Tata Sierra: A Legend Reborn
ICE and EV Variants
The Tata Sierra, a name that sparks nostalgia, is back with a bang, set for an August 2025 launch at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo. The Sierra EV, built on the Acti.ev platform, will likely feature a 60-80 kWh battery, delivering a 500+ km range with single or dual-motor setups. The ICE version will debut a new 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine (170 PS, 280 Nm) or the trusty 2.0-litre Kryotec diesel from the Harrier. With a bold, boxy design, a triple-screen interior, and features like a panoramic sunroof and Level 2 ADAS, it’s ready to challenge the Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos. Expected price: ₹20-30 lakh.
