Tata Motors has made great strides with Tata Harrier EV as the electric SUV trend progresses upward. While the Tata Harrier EV is not the only electric SUV, priced at ₹21.49 lakh (ex-showroom), it is largely considered to be the most suitable for environmentally conscious individuals who want luxury, comfort and the latest technology. Developing such an innovative technology did not come easily, but Tata Motors was able to do it through its own development on several aspects including technology, design and overall performance. The new Tata Harrier EV represents a step forward in luxury electric vehicles designed for Indian roads and Indian sensibilities as it offers an emissions-free mode of transportation without having to compromise on power, driving dynamics or range for driving while using this vehicle.
