Tata has brought back the Sierra name in its electric guise, launching the Sierra EV in India. Bookings for the electric SUV are now open, and deliveries are set to begin on 15 July 2026. Priced from ₹18.79 lakh (ex-showroom, without charger), the new SUV aims to combine the appeal of the original Sierra with an electric powertrain, long range and a feature list that pushes it into the premium end of the mid-size SUV space. Here are five things you should know about the new electric SUV:
1) Launch price and timing
The Sierra.ev enters the market at an introductory starting price of ₹18.79 lakh (ex-showroom). Tata.ev says deliveries will start from 15 July 2026, while bookings begin immediately.

The Sierra.ev will be sold in seven colour options, including Pristine White, Pure Grey, Coorg Clouds, Bengal Rouge, Andaman Adventure, Rishikesh Rapids and Nainital Nocturne. Tata says the SUV is aimed at buyers who want design, performance and practicality in one package as EV adoption continues to grow in India.
Speaking at the launch, Shailesh Chandra, MD & CEO of Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd., said, “The mid-SUV segment sits at the heart of India’s SUV market, shaped by a new generation of customers who see their vehicle as a reflection of their lifestyle, ambitions and identity. As EVs move firmly into the mainstream, desirability will be the defining catalyst for adoption. The Sierra.ev is designed to lead that shift.”
