Tata Harrier EV: India’s electric vehicle (EV) market is growing rapidly, and Tata Motors has taken a bold step forward by launching the Tata Harrier EV. This all-electric SUV is a significant evolution of the popular internal combustion engine (ICE) Harrier, re-engineered for an eco-friendly future. With a focus on performance, safety, and advanced technology, the Harrier EV is positioned to lead the mid-size electric SUV segment in the country.
As Tata Motors continues to strengthen its EV portfolio, the Harrier EV brings a combination of muscular design, impressive electric range, off-road capabilities, and modern connectivity features. Built on the acti.ev+ architecture with OmegaArc elements, the SUV promises not just sustainability but also thrilling performance and practicality suited for Indian conditions.
Power and Performance
The Tata Harrier EV is offered in two battery pack options—65 kWh and 75 kWh—both using Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) chemistry. The 75 kWh battery in rear-wheel-drive configuration offers a claimed range of up to 627 km (MIDC), which makes it one of the highest-range EVs in the Indian market. Fast charging support up to 120 kW ensures that the battery can be charged from 0 to 80 percent in about 25 minutes.
A more powerful AWD variant, known as the QWD (Quad Wheel Drive), is also available. It is equipped with two motors—one on each axle—delivering a combined output of around 390 bhp and 504 Nm of torque. This configuration enables the Harrier EV to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.3 seconds. The SUV is also capable of handling off-road conditions with its robust mechanical setup and six terrain response modes including Rock, Sand, Snow, Mud, and Custom.
