Tata Harrier EV Becomes One of India’s Best-Selling EVs, But When Will It Arrive in Nepal?

The flagship EV of Tata Motors, i.e., the Tata Harrier EV, has been climbing the sales chart in India due to its electric performance, advanced tech, and comfort. So when will we see it in Nepal? Well, frankly, we do not know the exact timeline. But on an optimistic note, the Harrier EV might be launched in Nepal by 2026 if everything goes right.

Tata rolled out the electric version of one of its most recognizable ICE SUVs, the Harrier, in mid-2025. From the moment it arrived, the Harrier EV felt different from Tata’s earlier electric efforts. It retained the tough, upright SUV proportions that made the ICE Harrier popular, but layered them with a cleaner, more futuristic design.

Moreover, the strong tech package and features are also a highlight on the Harrier EV, and it no longer feels outgunned by Chinese competitors. The Harrier EV also introduced something Tata EVs have often missed: a convincing sense of premium electric travel.

The Harrier EV also showcases the true depth of Tata’s acti.ev platform. While it previously underpinned models like the Punch EV, Nexon K3.ev, and Curvv.ev, the Harrier EV tests it at a far larger scale. In doing so, it proves the platform’s real capability.

With that context, expectations naturally shift to Nepal. Sipradi Trading, Tata’s authorized distributor, now holds the responsibility of translating this progress into the local market. At the moment, Tata Nepal’s flagship EV is the Curvv.ev, a model that looks bold on paper and design but has struggled to resonate emotionally.

The Harrier EV, by contrast, arrives with familiarity, visual authority, and a sense of maturity. We will see it in great detail in this article, starting with the Harrier EV price in Nepal.

What is the Price of Tata Harrier EV in Nepal?

Tata Harrier EV price in Nepal could land around Rs. 70 Lakhs, but for now, that figure remains purely speculative. Tata has not shared any concrete updates regarding the Harrier EV’s Nepal launch, which makes the official pricing a bit of a guessing game. For context, the Harrier EV starts at INRs 21.49 Lakhs in India.

Speaking of India, the Harrier EV has already made a confident entry with over 5,000-unit sales, which clearly suggests that Indian buyers have warmed up to Tata’s electric flagship faster than expected. What makes the package even more appealing is the availability of both rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive variants. Tata also does not shy away from talking up its performance credentials.

As for the launch timeline, Tata officials have made it clear that the Harrier EV is not an immediate priority for Nepal. The brand currently has several ICE products lined up, which seem to be taking precedence. Even so, reading between the lines, a 2026 launch window feels more likely than not.

We will continue to update this article as soon as new information surfaces, so stay tuned. And since Nepal-specific specifications remain uncertain for now, it makes sense to look at the Harrier EV in its home-market form. With that in mind, here are the key specifications of the Tata Harrier EV for 2026.

Tata Harrier EV Overview

Exterior

The Tata Harrier EV retains much of its design DNA from the ICE Harrier while integrating modern EV-specific styling elements that focus heavily on optimizing the aerodynamic performance. It adheres to Tata’s “Delete Impossible” philosophy, which basically means to celebrate the rugged SUV traits with the electric efficiency.

At the front, it features a sleek, blanked-off grille complemented by a redesigned bumper that houses vertical chrome slats, an element now familiar across Tata’s acti.ev-based models. Enhancing its appeal, the front lighting setup includes full-width LED DRLs and vertically stacked LED Bi-Projector Headlights.

A satin silver skid plate anchors the lower bumper and is paired with a wide air dam and vertical slats that are meant to project its toughness. The culmination of all these elements gives the Harrier.ev an excellent road presence.

Along the sides, the Harrier EV rides on 19-inch turbine-blade like Alloy Wheels designed for improved aerodynamics. Tata’s signature high ground clearance also remains evident and physically measures over 200 mm. While it exudes a proper SUV stance from the side, the wheelbase, however, sits at a modest 2741 mm, which coincidentally is the same as that of the ICE Harrier.

At the rear, the full-width lightbar and sharp LED Tail Lamp give a pretty good visual appeal. The rear window is compact and comes with a wiper, which, if you know, is a very practical thing.

The boot space can be accessed via the powered tailgate, and while the boot door gives an expectation for a big storage area, it is rather a decent space inside than a spacious one. Measuring at 502 liters (which is expandable up to 1120 liters), is quite low compared to what other competitors offer. Rear design finishes off with hefty claddings and a thick skid plate on the bumper that is meant to add to its rugged nature.

The exterior comes in several color options, including Nainital Nocturne, Pure Grey, Pristine White, and Empowered Oxide.

Interior

Inside the cabin, the Harrier EV largely mirrors its ICE counterpart but introduces subtle EV-centric enhancements. Right off the bat, the interior is quite spacious and is tech-laden.

The interior is wrapped in leatherette upholstery with a refined Dual-Tone Color scheme for that upmarket feel, and it truly feels premium as well. Both front seats come with Power Adjustment, Ventilation, and Heating functions, while the rear seats include “Boss Mode” for rear passenger comfort.

The dashboard features a large 14.5-inch QLED Touchscreen Infotainment System sourced from Samsung, paired with a 10.25-inch Digital Instrument Cluster. This setup, now common across Tata’s new EVs, offers a clean, user-friendly interface. However, the glossy finish on the centered steering wheel may be prone to scratches over time.

There have been reports of software glitches in early units and some Ergonomical annoyance due to accidentally pressing the wrong touch buttons as the car heavily relies on them instead of physical buttons.

Lastly, the features include a Cooled Glove Box, fast-charging USB ports at the front and rear, a Wireless Phone Charger, Dual Zone AC, a Panoramic Sunroof, a Digital IRVM, and a premium 10-speaker JBL Sound System.

Performance

The Harrier EV comes in two battery pack options: a 65 kWh and a 75 kWh variant. The electric SUV offers two distinct powertrain layouts, featuring both Rear-Wheel Drive (RWD) and All-Wheel Drive (AWD) configurations. Impressively, the Harrier EV will become the first AWD electric vehicle from an Indian automotive manufacturer.

The 65 kWh battery pack variant comes equipped with a 175 kW Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor that delivers a max power of 238 PS and a max torque of 315 Nm. This particular option is available only in the rear wheel drive setup and is good for a C75 claimed range of 420 – 445 km.

In contrast, the 75 kWh variant is available in both RWD and AWD versions. The RWD model uses the same 175 kW motor as the smaller battery variant. Under the C75 test cycle, this model offers a certified range of 480 km to 505 km, while the MIDC test claims an optimistic range of 627 km.

And, the AWD variant with the 75 kWh battery pack features a Dual-Motor setup. It retains the 175 kW motor at the rear and adds a 115 kW motor at the front, resulting in a combined output of 317 PS and an impressive 504 Nm of max torque. According to the C75 test, this particular variant can do anywhere between 460 – 490 km, but then again, the MIDC test gives a more unbelievable figure of 622 km.

Charging the 65 kWh battery pack from 0 to 100% using a 7.2 kW AC charger takes approximately 10 hours. In comparison, the larger 75 kWh battery pack requires around 11 hours and 30 minutes to reach a full charge using the same charger. 

Moreover, both the 65 kWh battery variant and the 75 kWh battery variant can be charged from 20% to 80% in around 25 minutes, but while the former supports only 100 kW of DC charging, the latter can support up to 125 kW.

Beyond its powertrain options, the Harrier EV offers advanced driving dynamics with six terrain modes: Normal, Snow/Grass, Mud-Ruts, Sand, Rock Crawl, and Custom. Moreover, there are four levels of regenerative braking and a dedicated Drift mode.

The Harrier EV clearly showcases its off-road capabilities, but its on-road performance is equally impressive. The All-Wheel-Drive variant sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.3 seconds, delivering strong acceleration right from the start.

While the performance surely looks exciting, the excitement needs a small reality check when viewed through a Nepali lens. Historically, Nepal-bound EVs tend to arrive with toned-down specifications, and the Harrier EV might not escape that trend.

There is a strong possibility that motor output could be limited to under the 100 kW mark. On top of that, the much-talked-about AWD variant may never make it across the border. None of this is confirmed, of course, but past patterns suggest we should manage expectations while still hoping Tata surprises us.

Additional Details

McPherson Strut and Multi-link suspension with Frequency-Dependent Damper setup handles the suspension duties.

The dimensions are 4607 mm in length, 2132 mm in width, and 1740 mm in height. And, the wheelbase is 2741 mm.

Ground clearance of the Harrier EV is approximately 205 mm. And, the kerb weight is estimated to be 2235 kg and 2335 kg, depending on the variant. The boot space is 502-liter, along with a 67-liter frunk space.

Tata Harrier EV Price in Nepal and Availability

Tata Harrier EV price in Nepal is not known as of yet. We do anticipate it to be anywhere around Rs. 70 Lakhs, but it will depend on the number of variants, Tata Nepal’s pricing strategy, and a hundred other things.

Also, we are not sure about when the Harrier EV will launch in Nepal. There are some signs that it might come to Nepal in 2026, but the exact time can’t be said for certain as of now. Eventually, more information on the specs, pricing, and variants is bound to be released, so stay tuned for any further updates.

Rivals

The Tata Harrier EV is set to rival the Mahindra XEV 9e in a head-to-head battle between two new-generation Indian electric SUVs. Both models reflect the growing maturity of electric vehicle development within their respective companies. Tata and Mahindra have invested years into EV research and development, and the results are finally taking shape in the form of these promising products.

When it comes to performance, the Harrier EV holds a clear advantage with its All-Wheel-Drive capability, which is something the XEV 9e lacks entirely. This, combined with six dedicated terrain modes, makes the Harrier EV more suitable for light off-roading and adventurous drives.

On the technology front, the Harrier EV boasts a larger and more responsive 14.5-inch Infotainment Screen with a Samsung QLED panel. In comparison, the XEV 9e comes with a slightly smaller 12.3-inch unit, but makes up for it with a triple-screen layout that offers a detailed and highly informative driving interface. While Tata focuses on visual quality, Mahindra emphasizes practicality and driver-oriented design.

The Harrier EV also includes several modern conveniences such as a Digital IRVM that streams live footage from the rear camera, a Summon Mode for tight-space maneuvering, and a Transparent Mode that visually eliminates the car from the camera feed for a better view of the surroundings.

Given these features, along with its established Harrier legacy, the Harrier EV currently appears to be the more attractive option. However, the Mahindra XEV 9e deserves recognition for its bold, futuristic design and the extensive effort Mahindra put into building it from scratch. Unlike Tata, which could leverage the existing Harrier platform, Mahindra designed the XEV 9e entirely from the ground up, which is a remarkable achievement in itself.

Although both vehicles are expected to launch with similar starting prices in India, complete pricing and specification details for the Harrier EV are still forthcoming. As such, it’s too early to deliver a final judgment. Nonetheless, a compelling rivalry between these two flagship EVs is on the horizon, and it will be exciting to see how things unfold as more information becomes available.
