• Spied undergoing test runs in Mumbai
• Petrol version likely in the works
A camouflaged Tata Harrier was recently spotted undergoing test runs in Mumbai. Currently, the popular SUV is available with a diesel engine and an all-electric avatar, the Harrier EV, which was launched earlier this year.
Although heavily camouflaged, the test mule appears identical to the current Harrier. The alloy wheels and the visible battery pack, however, hint that this could be a Harrier EV prototype.
The Harrier EV is offered in RWD and AWD configurations, and is priced between Rs. 21.49-30.23 lakh (ex-showroom). It comes with two battery pack options — 65kWh and 75kWh — delivering a claimed range of 538km and 627km, respectively.
Given that the Harrier EV is a recent launch, the chances of the same being a facelift or a model year update are slim. It is more likely that Tata Motors is conducting internal testing to identify and address real-world issues post launch, a practice often followed by manufacturers before rolling out software or hardware updates at dealerships or service centres.
