Explore the future of mobility with these 7 electric cars launching in India by 2025-26, promising cutting-edge tech and impressive ranges.
Tata Motors is accelerating its dominance in India’s SUV market with a trio of premium models set to hit the roads between 2026 and 2027. Building on the success of popular models like the Nexon and Harrier, the homegrown automaker is ready to elevate its game with the much-awaited Sierra, Avinya, and Avinya X coupe-SUV.
These vehicles promise radical designs, advanced technology, and a mix of electric and internal combustion engine (ICE) options, catering to India’s growing appetite for stylish, tech-loaded SUVs. Here’s a deep dive into what makes these upcoming models so exciting and why they’re poised to capture the attention of car enthusiasts.
1. Tata Sierra
The Tata Sierra, a beloved name from the 1990s, is returning with a modern twist that’s sure to turn heads. Showcased at the 2025 Bharat Mobility Global Expo, the Sierra blends nostalgic boxy styling with contemporary flair.
Recent test sightings and a special preview in a vibrant yellow shade for dealers suggest it’s nearing production. Available in both ICE and electric variants, the Sierra is expected to offer a robust 2.0L turbo diesel engine, similar to the Harrier and Safari, alongside a new 1.5L tGDi petrol engine delivering 168 bhp and 350 Nm of torque.
The Sierra’s rugged yet refined design, paired with features like a panoramic sunroof and a digital cockpit, positions it as a premium contender against rivals like the Hyundai Tucson. Its electric version, built on Tata’s Acti.EV platform, could deliver a range exceeding 500 km, making it a versatile choice for urban and adventure-seeking buyers. For those craving off-road thrills, the Sierra EV may even include a dual-motor AWD setup, enhancing its appeal for India’s diverse terrains.
2. Tata Avinya
Tata Motors is betting big on electrification with its Avinya range, a premium electric vehicle lineup that promises to redefine luxury and performance. First showcased as a concept in 2022, the Avinya is set to debut its production version by 2027.
Built on Jaguar Land Rover’s Electrified Modular Architecture (EMA), the Avinya will offer multiple battery options, a driving range surpassing 500 km, and fast-charging capabilities. With an estimated price of Rs. 35-40 lakh, it’s poised to compete with premium EVs like the Hyundai Ioniq 5.
The Avinya’s sleek design, advanced Level 2 ADAS suite, and high-energy-density batteries make it a standout for tech-savvy buyers. Its localization of the EMA platform in India ensures competitive pricing, making premium electric mobility more accessible. For those eyeing eco-friendly luxury, the Avinya is a glimpse into Tata’s ambitious vision for sustainable driving.
3. Tata Avinya X
Stealing the spotlight at the 2025 Bharat Mobility Global Expo, the Avinya X coupe-SUV concept (codenamed P4) brings a sporty edge to Tata’s lineup. Expected to launch by late 2027, this model combines a rakish coupe silhouette with the practicality of an SUV. Like its Avinya sibling, it leverages the EMA platform, promising a range over 500 km, fast charging, and cutting-edge features like a 360-degree camera and connected car tech.
The Avinya X’s bold styling and premium positioning make it a direct rival to upcoming coupe-SUVs from brands like Hyundai and Kia. Its focus on performance and aesthetics appeals to younger buyers seeking a blend of style and substance. With Tata’s knack for delivering value, the Avinya X could set a new benchmark in the premium SUV segment.
Why These SUVs Are a Big Deal
Tata’s upcoming SUVs are more than just new models; they reflect India’s evolving automotive landscape. The Sierra’s revival taps into nostalgia while offering modern versatility, appealing to both traditional buyers and EV enthusiasts. The Avinya range, with its futuristic tech and premium pricing, signals Tata’s ambition to compete in the luxury EV space. By offering a mix of ICE and electric powertrains, Tata ensures these vehicles cater to diverse preferences, from city commuters to highway cruisers.
