Tata Motors is having a great run in the Indian car market. In monthly sales, the brand has been ahead of its competitors.

Design – Best SUV Under Rs 20 Lakh

One of the reasons why you should consider the new Sierra is the design. Now, we don’t particularly recommend a car based on the design, but we cannot deny the fact that it is one of the best-looking SUVs in the market. Unlike other SUVs, Tata Motors approached the old-school boxy design for the new-age SUV. This not only enhances the road presence of the Sierra but has also helped the brand with space management. We will talk more about space in detail later!

Coming back to the design, elements like connected DRLs, sleek LED headlamps, and a tall stance make the Sierra stand out from the crowd. But the most important design highlight, however, is the side profile. It is when you can see the resemblance of the new Sierra to the old model. Tata Motors has done a great job to give the new model the popular wrapped window glass effect.

Interior & Features

It is not just the Sierra’s exterior that will wow you. Hop inside, and you will appreciate the overall interior design and quality. Apart from the elements like a 4-spoke steering wheel, JLR-inspired gear selector & the touch-based HVAC controls, the dashboard design is all new. What adds to the luxury quotient is the quality. The dashboard of the Sierra gets soft-touch materials all around & the plastic touches do feel of a higher grade. Also, the seats themselves are super comfortable and supportive – be it on the front or the rear. 

Now, to make your drives memorable & exciting, the design is not the only factor you want. And that’s where the Sierra shines! To keep you comfortable & entertained, Tata Motors has loaded the Sierra with some exclusive features. Talking of which, the SUV gets – a triple screen layout (10.25-inch touchscreen system, a 12.3-inch touchscreen system, a 12.3-inch co-driver touch display), dual-zone automatic climate control, powered driver seat with memory function, ventilated front seats, extendable thigh support for front seats, reclining rear seats, rear window sunshades, a massive panoramic sunroof, and a lot more!

Space – Best SUV Under Rs 20 Lakh

Tata Motors has done a commendable job with the space management in the Tata Sierra. The SUV has plenty of storage spaces to keep your knick-knacks, mobile phones, and coffee cups! But what about the passengers? Well, the Sierra can comfortably accommodate five full-size adults. The Sierra is the tallest, widest, and has the longest wheelbase in the segment. Its height & width ensure the passengers have sufficient headroom & shoulder room. At the same time, the long wheelbase provides acres of knee room, allowing the rear passengers to stretch their legs on the reclining seats and enjoy the equally impressive ride quality.

Ride Quality

While the passengers are least interested in which engine powers the Sierra, what will matter most to them is the ride quality. In fact, the NVH levels are so good that the passengers will hardly realise if it’s a diesel engine or a petrol! And this is another factor where Sierra clearly shines. Tata SUVs are always known for their superior ride quality & the Sierra is no less!

But what makes the Sierra an even better product is that it comes equipped with Frequency Dependent Dampers. Ignore the technicalities of the terms – just remember that you will not feel some of the roughest undulations inside the cabin. Be it on the slower speeds or while cruising on the highway – the SUV stays stable & does not allow rough roads to trouble the passengers.

Engine Options – Best SUV Under Rs 20 Lakh

What will confuse the buyer of Sierra is the engine options. It offers three engine options, and all three have excellent refinement & drivability, so small test runs may not help you decide your favourite engine. Talking of the engine options, the Sierra gets – a 1.5-litre NA petrol engine (104bhp & 145Nm), a 1.5-litre TGDi engine (158bhp & 255Nm) and a 1.5-litre Diesel engine (116bhp & 280Nm).

Interestingly, all three engine options are available with automatic gearbox options! The NA petrol comes with an option for a DCA gearbox, while the other two come with torque converter automatic gearbox options. So no matter which engine you choose, the wide array of gearbox options will keep your ride relaxed!

Safety

Now, all the mentioned factors are something that you will want to experience again and again. However, it is the safety that you will never want to test in your car, right? That said, even if a situation arises, the Sierra will take all the damage while ensuring the passengers walk out safely! The Sierra is yet to be crash tested; however, the brand – Tata Motors, keeps safety as a priority, which is something the world knows! Every Tata SUV on sale today has already scored 5-stars in either Global NCAP or Bharat NCAP or both.

And the same can be said for the Sierra. In fact, to showcase the Sierra’s build quality, the brand released a video of a head-on crash between two Sierras in its in-house crash test facility. Rest, it gets all the necessary safety features like – an electronic parking brake, ISOFIX child seat mounts, all wheel disc brakes, 6 Airbags, 360-degree camera, Level 2+ ADAS and a lot more!
