Tata Motors is changing the game with its new Harrier EV. It’s not just another electric SUV. This time, Tata has packed it with a bunch of new features. Some of these are not only first for Tata but are also segment-first in India. Let’s take a closer look at these fresh additions that make the Harrier EV truly special.
540-Degree Camera With Transparent View Mode
Most SUVs today offer a 360-degree camera. But the Harrier EV takes it further. It now comes with a 540-degree camera system. This includes an extra camera that shows what’s underneath the car. When Transparent View Mode is turned on, it helps drivers see obstacles like big stones or potholes that usually stay hidden. This is especially useful while off-roading or driving through uneven city roads.
First Tata Car With Dual-Motor All-Wheel Drive
The Harrier EV is the first Tata car to feature an all-wheel drive with two electric motors. One motor is placed on the front axle and the other on the rear. Together, they produce a powerful 504 Nm of torque. The front motor gives 158 PS, and the rear motor adds 238 PS. When you press Boost Mode, the Harrier EV can go from 0 to 100 kmph in just 6.3 seconds. That’s serious performance for an SUV of its size.
Six Terrain Modes for Every Kind of Road
The regular Harrier has three modes: Normal, Rough, and Wet. But the Harrier EV offers six. These are Normal, Mud Ruts, Rock Crawl, Sand, Snow/Grass, and Custom mode. Each mode changes how the SUV reacts to different terrains. It tweaks throttle response, power delivery, and traction control to make sure you stay in control no matter where you are.
Biggest Infotainment Screen in Any Tata Car
The Harrier EV also brings in a new infotainment system. And it’s big. The screen measures 14.5 inches, making it the largest display ever offered in a Tata car. It’s a Neo QLED panel by Samsung, which gives very sharp visuals and better brightness. This is a major upgrade over the 12.3-inch display in the regular Harrier.
Digital IRVM With Built-in Dashcam
One of the coolest additions is the digital IRVM. There’s a camera mounted on the shark fin antenna that shows live footage behind the vehicle. This footage is displayed on the digital rearview mirror. But it’s not just a display. It also records the feed and works like a dashcam, giving extra safety during long drives.
Automatic Parking Assist for Easy City Use
Another premium feature in the Harrier EV is auto-park assist. With this feature, the SUV can park itself. You don’t have to touch the steering or throttle. It finds a suitable parking spot and does the rest. It’s the kind of feature we’ve seen in expensive luxury cars and now Tata is bringing it to their electric SUV.
Summon Mode to Move Car Without Sitting Inside
This one is completely new for Tata cars. The Harrier EV now comes with Summon Mode. You can move the car forward or backward using just the key fob. It’s perfect for tight parking spaces where opening the door is tough. This feature adds a level of convenience that’s usually seen in high-end electric cars.
With these new features, the Harrier EV is setting a new benchmark in the electric SUV segment. Tata Motors is clearly stepping up its game with technology, comfort, and innovation in one bold package.
