Tata Motors is gearing up to supercharge its premium SUV lineup with the official debut of the Harrier EV on 3 June. Previously seen in various concept and pre-production avatars โ including a prominent showcase at the 2025 Bharat Mobility Expo โ this is Tataโs biggest, boldest electric SUV yet.
If you’re after a rugged, tech-forward EV that stays true to its Indian roots, the Harrier EV could tick all the right boxes.
Design
At first glance, the Harrier EV stays true to the ICE Harrierโs bold styling. Youโll see the same muscular stance, strong shoulder lines, and sleek side profile. But look closer and youโll notice EV-specific tweaks โ a closed-off grille, subtle EV badging, and possibly new alloy designs that set it apart without going over the top.
Inside, expect a cabin that mirrors the standard Harrier โ minimalist yet modern, with a large infotainment screen, layered dashboard design, and upscale materials. The difference will come in the form of EV-exclusive touches and connected tech that elevate the experience.
Features
The Harrier EV isnโt just going electric โ itโs going smart. Tata is loading it with future-ready features, including:
- V2L (Vehicle-to-Load): lets you power gadgets or tools directly from the carโs battery
- V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything): enables communication with grid systems and smart infrastructure
- Summon Feature: likely reserved for top trims, allowing the vehicle to park itself
- Connected Car Suite: with OTA updates, app controls, and remote health monitoring
- ADAS (expected): semi-autonomous safety tech building on the existing Harrier platform
Powertrain
While detailed battery specs are under wraps, Tata has confirmed a few key highlights:
- Claimed range: up to 500 km on a full charge
- Dual-motor layout: offering electric AWD โ a first for Tata EVs
- Gen 2 EV architecture: enabling better performance and support for larger battery packs
The twin-motor setup not only promises all-weather traction but also introduces light off-road ability โ rare in electric SUVs at this price level.
Expected Price
Slated to top Tataโs EV lineup, the Harrier EV is expected to carry a price tag between โน24 lakh and โน28 lakh (ex-showroom).
Hereโs how it stacks up against the competition:
Model | Estimated Price Range |
---|---|
Hyundai Creta EV | โน23 โ โน25 lakh |
MG ZS EV | โน18 โ โน25 lakh |
Kia Carens EV | โน20 โ โน26 lakh |
Maruti e-Vitara | โน22 โ โน25 lakh |
BYD eMAX7 (Upcoming) | โน27 โ โน30 lakh |
Segment Impact
The Harrier EV isnโt just another addition โ it marks a bold step in Tataโs EV journey. Positioned as a feature-rich, high-performance family SUV, it blends power with practicality and presence.
With the Tiago EV and Nexon EV already dominating the budget and mid-tier segments, the Harrier EV gives Tata a credible entry into the premium EV arena. If it delivers on range, features, and value โ as it seems poised to do โ this could be a defining moment for Tata in Indiaโs electric vehicle evolution.
