Tata Sierra EV is expected to be launched before the end of the current financial year, and the ICE variant will follow it up, powered by a 1.5L petrol and a 2.0L diesel engine.
At the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, the production-ready New Tata Sierra was finally unveiled, marking the return of the recognizable nameplate. As road tests continue around India, camouflaged prototypes have kept the SUV in the public eye for the past few months. In early 2026, Tata intends to launch the Sierra EV first, with its release anticipated to precede that of the ICE-powered diesel and petrol variants.

Interior and Space Expectations
The interior of the midsize SUV is anticipated to seem roomy due to its extended wheelbase, steeply sloped windshield, and towering pillars. Externally, flush-style door handles and strong wheel arches contribute to the modernism. Subtle cosmetic changes will distinguish the EV and ICE models, even though they will share the majority of their design characteristics.
Expected Price and Positioning
It is anticipated that Tata will place the new Sierra marginally above the Curvv, with ex-showroom costs ranging from Rs. 13 lakh to Rs. 25 lakh. Modern charging features, including DC rapid charging and bidirectional technologies like vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-load (V2L) power transfer, will be included in the electric version.
Engine and Transmission Options for ICE Models
A brand-new 1.5-liter turbocharged petrol engine with 168 PS and 280 Nm and a tried-and-true 2.0-liter diesel engine with 170 PS and 350 Nm are anticipated to be featured in the forthcoming Tata Sierra’s ICE lineup. There will be drive and terrain modes available, and buyers may anticipate both six-speed manual and six-speed torque converter automatic gears.
EV Powertrain, Range, and Performance Expectations
Although Tata has not formally stated if the dual-motor design and lifetime battery warranty of the Harrier EV would be carried over to the Sierra EV, these features are generally assumed to be included. It is anticipated that the electric SUV will have a range of more than 500 kilometers.
Technology and Interior Features
A 360-degree camera system, a four-spoke steering wheel, a Level 2 ADAS suite, powered and ventilated seats, a 12.3-inch infotainment screen, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, and an additional 12.3-inch display angled towards the driver are just a few of the technological features that buyers can anticipate in the cabin.

Our Take on the New Tata Sierra
One of the most anticipated debuts in India’s SUV industry is the Tata Sierra’s comeback. The Sierra is expected to appeal to a broad spectrum of consumers seeking performance, style, and cutting-edge technology thanks to its contemporary design, cutting-edge features, and both EV and ICE powertrain options.
After the successful rebirth of the Safari in 2021, this is Tata’s second significant legacy brand revival. With its ‘electric-first’ approach, the new Sierra combines the nostalgia of the 1990s with more contemporary sensibilities, capitalizing on India’s multigenerational devotion to Tata SUVs.
