The Tata Harrier EV boasts all-wheel drive, a multi-link rear suspension for improved ride quality, and advanced features like 'Summon' mode. It's expected to compete with Mahindra XEV 9e and BYD Atto 3.
The Tata Harrier EV was recently showcased in its production-ready avatar. Despite being based on its traditional ICE (internal combustion engine)-powered predecessor, the EV differs from it in a few important ways. Three advantages the Harrier EV will have over the regular Harrier are discussed in this article.
The diesel-powered Harrier does not have all-wheel drive, but the Harrier EV will. Tata has not disclosed the Harrier EV's power output, although it is anticipated to reach 500 Nm, compared to 350 Nm for the conventional Harrier with its 2-liter diesel engine. Tata claims to have a range of more than 500 kilometers.

— Aditi Raval (@aditiraval)While the normal Harrier has a torsion beam system, the Tata Harrier EV has a multi-link rear suspension. More efficient tuning of the multi-link suspension system results in improved ride quality, particularly on difficult terrain. For comparison, the rear wheels of the Jeep Compass are supported by a multi-link suspension system.

The "Summon" mode is one of the main improvements that the Harrier EV is anticipated to have over the diesel-powered model. With the key fob, the driver may control the EV's forward and backward motion without physically being inside the vehicle. The Harrier EV is also anticipated to have features like vehicle-to-load (V2L).
Graceful? Yes. Powerful? Absolutely.

It is anticipated that additional amenities from the regular Harrier, like the 12.3-inch touchscreen, 10.25-inch digital driver display, dual zone auto air conditioning, and panoramic sunroof, will be retained. Up to seven airbags, Level-2 advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS), a 360-degree camera, hill hold assistance, and a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) are anticipated to be among the safety features on board the EV.
The Harrier EV is anticipated to compete with the Mahindra XEV 9e and BYD Atto 3 and retail for around Rs 25 lakh (ex-showroom).
