Tata Sierra SUV – what to expect?

As seen in the recent spy shots, the test car is heavily covered in camouflage. However, the design silhouette is identical to the model showcased at the Bharat Mobility Expo in January. The displayed model was near production-ready and embraced the iconic rear quarter glass design from the first-gen Sierra.

The test mule also looks similar to the model shown at the Expo. Additionally, it has a typical SUV stance with a boxy outlook and off-set wheels. The alloy wheels also look different than the usual SUVs in Tata’s lineup. Moreover, the big rear quarter glass is covered so that no cabin details are leaked.

As far as the size goes, it will be equivalent to the Harrier, give or take shorter a bit. The online rumours suggest that it will be 4.3 meters in length. In terms of the competition, the Sierra will rival the Hyundai Alcazar and the upcoming Maruti Grand Vitara 7-seater. On the inside, it will feature a three-screen display and a four-spoke steering wheel along with the option of captain seats.

Under the bonnet, it will be offered with a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol and a 2.0-litre turbo-diesel engine options. Both powertrains will come mated to manual and automatic gearbox options. Tata also plans to bring an electric version of the Sierra later.

Online rumours hint that Tata is aiming to launch the Sierra ICE variants by the end of this year. The pricing will play a crucial role in its success as its design has already gathered hundreds of potential buyers at the Expo itself.

Our verdict

Tata Sierra could become a great success story as it will cater for buyers who liked the design of the first-gen Sierra. Moreover, the availability of ICE and EV powertrain options will make it reach to a wider audience bandwidth.
