Mountain Climbing Teaser: Extreme Test with High Torque.
The new teaser for Harrier EV is quite thrilling. The video begins with a set of coordinates – 9°39’58.1”N, 76°54’12.2”E – and shows a height of 3937 ft on the screen.
Then enters professional off-road driver Dr. Mohammed Fahed, who is going to take the Harrier EV to a mountain top.
The exact location has not been revealed in the teaser, but as per the coordinates, it could be Kurisumala mountain in the Vagamon area, near Irulan Cave, which is approximately 4000 ft high.
The teaser shows that this Tata EV is being prepared for climbing, and it seems that we will see more thrilling action in the upcoming videos.
All-Wheel Drive & Dual Motor Setup.
The biggest thing is that Harrier EV brings back AWD (All-Wheel Drive) technology in the Tata lineup. This electric SUV will have a dual motor setup that will provide power to all four wheels, meaning full grip, power, and off-road capability.
With the release of the teaser, one more thing has become clear that Tata Motors is now also testing its vehicles in extreme environments, just like Jaguar Land Rover does (remember when Range Rover Sport was driven to Heaven’s Gate in China?). The teaser of this EV car seems to be a tribute of the same level.
Platform & Architecture.
This Tata EV car is based on Tata’s new Gen 2 Acti EV platform. This platform is quite modern and advanced, which supports:
- Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) charging
- Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) charging
- Multi-link rear suspension with better ride comfort
- This high-voltage EV architecture will help make Tata’s EV portfolio more competitive.
Harrier EV Performance: 500 Nm Torque & Lightning Acceleration.
The powertrain of this tata car will have a 60-75 kWh battery pack, which will deliver:
- 369 bhp power
- 500 Nm of torque – which is much more than its rivals in the segment
This SUV has the capabilities of doing the 0-100 km/h sprint in under 6 seconds. With a better power-to-weight ratio, this SUV will not only be electric but also fun to drive.
Range & Driving Experience.
Along with the performance, the range of this EV also looks impressive. Tata says that this SUV will deliver a claimed range of 500+ km on a single charge. The AWD setup will provide not just power, but overall handling and agility like the top performers in the segment.
Harrier EV Interior & Features.
Inside the cabin, this EV car will come with a fresh dual-tone Gray & White interior theme. Tata is going to offer several premium features in it:
- 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system
- 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster
- panoramic sunroof
- JBL audio system
- Dual-zone climate control
- OTA (Over-the-air) updates
- Connected car technology
- Multiple terrain modes
All this together makes this Tata EV a feature-rich and tech-loaded SUV.
Design Changes: Familiar Yet Fresh.
Now, let’s dive into its exterior design. The Harrier EV will look similar to its diesel counterpart. Body panels, silhouette, lines – will remain mostly the same. But being an EV, the Harrier EV will get some distinct design touches:
- Blacked-out front grille
- Welcome/Goodbye LED DRLs
- New aero-optimized alloy wheels
- Multiple ‘EV’ badging
- The charging port will be the same as the diesel variant’s fuel filler.
Harrier EV Launch Date & Positioning.
Tata Motors is officially going to launch its next-gen electric SUV, Harrier EV, in India on June 3. The SUV will be a premium and aspirational offering in Tata’s EV lineup, marking the brand’s entry into a new luxury electric segment. Ahead of the launch, Tata has also released a new teaser of the vehicle, which doubled the excitement level among fans.
Tata’s Big EV Bet.
The Harrier EV is a bold and strategic move for Tata. It may not be a volume-based product, but with a premium placement, Tata Motors will be quite aggressive and will give tough competition to rivals like MG and Mahindra.
This EV will help boost Tata’s overall market share in the EV segment, especially for buyers who want a combo of performance and tech.
