TATA Sierra EV

Introduction

The Tata Sierra, first launched in 1991, is set to return as an electric vehicle by 2025. The Sierra EV will revive the popular nameplate with an electrified powertrain alongside a combustion-engine variant. This modern iteration will feature advanced technology and a contemporary design while retaining the essence of the original SUV. Expected to be available with two battery options, it will offer a range between 450 and 550 km on a full charge. Tata has already showcased the Sierra EV concept multiple times. Given that the Sierra ICE showcased at the Auto Expo 2025 is near-production-ready, the electric model is expected to follow a similar approach.
