row is unlikely to be as accommodating as the one in the Kia Clavis EV. The AWD version should offer noticeably better traction on loose surfaces, gravel, mud and rough trails than the standard model. However, it is important to remember that the Safari EV is still a monocoque family SUV, not a dedicated off-roader. It should be capable of handling mild to moderate off-road conditions and adventure touring, but serious off-roading won't be its primary brief.
