Tata Sierra EV: Concept-Like Styling


The leaked patent drawings showcase a sleek and modern design, blending the classic appeal of the original Sierra with futuristic elements that define the electric era. The front end will have a high-set bonnet with a closed grille. Much like recent introductions, the Sierra gets vertically-split headlamps. It further boasts a glasshouse area like the concept, with roof rails on the top. The controversial 3-door body style won’t be put to use, but the Sierra will be launched with a 5-door layout. The SUV could possibly ride on large 19-inch wheels.



Tata Sierra EV: Features From Future?


As exterior styling takes a futuristic approach, the interior follows its footsteps. The dashboard layout is expected to carry minimalistic theme. The design will be carried over from the concept model showcased at the Auto Expo this year. In all likelihood, there will be a large touchscreen panel on the dashboard’s centre, along with an all-digital instrument cluster. Yes! The Sierra will be loaded to the gills. The feature list could include powered and ventilated front seats, premium sound system, dual-zone climate control, wireless charger, cooled glovebox, ADAS, up to 7 airbags, and more.

Interestingly, the Sierra EV could become the first car in Tata Motor’s stable to get an AWD layout with an electric powertrain. The company’s ICE line-up too misses out on any AWD offerings, period.
