Tata Motors made a splash at the launch of the much-awaited Sierra EV by revealing the 0-100 kmph acceleration time of its latest electric SUV. The Sierra EV QWD – Tata-speak for dual-motor – will do 0-100 kmph in a mere 5.8 seconds. This makes it the first car from an Indian carmaker to duck the 6-second barrier, besting the Tata Harrier EV's acceleration time by a full half second (6.3 seconds). The Sierra EV QWD is equipped with a 138 bhp motor at the front, and a 235 bhp motor at the rear. Tata is yet to confirm the final combined output for this variant, and there are no performance figures yet for the single-motor variants.

Tata Sierra EV: Battery, range and charging
The Tata Sierra EV will be available with two battery options – 63 kWh and 75 kWh – with both using lithium ferro-phosphate (LFP) cells. Both batteries come with a lifetime warranty. Tata says the real-world range of the 63 kWh variant will be up to 460 kilometres, and up to 530 kilometres for the 75 kWh variant.
Customers will be able to use both 3.3 kW as well as 7.2 kW chargers for regular charging, and the Sierra EV can accept up to 120 kW of peak DC fast charging at a speed of 1.6C. This, claims Tata, is sufficient to provide a 20-80 per cent top-up in less than 30 minutes.

Prices for the Sierra EV range from Rs 18.79 lakh to Rs 26 lakh (ex-showroom), and opting for a 7.2 kW AC home charger will add another Rs 49,000 to the price.
