Features Tata Harrier EV Gets Over The Regular ICE Harrier

Tata Harrier EV is finally launched at Rs. 21.49 lakhs ex-showroom in India, and while it challenges the Mahindra's Born electrics, which have been selling like hot cakes, it outshines even its own sibling, out of which it grows. In this section, we take a look at the features that the Tata Harrier EV offers over the ICE Harrier.

1. Dual Motor AWD

Taking the edge over the Tata Harrier ICE is the Tata Harrier EV iteration that now uses a dual motor to make the Tata Harrier EV and AWD vehicle, making it capable of treading treacherous roads, something that has also been highly advertised in its latest commercial. This also fills the void where the Harrier/Safari monikers were not given this attribute.

2. Auto Park

Remember when the Ford Endeavour was last active in India, and how it just parked itself, and it was something to flaunt to your friends. Well, the Tata Harrier EV does just that, and it is also the first Tata ever to offer this very handy maneuver. Simply engage the auto park feature, and you don't have to do any braking, acceleration, or anything for that matter, and watch the SUV park itself. Pretty cool to flaunt and a nice to have addition!

3. Summon Mode

You've parked the car and then went off to do the chores or your office, and when you come back, there's the Tata Harrier EV now in a very tight spot with cars parked at a hairline distance. You can then use the summon mode to move the Harrier EV forward and backward in a straight line using the key fob. While this is also Tata's first, it not only parks for you, but it also takes you out of the tight spots as well.

4. Bigger Infotainment Screen- 14.5 Inch vs 12.3

The infotainment system on the EV Harrier is also a bigger Samsung QLED 14.5-inch unit that dwarfs the 12.3-inch display of the ICE Harrier. It is not only sharper in quality, but offers a more intuitive and expansive user experience.

5. Digital IRVM With Dashcam

The Harrier EV takes a more modern take on the IRVM, which is now not only digital but also doubles up as a dashcam. Not just this, it doubles up as a camera screen for the rear unit, projecting the traffic coming from behind.

6. Terrain Modes

The Harrier EV takes a significant leap forward in off-road capability with an upgraded multi-terrain mode system, offering six distinct driving modes: Normal, Mud/Ruts, Rock Crawl, Sand, Snow/Grass, and a Custom mode tailored to the driver's preferences. In comparison, the Harrier ICE variant comes with only three basic modes, Normal, Rough, and Wet, highlighting the EV's enhanced versatility across a wider range of terrains.

7. Transparent Mode: Beyond The 360s

The Tata Harrier EV enhances its 360-degree camera system with a Transparent Mode, allowing drivers to see not just the surroundings, but also what lies beneath the bonnet. This added visibility is especially useful during off-roading, helping to identify and avoid large obstacles directly in the vehicle's path. While the regular Harrier also features a 360-degree camera, it lacks this advanced Transparent Mode, giving the EV a clear advantage in challenging driving conditions.

8. Electric Boss Mode

Both the Harrier EV and the diesel Harrier offer power-adjustable front seats, but the EV takes it a step further with an exclusive 'Boss Mode'. This feature allows the rear passenger to push the front passenger seat forward at the press of a button, providing extra legroom and added comfort, something the diesel variant doesn't offer.
