With large battery packs (65 or 75 kWh), good range claims, dual-motor AWD versions and a huge tech and feature list, it aims to set new benchmarks in the Indian mainstream premium EV segment. At the same time, it competes with ICE SUVs as well as other EVs, so it has to deliver on both performance and usability.

Cruising Down The History
The Harrier EV was officially launched in India in June 2025. It is built on Tata’s new dedicated EV architecture (acti.ev+) rather than just converting an ICE model. It marks Tata’s entry into more premium EV SUV territory, with features like AWD and large battery packs. Over time, Tata has added special editions (like Stealth) and expanded variant/feature range.

Buy Or Bye Bye!
If you’re looking for a feature-rich electric SUV in India with good range, strong tech, and the capability to handle more than just city commuting (thanks to AWD, terrain modes), the Harrier EV is a very compelling proposition. The combination of battery size, performance and tech is rare in this segment.
However — if your primary use is short urban trips, or you are very budget-conscious, you might find some of the lesser trims sufficient or even consider waiting for further updates/infrastructure maturity. Also, because it’s fairly new and high on tech, make sure local service and charging infrastructure are acceptable in your region.
Verdict: Yes — definitely worth serious consideration if your budget allows and you want an EV that can “do more” than city commuting. But check trim/variant carefully, real‐world range, charging setup at your location, and service ecosystem before committing.
