Tata Safari EV Set for Diwali Launch to Take on Mahindra XEV 9S
Tata Safari EV launch expected by November 2026 It will take on the Mahindra XEV 9S To get a dual-motor AWD drivetrain
The Indian electric SUV segment is set to witness a barrage of new vehicles from domestic as well as global markets. Tata Motors is aiming to hold on its market share by introducing several new electric vehicles. The company has officially confirmed to introduce 3 brand new electric SUVs, including the Sierra EV, Safari EV and Avinya EV before the end of this financial year, FY2027. The Tata Safari EV, the upcoming flagship 7-seater EV will make its commercial debut during the Diwali 2026 festive season.
This 7-seater electric SUV will directly take on the Mahindra XEV 9S, which is gaining good traction among Indian buyers.
Acti.ev+ (Gen 2 Acti.ev) platform: Specs & AWD
The new Tata Safari EV is built on the Acti.ev+ platform that also underpins the Harrier EV. The platform will allow Tata to offer AWD capabilities, flat floor and extended length to accommodate third-row seat.
Powertrain: the new Tata Safari EV is likely to feature two battery choices - a 65 kWh pack for lower-spec variants and a 75 kWh pack for the higher-spec variants. The electric SUV is expected to offer a claimed range of around 600km (MIDC), and a realistic range of around 450-500km on a single charge.
AWD Capability: The Safari EV will be a rear-wheel-drive electric SUV; however, the higher-spec model will offer a Dual-Motor All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system. It will feature dedicated “Off-Road” and “Snow” modes.
Design and Interior Details
While it retains the silhouette of the ICE-powered Safari, the EV version will receive EV-specific design changes. It will have a fill-width connected LED daytime running lamp strip with welcome and goodbye animations, a closed-off “Parametric” grille, 19-inch aerodynamic alloy wheels, and unique ‘.ev’ badging in Electric Blue.
Inside the cabin, the Safari EV is likely to get a 12.3-inch floating touchscreen with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a 10.25-inch digital driver’s display, and a dedicated four-spoke backlit steering wheel. The SUV will get a 540-degree surround view camera, LEVEL 2 ADAS tech, front parking sensors, electrically adjustable front seats, dual climate control, panoramic sunroof and others.
The Safari EV will come with Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) and Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2L) capabilities. The SUV is expected to be offered with both 7 and 6-seat with the latter having captain seats in the second-row. It is expected that the Safari EV could get second-row ventilated seats.
