The Tata Sierra has been making headlines ever since its first preview at the Auto Expo 2020. Now, we have finally seen the SUV in its full production-ready version, retaining most of the design elements from the concept. At the recently held investor briefings and dealer presentations, Tata Motors confirmed that the Sierra EV will arrive at showrooms by 2025 Diwali season. The SUV will initially be introduced with an electric powertrain, and its ICE-counterpart (petrol and diesel versions) will arrive in early 2026.
Tata Sierra EV – Range, Battery, Power
The electric Sierra will be designed on the brand’s new Acti.ev platform, which also underpins the Punch EV and Curvv EV. Official powertrain details are yet to be revealed, though it’s reported to borrow the 65kWh and 75kWh LFP battery packs from the newly-launched Tata Harrier EV.
The smaller battery comes paired with a rear-axle mounted electric motor delivering a claimed MIDC range of 627km, while the larger battery pack is paired to dual motors promising an electric range of 622km. The range figures for the Sierra EV might be slightly different from the Harrier EV. Similar to the Harrier EV, it might get QWD (quad wheel drive) or AWD (all-wheel drive) system.
Tata Sierra Petrol & Diesel
| Expected Engine | Specs |
| 1.5L naturally aspirated petrol | – |
| 1.5L turbo petrol | 170PS/280Nm |
| 2.0L diesel | 170PS/350Nm |
The ICE-powered Sierra will directly rival the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos and Maruti Grand Vitara. Initially, its petrol version will be offered with an all-new 1.5L naturally aspirated petrol engine. At a later stage, the SUV will receive a new 1.5L turbo petrol engine that pushes out a maximum power of 170bhp and 280Nm of torque. The Tata Sierra diesel model is likely to feature a 2.0L Kryotech turbocharged engine, borrowed from the Harrier, which produces a maximum power of 170PS and 350Nm of torque.
