      10 Notable Elements In Tata Harrier EV Which Stand Out

      by

      Tata Harrier EVTata Harrier EV is one of the most anticipated launches in India. The company has launched it at a starting price of Rs 21.49 lakh (Ex-sh) and it is Tata’s flagship electric SUV. Tata has kitted it accordingly and it packs quite a lot of new elements that are noteworthy. In this post, we have compiled 10 notable elements of the just launched Harrier EV.
      Tata Harrier EV Launch Price
      1. More Affordable Than Harrier ICE
      We have to start with pricing because Harrier EV is more affordable than Harrier ICE. It is a hard pill to swallow given the notion that EVs are pricier than ICE vehicles. However, Harrier EV starts from Adventure trim level for Rs 21.49 lakh (Ex-sh) and Harrier Diesel Adventure AT starts from Rs 22.45 lakh (Ex-sh). A brave new world, eh?
      Tata Harrier EV Samsung Neo QLED Screen
      2. Largest-In-Segment Samsung Neo QLED Infotainment Screen
      For the first time in mainstream Indian car segment, Tata Motors is upping the quality of display technology in infotainment field. That’s because Harrier EV packs a Neo QLED screen from Samsung, which is the largest in its segment at 14.53-inch. Also, the Quantum layer it packs, has high contrast with inky blacks and exceptional HDR performance for life-like visuals. This infotainment screen packs off-line maps by MAPPL for reassurance.
      Harrier EV E-Valet
      3. Self Parking & Summon Mode
      Harrier EV packs a suite of autonomous parking features bundled as e-Valet. Under this suite, Tata is offering features like autonomous parallel parking (in and out) and autonomous perpendicular parking (in and out). Also notable are ‘anywhere parking’, remote park assist and summon mode.
      Harrier EV New Circular Key
      4. New Set Of Keys
      To access these new set of self parking features, Tata is offering Harrier EV a new remote key, which is circular in shape and is quite small and sleek with dedicated buttons for self parking and summon mode. There’s a Digital Key feature too which supports key sharing. When you don’t want to carry your physical key or your smartphone, Tata offers a NFC key card as well.
      Harrier EV E-IRVM
      5. E-IRVM with DVR Function
      Tata Harrier EV is the first mainstream vehicle in India to offer an E-IRVM that also has DVR function. This replaces a regular IRVM and it packs a display projecting the feed from rear camera and front camera. Even if you fill Harrier EV’s boot till the roof, you can have uninterrupted rear vision with this E-IRVM. With the help of a QR Code, users can download footage of front and rear cameras for documentation. Like a Dashcam.
      Harrier EV Ultra Glide Suspension
      6. Ultraglide Suspension
      For the first time after discontinuation of Nano, Tata Motors is offering independent rear suspension on their vehicles. Called Ultra Glide suspension, it is a multi-link setup with frequency dependent dampers to unlock sharp handling and supreme comfort depending on the Terrain Mode Harrier EV is in.
      Harrier EV 540-Degree Camera
      7. 540-Degree Cameras
      You may have heard of 360-degree cameras and Transparent Bonnet features. Tata Motors is taking these features a notch above and is offering what they call 540-degree view with Transparent Mode. Cameras capture the view of Harrer EV’s underbody and stitch it with 360-degree camera feed to create a truly holistic view of what’s around.
      Harrier EV Performance
      8. Performance
      Wanted a sportscar-like performance in a mainstream car? Harrier EV comes the closest as it packs dual-motor setup with a peak torque of 504 Nm in Boost Mode. While Tata did not disclose combined total system power, rear motor is rated at 238 PS and front motor at 158 PS. 0-100 km/h sprint comes up in just 6.3s. Good news is that Harrier EV is the first ‘RWD as standard’ vehicle from Tata since the discontinuation of Nano, Safari Storme and Hexa in 2020.
      Harrier EV Terrain Modes
      9. Off-Road Capabilities
      The same QWD setup that unlocks massive performance on road, also allows for exceptional off-road prowess as well. Harrier EV has an approach angle of 25.3°, departure angle of 26.4° and a break over angle of 16.6°. There are 6 Terrain Modes on offer with Harrier EV to aid users during off-roading – Normal, Sand, Mud Ruts, Snow / Grass, Rock Crawl and a Custom Mode. Harrier EV was even the first vehicle to do the impossible Elephant Rock Climb challenge in Kerala.
      Harrier EV Zenith Suite
      10. Zenith Suite
      Harrier EV comes with Tata’s Zenith suite as standard. This suite brings a host of comfort features for Harrier EV occupants. These features include powered front seats, ventilated front seats, memory function for driver’s seat, powered Boss Mode for front passenger seat, panoramic sunroof, 65W fast-charging Type C ports, comfort headrest and more.

      Tata Harrier EV Rock Climb Challenge – Off-Road Features Revealed

      by

      Tata Harrier EV Elephant Rock ClimbTata Motors is all set to launch Harrier EV tomorrow on 3 June, 2025. Ahead of the launch, Tata Motors has just posted a jaw-dropping video of Harrier EV climbing the formidable Elephant Rock in Kerala which poses great challenges with tricky terrains and even a 34-degree incline. This is a stellar accomplishment and many would even regard it as an impossible task.
      The same video also teases some of Harrier EV’s off-road features, which helped it traverse this tricky and dangerous stunt and come out on top victorious. Let’s take a look at these off-road features along with Tata’s new QWD (Quad Wheel Drive) setup and the new sophisticated suspension in action.
      Tata Harrier EV Off-Road
      Tata Harrier EV Elephant Rock Climb
      In a chilling video, Tata Motors has demonstrated the off-road capability of its upcoming Harrier EV flagship electric SUV. The company seems to have taken marketing cues from its subsidiary brand, Land Rover, that has demonstrated off-road capabilities through impossible challenges. Tata Harrier EV Elephant Rock climb is no different.
      Tata Harrier EV Off-Road
      Located in Kerala state, this Elephant Rock has a peak elevation of 3937 ft above sea level and it poses a formidable terrain that is impossible for a car to scale. For it is a tough trail for human trekking and an unforgivable nightmare for a vehicle. Even a minor slip would redeem dangerous as the vehicle would roll down into the abyss.
      Tata Harrier EV Off-Road
      This trail is loosely categorised into three stages – Minefield, Ridge and Beast. Minefield is riddled with jagged rocks and loose boulders and the test driver of Harrier EV turns on ‘Off Road Assist’ feature. Harrier EV also comes with a Transparent Mode where cameras under the vehicle stitch together a feed into the large infotainment screen lending uninterrupted underbody view.
      Tata Harrier EV Off-Road
      Off-road prowess!
      Ridge stage posed different challenges as it brought craters and inclinations into the equation. This is where the Rock Crawl Mode on its updated Terrain Response system comes into action. In the video, we can see a few heroic shots of Harrier EV traversing through these tricky terrains with wheels in the air in some cases.
      Tata Harrier EV Off-Road
      Beast stage of this challenge is trickier still as there is a steep 34-degrees incline for Harrier EV to tackle. Which it impressively tackles with the help of Boost Mode which seems to unlock all of Harrier EV’s performance. Harrier EV’s dual-motor QWD (Quad Wheel Drive) system comes into its own offering four-wheel traction which is paramount in situations like these.
      Tata Harrier EV Off-Road Features
      Range expectations
      The video Tata Motors posted of Harrier EV scaling an Elephant Rock in Kerala also gives us insight into the powertrain related aspects. Particularly the range, where Harrier EV’s instrument cluster shows 560 km range with 90% SOC (State Of Charge). 550 km range with 88% SOC and 525 km range with 85% SOC can also be seen. This could indicate a claimed 600 km range on full charge. More details will be revealed at launch on June 3, 2025.

      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.
      Tata Harrier EV Undisguised
      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

It gets an all-black exterior along with #Dark badges on front fenders and it gets Dark Chrome elements on exteriors replacing regular shiny chrome. Wheels are blackened and there are no silver trims on offer on this model. Notably, EV badges continue to be Blue, like on non-Dark versions.

      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
