Tata Harrier EV Concept

Tata Harrier EV is expected to launch in India in late 2024 and it will likely be priced in the upwards of Rs. 26 lakh (ex-showroom)

The upcoming Tata Harrier EV will certainly strengthen the brand’s ever-growing lineup of all-electric models in the domestic market. Notably, it will be the first electric vehicle built on the OMEGA (Optimal Modular Efficient Global Advanced) architecture. The platform, originally derived from Land Rover, has undergone extensive re-engineering to facilitate electrification in the form of a Gen 2 platform.

The five-seater electric SUV is speculated to be equipped with a 60 kWh battery pack, driving two electric motors — one mounted on each axle to create an all-wheel-drive configuration. The Tata Harrier EV concept unveiled at the 2023 Auto Expo earlier this year was said to have a similar setup with 4×4 layout and the claimed driving range will be more than 500 km on a single charge.

It will more likely feature V2L and V2V capabilities to further enhance its practicality. The all-electric Harrier is expected to maintain a close resemblance to the recently launched Harrier facelift, with only minor revisions made to accentuate its electric appeal. It is worth noting that the Harrier EV concept has heavily influenced the recently launched facelifted avatars of the Nexon, Nexon EV, Harrier and Safari.
