Tata Harrier EV Revealed: 5 Key Things to Know Before It Takes the Road
Make room for the next electric SUV sensation. Tata Motors just uncovered the production-version Tata Harrier EV, and it’s causing a lot of commotion ahead of its reported launch in 2025. Recently revealed at their Pune facility, this all-electric mid-size SUV is promising to combine the Harrier’s rugged appeal with the best EV technology. Whether you’re an EV enthusiast or just curious about Tata’s latest offering, here are five key highlights that make the Harrier EV a game-changer worth watching.
1. A Familiar Face with an Electric Twist
The Tata Harrier EV might look like its diesel-powered sibling at first glance, but it’s got some clever EV-specific upgrades that set it apart. Goodbye traditional grille, substituted by a shut, swoop-type panel shouted “electric” from the rooftops. Vertical slats on the front bumper follow the Tata Curvv EV’s cue, and those wonderful connected LED DRLs also show welcomes and goodbyes. Narrow LED headlights, aerodynamically refined alloy wheels, and a small “.ev” badge on the doors finish the look. It’s the Harrier all over again—except this time it’s powered by electricity and ready for tomorrow.
2. Power Packed with All-Wheel Drive
The ugly duckling of a design hiding under its sharp appearance, the Harrier EV is a beast waiting to be unleashed. It’s built on Tata’s one-and-only purpose Acti.ev platform, and it includes all-wheel-drive (AWD) capability—a feature the regular Harrier never had. While Tata’s not giving us the actual power numbers just yet, word is it’ll be more powerful than the diesel Harrier’s 350 Nm of torque. This AWD setup’s not tokenism; it’s designed to handle everything from city streets to off-road adventures, so the Harrier EV is as useful as it is eco-friendly.
3. Range That Keeps Up with the Best
Worried about losing charge on a long drive? The Harrier EV has you covered. Tata claims it’ll deliver over 500 km of range on a single charge, which is on par with some of the best electric SUVs out there. Because of the Acti.ev platform’s flexibility (300-600 km across models), this SUV is suited for short commutes as well as weekend getaways. With a range like that, range anxiety is goodbye and you can drive off with assurance.
4. Tech and Features Galore
The interior of the Harrier EV is like a top-of-the-line upgrade with a dash of futurism. The design borrows from the ICE Harrier’s—floating screen, digital driver display, two-tone dashboard—but it’s the throw-ins that impress. You’ll get vehicle-to-load (V2L) and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) charging capabilities, perfect for powering your gadgets or lending a hand to another EV in need. Add in over-the-air updates, new terrain modes for the AWD system, and connected car tech, and you’ve got an SUV that’s as smart as it is stylish.
5. Coming Soon to a Road Near You
Tata isn’t making us wait too long—its Harrier EV will be here in the “near future,” and mid-2025 seems like a likely winner. With its impressive performances at the Bharat Mobility Expo 2025 and this latest showcase, its popularity has taken off in earnest. Priced aggressively (at Rs 25-28 lakh), it’s ready to take on big boys such as the Mahindra XEV 9e and BYD Atto 3. For Tata, this isn’t just another electric vehicle—it’s a statement of their dominance of India’s EV revolution.
Final Thoughts
The Tata Harrier EV is more than a fan-favorite SUV in electric form—it’s a step into the future of driving. With its bold styling, powerful AWD capability, stunning range, and tech-filled interior, it’s ready to disrupt the midsize EV segment in 2025. Can’t wait to see it on the road?
