Exterior

The Tata Sierra EV features a clean and modern front fascia with a slim full-width LED light bar that runs across the width of the vehicle, giving it a futuristic appearance.

The LED headlamps are positioned lower on the bumper. The front bumper uses a large blacked-out section that contrasts with the body colour, complemented by a silver skid plate.

The side profile retains a tall and boxy silhouette with a nearly flat roofline, large side windows with blacked-out pillars (except for the B-pillar which is body coloured) to create a floating roof effect as well as the Sierra’s signature Alpine window styling.

The Sierra EV sits on 19-inch dual-tone alloy wheels, the design of which is same as the ICE model. The front doors get a signature 'Tata.ev' badging. You can check out the design of the Sierra EV in-depth in our image gallery.

The rear of the Tata Sierra EV follows the same clean and minimalist design theme as the front, with a wide and upright tailgate.

A slim full-width LED light bar stretches across the tailgate connecting the two LED tail lamps. The Sierra.ev lettering is neatly placed below it.

The rear bumper features a prominent black lower section along with a similar silver skid plate-style as the front.

The Sierra EV is offered with two new shades that are not available with its ICE version. There are a total of seven colour options:

Do note that the Nainital Nocturne colour option in the Sierra EV which has been borrowed from the Harrier EV is only offered with the all-wheel drive variant. You can find the variant-wise colour distrubution here.

Interior

The Tata Sierra EV's cabin shares the same overall dashboard layout as the ICE-powered Sierra, with a clean and modern design.

The dashboard uses a mix of soft-touch materials and contrasting finishes that enhance the premium look and feel of the cabin. A three-screen setup dominates the dashboard, while the dual-tone interior theme gives the cabin an airy and premium feel.

Key elements such as the four-spoke steering wheel, AC vents, door armrests, and centre console have been carried over from the ICE model.

The seats feature a different dual-tone upholstery, with the upper half finished in a darker shade than the standard Sierra. All seats come with adjustable headrests, while the driver gets a powered seat with a memory function for added convenience.

The climate control panel remains touch-sensitive and is finished in gloss black, making it less intuitive to use while also being prone to fingerprints and scratches.

Both front and rear passengers get a centre armrest, while rear occupants also benefit from rear AC vents, USB Type-C charging ports, and manual sunshades for the side windows.

Features

The Sierra EV borrows features from the Harrier EV like Summon Mode, and auto-park assist. It also gets EV-specific features like V2L (Vehicle-to-load) and V2V (Vehicle-to-load) technology. The Sierra EV also gets an in-car payment feature called 'DrivePay'.

Other features shared with its ICE sibling include a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment with , a 12.3-inch co-passenger entertainment screen, a 10.25-inch digital driver’s display, ventilated and 6-way power-adjustable front seats with memory function, Boss mode for co-passenger seat, and dual-zone climate control, rear sunshades, a panoramic sunroof, a head-up display (HUD), a wireless phone charger, a NFC card key, an air purifier, a gesture controlled powered tailgate and a 12-speaker JBL sound system.

The performance focused features in the Sierra EV include multi-terrain modes with a Boost mode.

Safety

The Tata Sierra EV supports 120 kW DC fast charging, which can charge the battery from 20 to 80 percent in around 26 minutes, while also offering 7.2 kW AC home charging and 3.3 kW portable charging options. Curious, which variant gets which battery and drive option? We've detailed that here.

Rivals

The Tata Sierra EV sits in a very interesting space of compact electric SUVs. With the features and specifications it offers, it's fair to say the Sierra EV does put up a strong challenge to its rivals. The topmost of the contenders being:

Hyundai Creta Electric: Holds trust and widespread appeal due to its nameplate. It is also one of the most practical eSUVs in this segment, with 473 km of claimed range.

Maruti e Vitara/Toyota Ebella: The two similar eSUVs rely on strong brand values alone. Thanks to Maruti’s loyalty, the e Vitara has seen a considerable rise in sales ever since its launch.

Mahindra BE 6: It's almost impossible to ignore the BE 6 when you’re talking eSUVs. Besides being an absolute looker, the BE 6 delivers good performance and a long list of features.

VinFast VF7: Even though it's new to the market, the VF7 is gaining ground on our shores. With a feature-rich cabin and a choice of an all-wheel drivetrain, the VF7 is a good choice too.
