Tata Harrier.ev AWD To Be Offered In Lower Variant!

The Tata Harrier.ev has become quite popular since its launch, thanks to its enthralling performance and AWD capabilities. However, the AWD option is only available in the top trim, making it inaccessible to buyers on a tighter budget. So, Tata has decided to offer QWD in lower variants to make it more attainable for more buyers. In a recent interview with AutoCar India, the Chief Commercial Officer at Tata stated that 30% of the Harrier.ev’s sales were coming from the QWD variant. Tata was initially expecting that the AWD version would account for 20% of the Harrier.ev’s sales.

In this interview, the CCO of Tata revealed that it will offer QWD in lower variants of the Harrier.ev. So in the near future, we can expect to see QWD in lower variants. The Harrier.ev QWD is only offered with the 75kWh battery pack. The 75kWh battery pack is available in 2 variants: Fearless and Empowered. So, we expect Tata to offer QWD in the Fearless variant, making it more accessible and affordable. Similar to Mahindra’s BEVs, Tata could offer the larger battery pack in even lower variants like Adventure S, allowing a variety of options to choose from.
