Tata Motors has taken the wraps off from the all-new Sierra EV, reviving one of India's most iconic SUV nameplates in a fully electric form. The electric SUV is largely similar to its ICE counterpart, apart from some EV-specific touches that includes body-coloured grille, a redesigned front bumper, and a Sierra.EV badge on the tailgate. The Sierra EV is offered in six variants that includes Pure, Pure S, Adventure, Empowered, Empowered A, and Empowered A AWD spread across two battery options. Let’s check the variant-wise  features on this electric SUV and stick around till the end where we share our recommendation on which variant makes the most sense for you.

Tata Sierra EV: Variant and Battery Configuration

The Tata Sierra has two battery pack options, the smaller 63kWh and bigger 75kWh pack. These aren't exclusive to specific trims instead there are Adventure and Empowered variants that offer a choice of both. Below is how the batteries map across the lineup.

Pure

Price: 18.79 lakh (ex-showroom)
Powertrain: 63kWh battery, single rear PMSM motor, 238PS/315Nm, RWD
Certified Range: 535km (440-460km real-world)

The Pure is the entry point into the Sierra EV lineup. Despite being the base trim, it doesn't feel stripped down, Tata has packed in a generous list of safety and convenience features. The Pure trim is available in three colours which include Coorg Clouds, Pure Grey, and Pristine White. Below is what you get as standard.

Pure S

Price: 19.99 lakh(ex-showroom)
Powertrain/Range: Similar to the Pure trim

The Pure S steps up from the base Pure trim with some meaningful additions in tech and convenience. However, the colour option remains the same as the pure. 

Adventure

Price: 20.99(63)/22.19 (75)lakh(ex-showroom)
Powertrain:
63kWh- (238PS/315Nm, RWD)
75kWh- (209PS/315Nm, RWD)

The Adventure trim is where the Sierra EV's cabin experience takes a serious leap forward, adding features that genuinely elevate the everyday driving experience. More importantly, this is also the first variant to offer both the larger 75kWh battery option and smaller 63kWh as well. Along with that colour options also expand to five with the addition of Andaman Adventure and Bengal Rouge. 

Empowered

Price: 22.79(63)/23.79 (75) Lakh (ex-showroom)
Powertrain:
63kWh (238PS/315Nm, RWD)
75kWh (209PS/315Nm, RWD)

The Empowered is the trim where Sierra EV gets truly premium, with the noticeable addition being the Horizon View triple-screen cockpit setup that completely transforms the feel of the cabin. Much like the Adventure trim, the Empowered also gives you the flexibility to choose between both battery packs, the 63kWh and the larger 75kWh. Moreover, the colour count also grows to six offering the addition of Rishikesh Rapids.

Empowered A

Price: 24.79 Lakh (ex-showroom)
Powertrain: 75kWh, 209PS/315Nm, RWD

The Empowered A trim is where Tata has gone all-in in terms of safety and driver assistance. Starting from this variant you get Level 2+ ADAS with 22 key features which is a segment-leading count. Additionally, it also steps up to larger 19-inch wheels and gets the full seven-colour palette, that also includes the exclusive Nainital Nocturne.

Empowered A AWD

Price: 25.99 Lakh (ex-showroom)
Powertrain: 75kWh QWD Dual Motor — Front: 140PS/103kW Induction Motor, Rear: 209PS/154kW PMSM, Combined 504Nm torque 

The Empowered A AWD is the range-topping flagship of the Sierra EV lineup and the variant Tata put through its paces in Saudi Arabia to prove the car's off-road capabilities. Moreover, It is the only variant to get genuine all-wheel drive or in brands word Quad-Wheel Drive (QWD), unlocking the full suite of six terrain modes and a class-leading gradeability of 52%, making it the most capable configuration in the entire Sierra EV range.

91Wheels Recommendation

If you are looking for a no-fuss daily driver without stretching the budget, the Pure S makes the most sense as it adds the sunroof, connected car tech, and a strong safety net over the base Pure. The Pure S commands a premium of Rs 1.20 lakh (ex-showroom) over the base Pure, but the addition of a panoramic sunroof, frunk storage, bi-directional charging, and more safety features makes that extra spend feel well justified.

Now the buyers who want more cabin tech and better range should look at the Adventure or Empowered trims, both of which can be had with either battery pack depending on whether range or affordability matters more. Lastly, for those who want the Sierra EV at its absolute best with top-tier safety tech, ADAS, and genuine off-road capability the Empowered A AWD is the obvious choice.  It has the largest battery, dual-motor AWD, and the most comprehensive feature list in the lineup.
