Tata Harrier EV Review: Bold New Design with EV Identity
The Tata Harrier EV’s design doesn’t stray far from the ICE Harrier but gets a clean, tech-forward makeover. Up front, it features a full-width LED DRL strip, a closed grille, and bifunctional LED projector headlamps with integrated cornering lights and fog lamps. Aero elements like active vents near the headlights improve cooling and efficiency.
The side profile remains muscular but gains a new set of 19-inch aero-specific alloy wheels with low rolling resistance tyres. Subtle EV badging and blacked-out trim (including roof rails) reinforce its electric character. At the rear, connected LED tail lamps, a roof spoiler, and the “Harrier.ev” branding give it a modern, premium feel.
Dimensions-wise, the Harrier EV measures 4,607mm in length and offers a strong road presence – it even looks ready to rival the likes of the Toyota Fortuner. The boot space stands at 502 litres, and there’s a bonus frunk: 67 litres in the RWD and 35 litres in the AWD.
Interior Loaded With Tech & Comfort
Step inside and you’ll instantly notice the massive 14.5-inch Samsung-sourced QLED touchscreen that supports wireless Apple CarPlay, Amazon Alexa, Dolby Atmos, and climate controls. The dashboard gets a carbon fibre-like trim, dual-tone seat upholstery with contrast blue stitching, and soft-touch materials all around.
The Harrier EV comes with ventilated front seats, a 10-speaker JBL system, and a 10.25-inch fully digital instrument cluster. The rearview mirror doubles as a rear dashcam and streams high-res footage from the rear shark-fin-mounted camera – a feature borrowed from Land Rovers.
Other highlights include a 360-degree camera with transparent bonnet view, cooled centre armrest, wireless charging, 65W fast-charging USB-C ports, and Boss Mode for rear passengers to electronically move the front passenger seat. Rear seat comfort is excellent, with a panoramic sunroof, manual sunshades, and ample legroom.

Dual Battery Options and Real-World Range
Tata offers the Harrier EV in two configurations – a 65 kWh battery and a larger 75 kWh battery. The base RWD variant is available with either pack, while the dual-motor AWD is offered only with the 75 kWh setup.
Here’s what the performance numbers look like:
- 390 bhp & 505 Nm in AWD (dual motor)
- 0–100 km/h in 6.3 seconds
- Range: Up to 622 km (MIDC), with real-world figures touching 490–500 km
Charging options include:
- 3.3 kW wall box charger (30+ hrs for full charge)
- 7.2 kW home charger (12–15 hrs)
- 120 kW DC fast charging (0–80% in ~25 minutes; 250 km range in 15 mins)
Driving Experience: City, Highway, and Off-Road
Behind the wheel, the Harrier EV feels instantly responsive – especially in Boost mode, which unleashes its full power. In daily driving conditions, it delivers silent, smooth, and effortless performance. Steering is light in Eco and City modes, but firms up nicely in Sport and Boost modes for highway stability.
Ride comfort is where the Harrier EV excels. It glides over potholes and uneven roads with remarkable composure, although some body roll is expected given its SUV size. For off-road lovers, the AWD version truly shines – with selectable terrain modes for Mud, Snow, Rock Crawl, and even a Custom mode to tailor drivetrain responses.
Braking is sharp with all-round disc brakes and regen modes. The only minor issue is the soft initial brake pedal feel, which takes a bit of getting used to.
Final Verdict: Is the Harrier EV Worth It?
Final thoughts on (Tata Harrier EV Review)- With the Harrier EV, Tata Motors has finally brought AWD tech back to its SUV lineup – and combined it with all the features and range you’d expect in a premium EV. It offers one of the most feature-rich cabins in the segment, a real-world usable electric range, and strong highway and off-road performance.
Yes, the ₹30.3 lakh price tag for the AWD variant is steep, but considering the performance, equipment, and presence it brings, the Harrier EV feels well worth the premium. The only lingering question is long-term reliability – but if Tata has nailed the quality this time, this could easily become the go-to electric SUV for Indian buyers.
