Tata Motors has officially revealed the production-ready version of the Tata Harrier EV, signaling an imminent launch. The all-electric SUV, first displayed as a concept at the Bharat Mobility Expo 2025 in January, has now been showcased in action, performing various maneuvers on a test track to demonstrate its capabilities.
Design and Features
The Tata Harrier EV retains much of the design language from its internal combustion engine (ICE) counterpart while incorporating EV-specific elements. One of the most noticeable changes is the closed-off grille, replacing the traditional front fascia with a sleeker look. Additionally, the bumper features vertical slats similar to the Tata Curvv EV, enhancing its modern appeal.
Further distinguishing the EV model are LED DRLs and headlights with welcome and goodbye animations, adding a premium touch to the vehicle. These changes contribute to a futuristic and aerodynamic aesthetic, aligning with Tata Motors’ vision for electric mobility.
Performance and Expected Specifications
While Tata Motors has not disclosed complete technical specifications, industry experts anticipate that the Harrier EV will come with a dual-motor all-wheel-drive (AWD) system, leveraging Tata’s Gen-2 EV architecture. The battery pack is expected to offer a range of over 500 km per charge, making it one of the most competitive options in the Indian electric SUV segment.
The electric SUV is also expected to support fast charging, allowing users to recharge the battery up to 80% within a short span. Advanced safety and connectivity features, along with Tata’s latest in-car technology, are likely to be key highlights.
Launch Timeline and Market Impact
The Tata Harrier EV is set to be a crucial addition to Tata’s expanding EV lineup. With its combination of SUV ruggedness and electric efficiency, it aims to attract both traditional SUV buyers and EV enthusiasts. The company has hinted that the official launch could take place in mid-to-late 2025, with pricing expected to be competitive against rivals like the Mahindra XUV.e8 and Hyundai Ioniq 5.
