Some cars impress with their performance. Others stand out for their comfort, technology or practicality. The truly exceptional ones manage to bring all of these qualities together without feeling compromised. After spending a day with the Tata Sierra.ev on city roads, highways, a test track and a demanding off-road course around Coimbatore, I came away convinced that this is exactly what Tata has achieved. The Sierra.ev is not just another electric SUV. It is one of the most complete vehicles the company has ever built.Our test car was the flagship 75 kWh variant, equipped with a dual-motor Quad Wheel Drive system that uses a 234 bhp motor at the rear and a 138 bhp motor at the front producing a combined torque of 504 Nm. For buyers who do not need the additional performance or all-wheel drive capability, Tata also offers a 63 kWh version with a single rear-mounted motor. On paper, the larger battery promises a 665 km MIDC range. But the figures only tell part of the story. What truly stands out is how effortlessly the Sierra.ev goes about its job.The first thing that stands out is the ride quality. Tata’s Frequency Dependent Damping suspension has been calibrated exceptionally well for Indian roads. Broken patches, expansion joints and potholes are rounded off with remarkable composure, inspiring confidence from the outset. Rather than crashing through imperfections, the Sierra.ev simply settles into the road, isolating occupants from the surface beneath. It is one of those rare SUVs that feels equally comfortable crawling through urban traffic as it does covering long highway distances.
