Currently, Tata is India’s top producer of electric vehicles. They presently offer three models, but they intend to increase it, the Harrier Ev being a prime example. Some of the new products being developed by Tata’s electric vehicle division are anticipated to hit the market in the coming months. Tata presented the world with the Harrier EV concept this year at the Auto Expo. As evidenced by the recent discovery of a Tata Harrier EV test mule in Pune, the factory has already begun work on this.
The future Tata Harrier EV was observed on the road on one of our most recent media drives to Pune, where the video was shot. The SUV was entirely covered in camouflage. The test mule was identical in size and appearance to the standard Harrier.
Tata Harrier EV Features
You would see that the front grille has been altered if you paid close attention to the front. The Harrier EV’s front grille will resemble that of the facelifted Harrier, which will hit the market at the beginning of next year. Similar to the Nexon and Nexon EV, there will be a few small visual variations.
To lessen drag, the front grille would be totally closed. On the upper and lower portions of the grille, it appears as though Tata is providing some sort of decoration. Since this is not the final product, the final design may be altered. The headlamp design will also be changed, and the front bumper has a powerful, edgy appearance. The ADAS camera is visible on the front windshield, while the front LED DRLs are fully obscured. This could imply that Tata will offer an LED strip that spans the width of the vehicle similar to the Nexon EV.
Additionally different from the current ICE version are the alloy wheel designs. It appears that Tata will include ADAS technologies in the Harrier electric model. The Harrier Red Dark Edition with ADAS capabilities was unveiled by Tata earlier this year. Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), forward collision alert, lane departure warning, lane change assist, and traffic sign recognition are some of the features that come with the automobile. It appears that all of these functions will also be available for the Harrier EV. The test mule also exhibits evidence of the blind spot detection technology in operation. When an object is detected in the ORVM’s blind spot, an orange light begins to flicker.
Although the SUV appears identical from the rear, Tata will also make significant changes. Dynamic turn indicators will be one of the changes to the tail lamps. If it has a connecting LED bar in the rear, it won’t surprise us. Although the Harrier EV’s interior was difficult for us to photograph adequately, it is clear that the Harrier facelift and EV will likely receive a new infotainment system and instrument panel. It’s also expected that extras like a 360-degree camera, panoramic sunroof, and ventilated seats will be available. The planned Harrier EV’s powertrain, battery, and range specifications have not yet been made public.
