Excellent diesel motor for comfort cruising. It's pretty refined contrary to the online narratives by reviewers. Suspension is soft and comfortable is supreme. Own the Acoomplished diesel at.
For mostly city-based usage, the Tata Sierra would suit better as it feels more manageable in daily metro traffic.
Bestest car ever I've seen. It's very good like comfort, safety, etc. All are very best in an affordable price. Just its power sometimes feels low and mileage should be better. But lastly it's returned to its legacy!!!
My Tata Sierra diesel engine breakdown happened on the first delivery day itself. Car is in service center and I am paying EMI. Engine replacement on the first day is not good.
The Tata Sierra EV is worth waiting for, expected to launch in the next 3-4 months. It's an automatic, soundless, hassle-free car that can improve life in traffic jams and on highways.
The petrol manual variant is not recommended. The engine feels underpowered, making it difficult to drive up ramps and flyovers.
We had the Tata Sierra for about two months, and the mileage it delivers after the first service is 9.4 kpl.
Mahindra cars have better torque delivery on the highway compared to Chevrolet and Ford. Mahindra seems good in today's market options.
Tata Sierra has many videos showing reliability issues. Check Instagram for performance insights before deciding.
I have brought a TATA Sierra adventure plus Automatic Diesel. I drove 1200km and it's an amazing experience, did not feel tired. The car is world-class. However, the service from the authorised dealer was disappointing. They did not keep their commitment regarding delivery schedule and other promises.

•4dHi, I currently own a second-generation Maruti Suzuki Swift Petrol Manual, which I have driven for around 80,000 km over the last 10 years. I am now planning to upgrade to a new car. I work in the private sector, and my primary usage will be daily office commuting during weekdays, along with occasional long drives on weekends with family. We are a family of five - my parents, wife, 4-year-old child, and myself. At the moment, I am confused between the Kia Seltos 2026, Tata Harrier Petrol, and Tata Sierra Petrol. My average monthly running is quite low, at around 500 km. My budget is around ₹16-18 lakh on-road with BH registration.

The Kia Seltos 1.5 NA petrol seems to be the right fit as a family car. It suits your low monthly use, is easy to drive every day, and it'll feel like a huge step up from your Swift in space, comfort and modernity. The Tata Harrier and Tata Sierra are larger and heavier cars, and their 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine isn't likely to be as fuel-efficient as the Kia either. Also, while they're wider, which makes them more suited to ferry three adults abreast in the back, for everyday use, these could feel relatively more cumbersome to drive and park in the city. For your use and budget, the Seltos NA petrol seems ideal. You could also consider the CVT automatic version for a smoother, more effortless drive.

•5dI'm confused between the Kia Seltos HTE and the Tata Sierra Pure. I want a petrol manual. My running will be around 1,000 km per month, including both city and highway driving. Please suggest which would be the better car for me between the two.

Autocar India
Between the Seltos HTE petrol manual and the Sierra Pure petrol manual, we would pick the Kia Seltos with confidence. For your kind of usage of around 1,000 km a month across both city and highways, it is the most complete and easiest car to live with. The Kia’s 1.5 naturally aspirated petrol is more responsive, easier to drive and feels more effortless in everyday conditions than the Sierra’s naturally aspirated engine, which has to work harder because the Tata Sierra is a larger and heavier SUV.The Seltos also gives you a more reassuring ownership experience, with a more polished overall package and a cabin that feels more premium. For a buyer looking for a straightforward long-term family SUV without surprises, that matters.The Sierra’s clear advantage is space. It is a wider car, offers more rear seat room, and its broad back seat makes it a better genuine five-seater if you regularly carry three adults at the rear.But unless maximum rear seat space is your absolute priority, the Seltos is the stronger all-around choice here.

•5dI currently own a Renault Kiger CVT and really like its smooth and tractable engine, both in city driving and on highways. However, I now feel that the car is slightly small for my needs, and the interior quality also feels a bit average. Because of this, I am planning to upgrade. At the moment, I am confused between the Renault Duster and the Tata Sierra. My priorities are: Good boot space Comfortable front and rear seats Strong family SUV appeal Excellent ride and handling dynamics At the same time, I do have concerns about Tata’s long-term engine reliability and the brand’s after-sales service experience, as Tata service is often considered inconsistent. Could you please guide me on which of these SUVs would make more sense for long-term ownership and family usage?

Autocar India
The Renault Duster certainly rides and handles better, and has a bigger boot too. However, its rear seat space is tight compared to a Tata Sierra, which is much more spacious in comparison. And besides a roomier cabin, the Sierra's seats (front and rear) are comfier, its cabin feels more inviting than the Duster's, and the turbo-petrol is a strong performer too.Overall, as a family car, the Sierra fits the brief better. Yes, it doesn't have a good reputation as far as reliability and after-sales service go, so we'd recommend you opt for the longest warranty coverage on the car.

•1wMy weekday driving is around 120 km in the city, with occasional highway trips of 20-50 km. My budget is ₹10-17 lakh. I do not like naturally aspirated engines and am worried about DPF-related issues if I go for a diesel, even though I liked the Seltos Diesel AT. The Kylaq and Duster felt a little cramped to me. My priorities are safety, good ergonomics, and a fun-to-drive experience. Please suggest a good car. I am 6 feet tall.

Autocar India
With a long city commute, some short highway runs, a Rs.10-17 lakh cap and a clear dislike for non‑turbo motors, the Kia Seltos 1.5 turbo petrol automatic suits you best. It gives you the strong low‑speed pull you want without any diesel DPF worries in stop‑go traffic. The front seats, steering reach and height make it easy for a 6‑foot driver to get comfy, and the cabin feels roomier than the Kylaq and Duster you found tight. It is also one of the nicer cars to drive in this price range, with direct steering and a calm, stable feel at speed, and it packs the safety features you’d expect.One thing to note: the DCT can hesitate a bit at slow speed. If that is an issue then consider the Sierra turbo petrol AT. It is also one of the roomiest in class so you should find it comfortable. Overall for your needs, the Seltos is a good fit.

•1wI am confused between the new Tata Sierra and the newly launched Renault Duster. Which is the better option between these two cars?

Autocar India
If you want the more rugged and driver focused SUV, pick the Renault Duster. It is likely to feel more engaging from behind the wheel, with a smoother dual clutch automatic and a tougher, more no nonsense character that should appeal if driving feel matters to you.The Tata Sierra, on the other hand, is the better choice if your priorities are comfort, premium cabin feel and family use. It feels more modern, more desirable and likely to offer a richer overall cabin experience, with a comfortable ride and strong road presence.The real difference comes down to character. The Duster feels like the more rugged, enthusiast friendly choice, while the Sierra is the more polished and premium family SUV.
