Tata Motors has an aggressive EV product strategy for the Indian market. In 2025, the home-grown automaker is set to launch at least three new electric cars, including the Harrier EV, Sierra EV, and Altroz EV. All these EVs will be showcased at the 2025 Bharat Mobility Show. The Tata Harrier EV will be the first product offering from the indigenous automaker in 2025. Here, we answer all the questions about the Harrier EV, revealing its powertrain details, features, design, and expected prices.

What powertrain is offered with the Tata Harrier EV?

Powertrain specifications of the Harrier EV are yet to be revealed officially. However, the electric SUV is likely to use a 60 kWh battery along with a dual electric motor setup. It is expected to offer a range of around 500 km on a full charge. The EV will support both V2L (vehicle-to-load) and V2V (vehicle-to-vehicle) charging functionalities. One of its test mules was spotted with a rear-mounted electric motor, hinting at the presence of an AWD (all-wheel drive) system.

What features does the Tata Harrier EV offer?

Based on spy images, it’s clear that the Harrier EV will feature a large 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connectivity, a digital instrument cluster, a four-spoke steering wheel, a wireless phone charger, an electronic parking brake with auto-hold, a touch-based HVAC panel, a 360-degree surround camera with blind-spot monitoring, a stubby gear selector lever, Level 2 ADAS technology, and a panoramic sunroof. There will also be yellow accents throughout the cabin and a mounted speaker, while the dashboard will be carried forward from its ICE version.
