    Tata Harrier EV Spied Undisguised – Launch Nears

    by

    Tata Harrier EV Spied UndisguisedWhile following largely the same styling approach as its ICE sibling, Harrier EV will be getting several additional features
    As competition intensifies in the electric vehicle segment, Tata Motors aims to boost sales with new product offerings. One of these is the Harrier EV, scheduled for launch on 3rd June. Ahead of that Harrier EV has been spotted undisguised on road tests as seen in the spy shots from automotive enthusiast Avinash Anushe. Harrier EV exudes a macho appeal and massive road presence. Let’s take a look.
    Harrier EV Spied Undisguised – Upgrades over ICE Harrier
    Based on Tata’s acti.ev Gen 2 EV architecture, Harrier EV is designed to deliver a better performance. It will be Tata’s first electric car to have an all-wheel-drive (AWD) setup. With a dual motor setup, one mounted on each axle, Harrier EV will have improved traction and stability across challenging environments such as off-road, snow and rain. In Tata’s terminology, Harrier EV’s AWD configuration will be marketed as QWD (Quad Wheel Drive).
    Tata Harrier EV Undisguised
    With dual motors, Harrier EV will have a higher torque output of around 500 Nm. In comparison, ICE Harrier utilizes a 2.0-litre diesel engine that makes 170 PS and 350 Nm. With the Harrier EV, enthusiasts will be able to unlock more exciting experiences across diverse terrains. Users can also expect enhanced acceleration, easier overtaking and a more dynamic overall performance with the AWD improving handling and versatility.
    Overall performance will be further improved with a multi-link rear suspension. In comparison, the ICE Harrier utilizes a torsion beam rear suspension. Users can expect smoother rides over uneven surfaces, along with better handling and stability. Harrier EV will also be getting a self-parking function that Tata calls the ‘Summon Mode’. It is expected that Harrier EV could be equipped with a 60-75 kWh battery pack. Range is expected around 500 km.

    Exteriors, equipment list
    Exterior styling of Harrier EV is largely the same as its ICE counterpart. In the latest spy shots, one can notice the serrated turbine blade wheels that are designed to improve aerodynamic efficiency. The wheels are the same as seen with the unit showcased at the 2025 Bharat Expo. Apart from the wheels, the side profile retains the styling seen with the ICE model. The EV has conventional body-coloured door handles, blacked-out pillars, a slightly rising belt line and the charging port mounted on the right.
    At the rear too, Harrier EV has the same profile as the ICE version. At the front, Harrier EV borrows the lighting elements from the ICE Harrier. However, there are some EV-specific differences such as the closed-off grille and a more refined and futuristic bumper section. Harrier EV could also get some new colourways.
    Tata Harrier EV Undisguised
    Inside, the equipment list will be mostly the same as seen with ICE Harrier. Some of the key highlights include a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a 10.25-inch digital driver’s display, a panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats, dual-zone climate control and a 10-speaker JBL sound system. There will be some EV-specific features such as Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) and Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) charging. Safety kit will include Level 2 ADAS, 7 airbags, 360° camera, hill hold assist, blind spot monitoring and tyre pressure monitoring system. More

      by

      Tata Nexon EV crash test – Bharat NCAP 2024Nexon EV is one of the landmark vehicles sold in India and is attributed to making EVs an attractive proposition rather than a drab solution. Nexon EV is also held in high regard where vehicular safety is concerned as it scored 5 Star ratings in Bharat NCAP testing. Now, the 5 Star crash safety rating is also extended to its 45 kWh battery variants. Let’s take a closer look.
      Tata Nexon EV 45kWh Scored 5 Star

      Electric Car Catches Fire While At Dealer For Service

      by

      Tata Nexon EV Catches FireIn an unfortunate and alarming incident, a Tata Nexon EV reportedly caught fire while it was parked at a service center following an accident. The car, which had been dropped off for repairs, was completely destroyed in the fire.
      What happened
      According to the owner, “I met with a small accident at night one day. I was driving back home and it was raining heavily, Some construction work was going on and there were no hazard warnings. There was a big pit filled with water right on the curb of the road. My vehicle fell into it. Being an EV it was not starting as expected and we dropped it off at the service centre the next day.”
      The service center attributed the fire to battery damage. However, complications soon arose. Although the service team initially verbally assured the owner of providing a replacement vehicle — reportedly a Tata Harrier — at a minimal cost, no formal action was taken. Despite the assurances, it has now been over eight months with no resolution.
      Adding to the owner’s woes, the vehicle was financed and he continues to pay EMIs for a burnt vehicle. To make matters worse, United India Insurance, the insurer, has reportedly declined to clear the IDV (Insured Declared Value) claim, allegedly offering compensation only for the battery pack instead of the full vehicle value. The owner of the car has shared details in the video below by Baiju N Nair.
      [embedded content]
      “First two months they were very cooperative and supportive ( verbally offered me any car from the brand for just a very minimal cost) but now they are not keeping their word and not helping me claim my insurance as well. Also they are not giving evidence or any report of the incident,” added the owner.
      Waiting for resolution
      The frustrated owner also shared his experience on Reddit, underlining the lack of cooperation from the dealer and insurer. Community members advised him to escalate the issue by filing a police FIR, reaching out to consumer forums, and using social media to highlight the incident.
      This case raises concerns over post-accident handling of EVs, insurance claim processes, and customer service accountability when vehicles are damaged under dealer custody. It also brings into focus the potential risks associated with electric vehicles exposed to floodwater and subsequent maintenance processes. More

      Tata Avinya Steering Wheel Patented – Will Not Get Digital Logo Like Nexon, Harrier

      by

      Tata Avinya Electric Car Steering WheelCompared to the existing steering wheel seen with Tata cars, the one for Avinya has a more premium and polished appearance
      As electrification gains momentum, Tata Motors will be introducing multiple new EVs in the coming years. At the 2025 Bharat Expo, the company had showcased three of its upcoming EVs – Harrier EV, Sierra EV and the Avinya Concept. Tata has now patented the steering wheel to be used with the Avinya EV.
      Tata Avinya steering wheel patented
      For several of its cars like Nexon EV, Curvv EV, Harrier and Safari, Tata already utilizes a striking design for the steering wheel. It has the illuminated Tata logo in the centre. The one to be used with the Avinya has a familiar two-spoke design, but there are several distinctive features. For example, the centre of the steering wheel gets ‘Avinya’ badging instead of the Tata logo. Avinya will be among the most premium range electric cars from Tata Motors. As such, it must emphasize its own brand identity.
      Tata Avinya Electric Car Steering Wheel
      While existing Tata cars have the steering wheel centre pad in glossy black finish, Avinya utilizes a leather-wrapped centre pad. The various corners and surfaces have a smooth, polished appearance, which further enhances the overall look and feel. Avinya’s steering wheel has various touch-based controls for seamless access to the car’s functions. On the left side, users will be able to access controls for the calls and music. And on the right, the steering wheel will have dedicated tabs for the ADAS and cruise control. The steering wheel is expected to be offered in a dual-tone finish.
      With the two-spoke design of the steering wheel, Avinya users can get a clear view of the instrument screen. This improves overall convenience as well as safety. Earlier, images of the Avinya Concept had also revealed a stalk on the left side of the steering wheel to control gear shifts. The new steering wheel has minimalistic and futuristic vibes, which complements the overall aesthetics of Avinya’s cabin space.
      Tata Avinya Electric Car Steering Wheel
      Tata Avinya – Key features
      Based on concept images, Avinya stands out as one of the most captivating Tata cars to date. Some of the key features include T-shaped full-width LED strips at front and rear, a closed-off grille and sleek LED headlamps and DRLs. Side profile has flush door handles, blacked-out pillars, door side moulding and sporty alloy wheels with aerodynamic design. At the rear, Avinya has a tapering roofline, a sharp fin antenna and a heavily raked windshield.
      Tata Avinya X Concept
      Inside, the dashboard has the T-shaped full-width lighting bar and horizontally placed AC vents. All controls appear touch-based, which ensures a clutter-free profile. There’s a large freestanding touchscreen infotainment system, likely to be more than 12 inches. Avinya has ambient lighting, comfy seats and a comprehensive range of premium features.
      While Tata has not revealed any specifications about the Avinya, it is likely to have a range of more than 500 km. Both RWD and AWD variants could be on offer. Tata Avinya is expected to be launched in 2026. More

      Tata Yu Autonomous Self Driving Vehicle Patented

      by

      Tata YuAn autonomous, self-driving vehicle, Tata Yu can transport both goods and people to their respective destinations
      With electrification and technology advancements, the future of mobility will be quite different from what we see today. Providing a glimpse of things to come is this new Tata Yu cargo van that fulfils the last mile connectivity needs of both goods and people. As Tata Yu can be a gamechanger, Tata has filed a patent for the same. Let’s take a look at the details of Tata Yu and try to understand its potential.
      Tata Yu project details
      Primary architects of the Tata Yu concept are Ansuman Mallik and Atmaj Verma. The 6-month project was taken up at the Strate School of Design, Bangalore and was sponsored by Tata Motors. Folks providing the required guidance and mentorship included Ajay Jain (TATA Motors), Edmund Spitz ( HOD of the Transportation Design, Strate School of Design, Bangalore) and Thomas Dal (Dean, Strate School of Design Bangalore).
      Tata Yu design patented
      Ansuman Mallik and Atmaj Verma came up with the idea for Tata Yu when they noticed that goods and people often take the same routes. And yet, the current transportation system has different vehicles for cargo and people. As cargo and people were often moving in the same direction and destinations, the creators started thinking about a vehicle that can carry both cargo and passengers. The search eventually led to the creation of the Tata Yu concept.
      Tata Yu – How it works?
      In the middle section, Tata Yu has plenty of space for storing e-commerce parcels. And at the rear, the van has space for passengers. The e-commerce parcels are stored in the middle section in boxes of various sizes. The van collects these directly from the warehouse and delivers it to the desired location. It has the capability to automatically sort these boxes, as per the delivery destination.
      Tata Yu
      The delivery is done in two ways. At places where a dedicated automated transfer system is available, the e-commerce parcels are directly deposited in that system. In this project, this automated transfer system is referred to as the ‘bridge’. In the future, such systems can come up at various offices and housing complexes.
      [embedded content]
      Another way to deliver the parcels is via the delivery executive. Similar to food delivery apps, gig workers can get details about the package to be delivered. They can accept the offer and pick up the parcel from the van at the designated stop. They can then deliver the parcel to the destination and earn their commission.
      Talking about moving passengers, the process is the same as seen with taxi operators like Uber. Passengers can enter their destination on the app. If any van is going in the same direction, they can hop on and reach their destination. Payment will be made via the app. Tata Yu can accommodate two passengers.
      Tata Yu specs
      In its concept form, Tata Yu is 3,700 mm long, 1,500 mm wide and 1,800 mm tall. The vehicle will be powered by hub-mounted motors. More details such as battery capacity and range are not available right now. The vehicle will take several years to reach production stage. The creators are looking at a timeline of 2030 and beyond for the Tata Yu project to become commercially available. More
