      by

      2025 Tata Sierra RenderAiming for 4-6% jump in market share, Tata Motors will introduce new models across both ICE and EV segmentsTata Motors has drawn up aggressive plans to boost its market share over the next 2-3 years. From the existing market share of around 14%, the goal is to achieve an increase of around 400-600 basis points. Tata’s upcoming new car launches will play a key role in achieving that target.Tata new launches – Curvv and Harrier EVSome of the upcoming new Tata cars will be available in both ICE and EV formats. A relevant example is Curvv, which is expected to debut during FY24-25. Curvv EV and diesel variants will be launched first. Petrol option is expected to be added at a later stage.Tata Curvv and Nexon CNG Spied Testing TigetherICE Curvv will challenge popular compact SUVs such as Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Maruti Grand Vitara, Toyota Hyryder, Honda Elevate, Skoda Kushaq and Volkswagen Taigun. Curvv EV will take on the upcoming Creta EV, Maruti eVX and Toyota’s rebadged version of eVX.In the mid-size SUV segment, Tata is working on the petrol and EV versions of Harrier. Both these models are expected to be launched by the financial year ending March 31, 2025. Harrier is currently offered with only a 2.0-litre diesel engine. It generates 170 PS and 350 Nm. Transmission choices include 6-speed MT and 6-speed AT.Tata Harrier EV spied in PuneTata Harrier EV will be underpinned by the new Acti-EV architecture. This is already in use with Punch EV. Harrier EV is expected to get a 60-kWh battery pack, with a range of around 500 km. It will have a dual-motor setup and AWD system. Harrier EV will primarily rival the upcoming electric version of Mahindra XUV700. The latter will go on sale as XUV.e8.Tata Sierra design patent leaksSierra EV and Avinya models expected in FY26Similar to Harrier EV, the upcoming Sierra EV is expected to get a dual-motor setup and an electric all-wheel drive system. Tata Motors has already filed a design patent for Sierra EV. A number of design features have been borrowed from the original ICE Sierra that was in production from 1991 to 2003. At a later stage, Tata could introduce an ICE powertrain for the new Sierra.Tata’s flagship EV brand will be Avinya. It will spawn multiple new electric cars, underpinned by JLR’s EMA platform.

      New Hyundai Inster EV Teased With 355km Range – Punch EV Rival?

      by

      Hyundai Inster EV TeasedHyundai Inster EV is not confirmed for India, but similar powertrain might make its way to upcoming Exter EV and rival Punch EVElectric cars are currently gaining popularity in India and is among the priorities for most car manufacturers. Hyundai seems to be diving in at the idea with Creta EV, speculated to be launched in early 2025. What about the A-segment where faster adoption of E-mobility makes more sense? Recently teased Hyundai Inster gives us an idea.Hyundai Inster EV Teased – Design and AppealEver wondered what an electric version of Hyundai Casper would look like? Hyundai just gave us the answer in the form of Inster EV. If you’re wondering if Exter means outdoorsy adventure lifestyle and Inster means something to be driven inside the city, that would be wrong. In fact, Inster name has nothing to do with Exter at all.Hyundai Inster EV NameAccording to Hyundai, Inster name is inspired by the words “intimate” and “innovative”, combined with Casper name, the vehicle on which it is based. As of now, Casper is Korea only and Hyundai is tight-lipped about the intended markets for the recently teased Inster EV.Hyundai Inster EV Casper’s SilhouetteCasper was first introduced in 2021 and the upcoming Inster will carry a similar silhouette as seen in Hyundai’s teaser image. Inster will get a unique fascia, but is reminiscent of Casper. We can see a similar bonnet, windscreen and overall side silhouette. Charging port is at the front, but not centred, like in Punch EV.Hyundai Inster EV Vs CasperInster boasts new pixel-style quad-element circular LED DRLs and pixel-style 7-element LED turn indicators too. Tail lights get a pixel effect as well. Alloy wheels of Hyundai Inster look unique, though. Just like Casper, Inster will come equipped with crossover bits like roof rails, body cladding and reasonably high ground clearance.According to Hyundai, INSTER is poised to set new standards in driving range and technology, and safety features. Speaking of range, company has revealed that Inster will do 355 km (WLTP) on a single charge. Battery and motor specs were not disclosed.Hyundai Inster EV FasciaShould Hyundai launch it in India?India has been embracing e-mobility solutions at a decent pace. More companies have been exploring EVs today, than they ever did, in India. Hyundai is one of the companies selling electric cars in India. Soon, the company will explore electric mobility solutions in the mainstream segment.Currently, Hyundai Kona price starts from Rs. 23.84 lakh (Ex-sh) and Creta EV, when launched, is likely to start upwards of Rs. 16 lakh (Ex-sh). Lion’s share of India’s electric car sales is from smaller electric vehicles like Punch EV, Tiago EV and MG’s Comet EV. So, targeting this space is paramount for any OEMs to push more volumes.Hyundai Inster EV Charging PortEven though the South Korean brand has not confirmed Inster for India (yet), it makes perfect sense. Inster’s crossover design looks miles better than Exter launched in India and it would naturally target Punch EV, which is currently the hottest EV in mainstream segment. Or, the powertrain from this Inster EV will be similar to what we will get in Exter EV in the future. Or Kia Clavis EV or Syros EV.Hyundai Inster EV LED DRLs More

      2 Hyundai Creta EV Test Mules Spied In Delhi Wearing New Camo

      by

      Hyundai Creta EV Test Mules SpiedExcluding the electric underpinnings, Creta EV will have largely the same profile and features as the ICE CretaIn the compact SUV segment, users will soon be able to choose from multiple new electric options. One of these will be Hyundai Creta EV, expected to be launched in early 2025. Other upcoming options include Tata Curvv (ICE + EV), Mahindra BE.05, Maruti eVX and Toyota’s version of eVX.Hyundai Creta EV Spied In Delhi – Latest Spy ShotsTest mules of Creta EV have been spotted multiple times in recent months. Latest spy shots of the Creta EV are from Delhi, credited to automotive enthusiast Sitanshu. These test mules are wearing a different camo than earlier spotted Creta EV test mules and probably are in near production-ready stage.Hyundai Creta EV Test Mules SpiedWhile heavily camouflaged, the core silhouette and lighting elements appear to be the same as ICE Creta. Hyundai has essentially chosen an ICE to EV conversion approach for its first mainstream electric car in the Indian market. Choosing Creta makes sense, as the SUV is already a bestseller. It is popular for its sporty profile and powerful performance.Hyundai Creta EV Test Mules SpiedMoreover, ICE Creta was recently introduced in its facelift avatar. It has received a comprehensive range of updates, all of which will be available with the upcoming Creta EV. By sharing the same platform and features, Creta EV could be launched at a competitive price point. An intense battle is expected in the electric compact SUV segment. With competitive pricing and Creta’s strong brand value, Creta EV will be aiming to gain an edge over rivals.Hyundai Creta EV Test Mules SpiedAs seen with test mules, Creta EV will have the charging port installed at the front. Other key features include sequential turn indicators, horizontally stacked LED positioning lamps and DRLs and a chiselled bonnet design. Side profile will be distinguishable with a new set of aero alloy wheels. While reducing the SUV’s air drag coefficient and helping improve range, the aero alloy wheels also have cosmetic relevance. At the rear, Creta EV will be getting connected LED tail lamps, a curvy spoiler, sequential turn signals and a high-mounted LED stop lamp.Hyundai Creta EV Test Mules SpiedCreta EV interiorsSome of the features on the inside can be borrowed from other Hyundai electric cars. For example, Creta EV could be equipped with the 4-dot steering wheel, as seen with Ioniq 5. Other features will be borrowed from ICE Creta. It will include a dual screen setup, voice enabled panoramic sunroof and front ventilated seats. There will be a Bose premium sound system and dual-zone climate control. ADAS is also confirmed, as a test mule spotted recently was seen with a bumper-mounted radar module.Hyundai Creta EV Test Mules SpiedCreta EV range, specsWhile there is no official confirmation, it is expected that Creta EV will have a certified range of around 450 km. To increase range, Creta EV will be equipped with an advanced regen system. A 45-kWh battery pack is expected to supply power to a single motor mounted on the front axle. If the electric motor is borrowed from new-gen Kona, output will be 138 hp and 255 Nm.Hyundai Creta EV Test Mules SpiedHyundai has plans to introduce at least five new EVs by 2030 in India.

      New MG Sub 4m Electric Car Patented – Nexon EV Rival

      by

      Wuling BinguoEV Patented In IndiaWhere rivals are concerned, new MG sub 4m electric car, the BinguoEV, will rival Nexon EV, Punch EV, Citroen eC3 and XUV400One new NEV (New Energy Vehicle) every three to six months. That’s what JSW MG Motor India JV thinks it will take to recreate what Sajjan Jindal, MD of JSW Steel, referred to, as ‘The Maruti Moment’. The company is rigorously working in that direction and has patented one of its (potentially) upcoming EVs in India. Say Namaste to BinguoEV.New MG Sub 4m Electric Car PatentedBack in December 2023, SAIC GM Wuling conglomerate launched BinguoEV in Indonesia. If you’re wondering whether it is the same car as Wuling Bingo, Bingo (see what I did there?). In our previous post, we expressed how BinguoEV can be one of the potential launches for India to rival the likes of Tata Nexon EV, Citroen eC3 and to some extent, Mahindra XUV400.Wuling BinguoEV Patented In IndiaWhere dimensions are concerned, upcoming MG BinguoEV measures 3,950 mm in length, 1,708 mm in width, 1,580 mm in height and has a long wheelbase of 2,560 mm and boasts up to 790L boot space. BinguoEV is based on SGMW Global Small Electric Vehicle platform and it shares a few interior elements with MG Comet EV.In India, SAIC GM Wuling vehicles will launch under the MG brand. In keeping with JSW MG Motor India’s ambitious roadmap, we would reckon BinguoEV might launch in India by 2025. Indonesian pricing starts from IDR 317 million and goes till IDR 372 million which roughly translates to Rs. 16.27 lakh and Rs. 19.09 lakh in today’s currency exchange rates.Wuling BinguoEV launched in Indonesia in 3 coloursWhere design is concerned, Wuling BinguoEV has a cute-sy appeal with a curvaceous body and smooth sheet metal profiling. Overall design and proportions remind me of a new Fiat 500. Design highlights include X-shaped LED elements in the headlights, water-splash design wheel caps on 15-inch wheels, dual-tone floating roof exterior appeal, and X-shaped LEDs in tail lights. There are disc brakes at all four wheels too.The colour palette includes Milk Tea, Mousse Green and Galaxy Blue. BinguoEV interiors share a few components with Comet EV like the dual screens and steering wheel. There is leatherette cladding on dashboard and door panels with stitching along with shiny metallic-looking materials.Wuling BinguoEV InteriorsSpecs and RangeIn Indonesia, Wuling is offering two powertrain configurations – a 31.9 kWh battery with a 41 bhp motor and 333 km range or a 37.9 kWh battery with a 68 bhp motor and 410 km claimed range. Unlike MG Comet, Binguo EV gets DC charging compatibility too with a charging port on front right fender. Interestingly, BinguoEV gets a lifetime warranty with an asterisk, a free 7kW charger and a few free accessories in Indonesia.Suppose JSW MG Motor India is positioning BinguoEV above Comet EV as a more practical 5-Door electric hatchback that is smaller than their upcoming Cloud EV. We can see how it might be a compelling product. However, pricing has to be right. Considering MG’s pricing strategies since their debut in India have been reasonable, we can expect it to undercut Nexon EV by some margin.Wuling BinguoEV Patented In India More
