Tata working on 6 new electric cars!
Tata Motors has gained a lot of ground in the EV segment. It has gotten a clear head start in this space due to its successful product planning. However, Tata knows that it can’t let its guard down. Other manufacturers like Mahindra, Hyundai & Citroen are also planning an onslaught with their new electric cars. So what is Tata’s plan moving forward? The brand already has three electric cars and plans to launch as many as six new cars by 2027. In today’s article, let’s talk about these six new Tata electric cars.
Already launched
Before seeing new electric products, let’s discuss Tata’s existing lineup. Tata’s first electric product in the EV segment was Nexon EV, followed by the Tigor EV. The Nexon EV is the best-selling EV in India, clearly highlighting its popularity. Earlier this year, Tata launched the Nexon EV Max, a long-range version of the Nexon EV. To differentiate, Tata has changed the name of Nexon EV to Nexon EV Prime. All-in-all, the brand’s EV lineup today consists of Tata Nexon EV Prime, Nexon EV Max and Tigor EV.
The remaining six products
Now let’s talk one by one about the upcoming six products and their launch timelines.
Altroz EV
The Altroz EV could be Tata’s next product in the EV segment. Tata has already showcased the concept at various Auto Expos. So, what will this electric hatchback get? The Altroz EV could get some blue highlights & Tata’s Signature Teal Blue colour. It is expected to share its mechanicals with the Nexon EV Prime, taking into account its premium quotient. When will it be launched? It is expected to be launched sometime next year.
Tiago EV
The Tiago EV is another one the brand has showcased at various Auto Expos. When launched, the Tiago EV will be the cheapest electric car in Tata’s product portfolio. What about its specifications? It is expected to share its specifications with the Tigor EV. So it could get a 55kW electric motor paired to a 26kWh battery pack. It could also see a launch sometime next year.
Tata electric cars – Punch EV
Like other Tata ICE cars, the Punch could also get the EV treatment in the future. How, you ask? Because it is based on the ALFA-Arc platform, the same that underpins the Altroz and will also underpin the Altroz EV. The Punch EV has never been showcased, but it’s said to be in the works. What about its specifications? It could share its specifications with the Nexon EV Prime. So, it could get a 127bhp motor paired to a 30.2 kWh battery pack. It is expected to be launched sometime in 2024.
Tata electric cars – Curvv EV
The Curvv will be the first proper EV built by Tata. It will be built on the Sigma platform, a heavily modified version of the existing X4 or Alfa Architecture. Tata Motors is re-engineering the platform around the battery pack to avoid any compromises. What will it look like? Tata will try to retain as many elements as possible from the Curvv concept. So we can expect a coupe-like design. In terms of specifications, it will come with EV and ICE options. The Curvv EV is expected to be launched sometime in 2024.
Avinya EV
The Avinya will be the first ground-up EV built by Tata. It will be built on a skateboard platform with battery packs mounted on the floor. The Avinya concept shown by Tata displayed the brand’s new Pure EV design. It is quite a futuristic design with a new Tata logo. In terms of specifications, it will get range figures over 500km. The Tata Avinya is expected to see a launch sometime in 2025.
Tata electric cars – Sierra EV
Tata is also planning to revive the Sierra nameplate. At the Auto Expo of 2020, Tata surprised everyone by showcasing the Sierra EV concept. This concept had the Sierra vibe with a modern touch. Tata is yet to confirm anything regarding its launch, but some strong reports are suggesting that it is already under development. The Sierra EV is expected to be based on the ground-up EV platform. When can we expect it? The Sierra EV is expected to be launched sometime around the Avinya EV’s launch.
