Top 10 Features Of The 2025 Tata Harrier EV | V3Cars

1. 3x More Parking Sensors Than Safari/Harrier

For the first time ever, Tata are offering 3x the number of parking sensors. So far, even on a car as wide and as expensive as the Safari, they were only offering 2 front and 2 rear parking sensors. With the Harrier EV, Tata are offering 6 front and 6 rear parking sensors. So, on just one bumper, the Harrier EV has more parking sensors than the Safari has in total.

2. 4WD w/ Terrain Modes — Default RWD

Another thing we have complained about is the lack of 4WD in their portfolio.

We wondered for so long what gave Tata the right to call themselves the top (or at least one of the top) SUV brand(s) in India when they had no 4WD in their portfolio for half a decade. Even Skoda and Volkswagen have at least one 4WD vehicle in their portfolio despite having a total of only 2 SUVs.

With the Harrier EV, Tata are addressing this concern as it gets 2 motors. The rear one is the primary motor while the front one can help with improving acceleration or during off-roading.

It’s worth noting that the Harrier EV will become Tata’s only RWD vehicle in their portfolio. Just like 4WD, RWD has also been missing in their passenger car lineup. Even the 2WD variants of the Harrier EV will have a rear-wheel drivetrain. This allows them to offer drift mode even in the Harrier EV base model.

3. Transparent Mode

With the help of God-knows-how-many cameras and some software voodoo, Tata have managed to make the whole car’s floor appear transparent on the screen. This will come across as quite useful when off-roading while navigating hurdles. Along with the 4WD option, this should make the Harrier quite capable off-road. So, Tata aren’t just back with a 4WD, they are back in the 4WD game with a bang.

4. Multiple Key Options

With the Harrier EV, Tata are offering 3 different ways to drive the car. One is the traditional key fob with some new features. Secondly, you can also lock/unlock and drive the Harrier EV with an NFC key card, which looks just like a credit card. If you are worried about losing the key fob or the key card, then you can use your phone or smart watch as a key and never worry about losing the key or the NFC card.

5. Auto Park, Summon & Retrace

The Harrier EV can park itself into a parallel or perpendicular parking spot. In the case of perpendicular parking, if the space is too tight, you can also use the key fob to move the car forward or back without anyone in the car using the summon feature. And the controls to do that are right there on the key fob.

Moreover, the car always remembers the steering inputs we have given in the last 50m of forward movement. So, if you end up in a tight lane with no way out, you can just engage the retrace mode to automatically get out of it like a pro.

6. Dual Dashcam & IRVM

The Harrier EV offers a rear-facing camera to record or see what’s going on behind you — even while you’re driving forward. While this feature is available in the Hyundai cars as affordable as the Grand i10 Nios, the fresh thought here is that the inside rear view mirror doubles up as a screen for the rear camera. So, you can drive safely even if you have a tall passenger in the rear centre seat blocking the view in the mirror.

There's another feature that makes this setup stand out. Just behind the IRVM is another dashcam recording the front view. Hyundai also offer a dual dashcam setup but it appears a bit intrusive with its cabin recording feature. The dual dashcam in the Harrier EV records the front and rear of the car and provides a safety net in case of a crash while also being more than capable of recording anything unusual or scenic.

7. Blind Spot Camera + Warning

The Harrier EV also gets blind spot cameras. Basically, the side cameras in the 360-degree camera setup also do double duty as blind spot cameras when you engage the respective indicator. This is an easy way to improve the safety but the blind spot warning system also uses sensors or radars to warn you if there’s another vehicle in your blind spot. This warning appears in the respective side mirrors. This is more effective in preventing accidents as this works even when you don’t use the turn signals.

8. Infotainment Upgrade

The Harrier gets a fairly large 14.5-inch touchscreen, which is not the biggest but feels just right. Not like a giant TV stuck on the dashboard as the MG Windsor. That’s not all. The display is sourced from Samsung, the leader in display technology and it’s of the QLED kind. So, it gets regional dimming, which you will appreciate during night drives. For instance, even if you fully turn off the display, most cars leave the display backlight on while the screen just goes black. This leads to some light leakage and the blacks look more like grey. It’s not a problem but a major annoyance for some people (yours truly included).

With QLED, the backlight would turn off completely. In fact, if you only want to see the clock, the rest of the backlight in the display would be off leading to deep blacks and none of the greyish hue or light leakage.

Moreover, the car gets a 10-speaker JBL sound system with Dolby Atmos tuning for a full surround sound experience. The setup offers 4 door speakers, 4 door tweeters, 1 centre stage speaker and 1 subwoofer in the boot. Even the current Tata flagship, Safari, gets only a 7-speaker setup.

9. 120kW DC Fast Charging

With larger battery packs (65 and 75kWh), a car as big as the Harrier EV could use some fast charging capabilities. A 30kW of even a 60kW DC charging would leave you waiting quite a while. With 120kW DC fast charging, the Harrier EV can go from 20% to 80% battery capacity in just 25 minutes. We expect the car to be capable of accepting a peak power of 105kW from a 120kW charger after factoring in some thermal inefficiencies and transmission losses. Obviously, this is the fastest charging we have seen in a Tata EV.

10. Lifetime Warranty On Battery

Following the precedent set by MG and Mahindra, Tata are also offering a lifetime warranty on the Harrier EV’s battery pack. For now, Tata are claiming to offer no limit on the kilometre driven while Mahindra have a 2 lakh kilometre limit and a 70% battery health. Lastly, MG’s word is the most difficult to trust here as they have already backtracked their commitment to offer unlimited free public charging to early adopters of the Windsor. So, we can’t be sure what kind of support they may offer in the long run. As for the documentation, there’s absolutely nothing we can find with respect to the battery warranty terms and conditions of MG Windsor EV.

We can’t say for sure what kind of support you should expect from Tata. All we know right now is that they are claiming to offer the best warranty in the industry.
