Tata Motors is set to launch the Sierra EV in India on June 30, and fresh details about the upcoming electric SUV have emerged ahead of its market debut. According to dealer-level information, the entry-level Pure variant is expected to be equipped with a 65kWh battery pack, while higher-spec all-wheel-drive versions are likely to use a larger 75kWh battery.
The 65kWh battery is already available in the Harrier EV, where it powers a rear-wheel-drive setup producing 238 BHP and 315 Nm of torque. Tata is expected to carry over a similar powertrain configuration for the Sierra EV. In the Harrier EV, this battery pack delivers a claimed MIDC-certified driving range of 538 km.
The larger 75kWh battery pack is expected to be reserved for the Sierra EV’s dual-motor QWD (Quad Wheel Drive) variants. This setup combines front and rear electric motors to produce a total torque output of 504 Nm. In the Harrier EV, the same battery and drivetrain combination offers a claimed MIDC range of up to 622 km.
Charging options are also expected to mirror those offered with the Harrier EV. Buyers could get a standard 3.3kW AC charger, while a faster 7.2kW AC charger may be available on select variants.
The Sierra EV marks Tata Motors’ eighth electric vehicle for the Indian market and is among the company’s most anticipated launches. The model has evolved through multiple concept iterations since its first appearance and is now ready for production. Design, dimensions and equipment levels are expected to remain largely similar to the recently introduced ICE-powered Sierra.
Expected pricing for the Sierra EV is likely to fall between Rs. 20 lakhs and Rs. 25 lakhs (ex-showroom). Upon launch, it will compete with upcoming and existing electric SUVs including the Maruti e Vitara, Toyota Urban Cruiser EV, Hyundai Creta Electric, Mahindra XEV 9e, Mahindra BE 6 and the Tata Curvv EV.
