Whats the range expected/are getting on the harrier ev 75kwh?? @100-120kmph constant highways with AC and what's avg AEC?
Wanted to the real range than claimed range
I wanted to talk to those who owned and had the experience of EV so that BETTER CHOICES CAN BE MADE.
As I mention in my previous post that dealer is trying to sell a manufacturing defects car to me all the paper is done.
But I refuse the delivery because they unable to solve the car issue.
So at the end I denied the dealer that either give me new car or give me my refund. So he arrange the new car within 20 days and deliver to me. I drove this car 900 in 2 days. Everything is ok and perfectly working. No quality issue. But a little disappointed with cost cutting by tata like jack , and cheap quality parts like turn indicators sticks and boot and interior covering material.(O.C).
[OC] Hi Guys,
I’m planning to buy my first car and wanted to buy a Petrol only but due to recent news of blending scams and ethanol chocking the engines, now I’m skeptical and thinking is CNG the better option for me ?
I’m really not sure since the govt has already started testing of E25 and if I buy an E20 car today and a year later if 25 becomes mandatory what will I do ?
Need serious advice.
I've been eagerly waiting for the Tata Sierra EV and had pretty much decided it would be my family's first EV. We already own multiple Tata cars, so I really wanted to stay with the brand.
But one decision has completely changed my mind: the lack of an 11.2 kW AC onboard charger.
For a car that many buyers will keep for 10-15 years, offering only a 7.2 kW charger feels difficult to justify when competitors in the same price bracket are already offering 11 kW (or better). It makes the car feel less future-proof than it should be.
What confuses me even more is that Tata should already have meaningful cost advantages with the Sierra EV by sharing the body structure, interiors, manufacturing lines, tooling, and many components with the ICE Sierra. While the actual numbers aren't public, I wouldn't be surprised if this saves a significant amount per vehicle compared to developing a completely dedicated EV. If that's the case, why not reinvest some of those savings into EV-specific hardware like:
Tata deserves a lot of credit for kickstarting India's EV journey, but the competition has caught up. Buyers spending ₹20–30 lakh today aren't just comparing badge or design; they're comparing technology that will still feel modern a decade from now.
Am I expecting too much, or does anyone else feel Tata missed an opportunity here?

Hi everyone,
I own a Tata Punch Pure Plus iCNG and I'm looking for advice from fellow owners and automotive enthusiasts.
My brand-new car suffered a major engine failure at approximately 253 km. According to the authorised dealer, the oil pump failed, but instead of repairing it, they replaced the entire engine assembly under warranty.
What surprised me even more was that:
- I had instructed the dealer in writing not to perform any major repair or replacement without my approval, but the engine was replaced anyway.
- The dealer later stated in writing that the old engine number plate would be installed on the replacement engine.
- They also stated that no RTO or insurance compliance was required because the old engine number plate would continue to be used.
I have asked Tata Motors to explain:
- why the complete engine was replaced when only the oil pump reportedly failed;
- why my authorization was not obtained before replacing the engine;
- the basis for the engine number statement; and
- the Root Cause Analysis and technical investigation report.
I have not yet received a satisfactory explanation.
I would like to ask the community:
Has anyone experienced a complete engine replacement on a brand-new Tata vehicle at such low mileage?
Has anyone ever been told that the old engine number would continue to be used on a replacement engine?
Is replacing an entire engine for an oil pump failure a common practice?
What would you do if this happened to your brand-new vehicle?
I'm posting here to understand whether this is an isolated incident or whether others have had similar experiences.
Thank you.
Booked Tata Harrier Feerless X Petrol on 08.06.2026 , But still no communication on delivery either by dealer or company. Dealer now even saying it may take 8 to 9 months. I don't know should I cancel the booking or not ...
I hear this grinding sound when my car is climbing steep slopes. What is this?
Car is Punch AMT and brakes were not applied when this was recorded.
BTW this was a slippery surface(tiles). So, it might be slight wheelspin.
I hope this is not clutch slip or something.
Is this something to be concerned about or something to avoid?
Hello everyone,
I am looking for legal guidance regarding a warranty dispute involving my brand-new Tata Punch Pure Plus iCNG.
The vehicle suffered a major engine failure at approximately 253 km. Before the repair, I had clearly instructed the authorised dealer in writing not to carry out any major repair or replacement without my prior approval.
Despite this, the dealer replaced the complete engine assembly under warranty without obtaining my written consent.
Later, the dealer gave me a written reply stating that:
\- the oil pump had failed but the complete engine was replaced;
\- owner authorization was not required because the replacement was under warranty;
\- the old engine number plate would be installed on the replacement engine; and
\- no RTO or insurance compliance was required.
I repeatedly requested Tata Motors to provide:
\- the legal or policy basis for replacing the complete engine without my authorization;
\- the legal basis for using the old engine number on the replacement engine;
\- the complete Root Cause Analysis and technical investigation report.
However, I have not received a clear, point-wise response.
My questions are:
Can an authorised dealer legally replace the complete engine of a customer's brand-new vehicle without obtaining prior written consent?
Does a warranty repair eliminate the requirement to obtain the owner's authorization before replacing a major assembly like an engine?
If a dealer states that the old engine number will be used on the replacement engine and that no RTO compliance is required, which authority is competent to verify whether this procedure is legally correct?
Apart from filing a consumer case, what legal remedies or authorities should I consider?
I have documentary evidence, including the dealer's written replies and my correspondence with Tata Motors. I am seeking legal guidance on my rights and the appropriate course of action.
Thank you.
I have the punch ev 2026 top model, and the feature of displaying google maps on Driver Instrument Display with Apple CarPlay rolled out just about a week back, which we had been anticipating since ages. The issue is that the DID display does not show the ETA display (distance in km, time to reach, est. time of arrival) like in the infotainment display. Anyone facing the same issue, is there any way to enable that?
Hello all fellow owners of Tata Cars,
I wanna buy a Tata Car (Altroz Diesel) for myself and i am worried about the after sales service and the service center experience since every other person complains about Tata on the internet
Please share your experience with the Tata service Center in nagpur, also i have some questions regarding the same, I hope to get answers from you
These answers will help me to decide if i should buy the Tata or not since everything depends on the after sales service once I buy the car.
Thank you
I bought my Tata Punch (Accomplished Dazzle pack, Manual Transmission) in November 2022, and today I officially hit the 50,000 km mark! It’s been my daily driver for the last three and a half years, and I’ve taken it on some massive road trips across the country.
Since prospective buyers are always asking about long-term Tata ownership, I figured I’d do an AMA. Here is a quick summary of my experience so far:
The Drive & Performance
City: Super comfortable. It handles daily traffic like a breeze and the manual gearbox gets the job done easily.
Highway: It does feel underpowered when you’re trying to make quick overtakes. However, the high-speed stability is fantastic—the car stays completely grounded and inspires a lot of confidence on the open road.
Fuel Economy (The E20 Factor)
I’ve noticed a significant drop in mileage since the shift to E20 fuel. Here are my real-world numbers:
Before E20: 16-17 kmpl (City) | 21 kmpl (Highway)
After E20: 12-13 kmpl (City) | 16-17 kmpl (Highway)
The Tourer Life (Long Trips)
I’ve pushed this car on several long highway stretches.
Up North: Delhi to Haridwar (~210 km), Rishikesh (~240 km), Chandigarh (~250 km), and Jaipur (~260 km).
Down South: Hyderabad to Chirala (~300 km), Hampi (~365 km), Vizag (~650 km), and Goa (~670 km).
Niggles, NVH, & Quirks
Cold Starts & NVH: During a cold start, there is noticeable cabin noise and you can actually feel the vibration in the driver's seat. However, once the engine warms up, the cabin goes completely silent.
Electrical Gremlins: The steering-mounted controls have a mind of their own. For example, clicking the "next song" button actually mutes the audio, along with a few other minor electrical nitbits here and there.
Ergonomics: Here is a weird quirk—I feel the steering wheel is mounted slightly to the left of the driver seat alignment. It’s a slight offset, but you definitely notice it over time.
Maintenance & Reliability
Wear & Tear: Just standard replacements so far—spark plugs, battery, brake pads, and tires. The car itself has been highly reliable, and I've never had to make an insurance claim.
Service Experience: An absolute nightmare. The car is great, but dealing with Tata Service Centers (TSC) has been a massive headache.
Ask me anything about the car, the road trips, or the dreaded service center experiences!
Hi everyone,
I need some advice because I'm honestly confused and frustrated.
I booked a Tata Punch before the recent price hike. The dealership already had the vehicle in stock, and my planned delivery is on the 5th.
Here's what happened:
I visited the dealership on 29th to get the finance processed through their finance team.
I was there till around 8 PM, but their finance executive couldn't process the loan due to server issues and other delays.
The next day, nothing moved from their end either.
Since I already had a pre-approved ICICI Bank loan, I decided to process it myself to avoid further delays.
The loan was sanctioned and disbursed directly to the dealer.
Only after the loan amount was disbursed, the sales executive called me and said I now have to pay an additional ₹12,000 because Tata's prices had increased.
My issue is not even the ₹12,000 itself.
My issue is:
If the price changed, why didn't the dealership inform me before the loan was disbursed?
Why wasn't I given a revised Proforma Invoice?
Why wasn't I told, "Please don't disburse the loan until we issue the updated invoice"?
Instead, after the money reached them, I was told that I should bear the difference.
What made it worse was the sales executive's response. He literally asked me:
"Who asked you to disburse the loan without asking me?"
I told him that I had already spent hours at the dealership trying to get their finance team to process the loan. The delay wasn't because of me. If there was a price revision, shouldn't it have been the dealership's responsibility to communicate that before accepting the payment?
I asked to speak to the General Manager. He said he would call me after his review meeting, but despite multiple calls and messages, I still haven't received a callback.
The quotation does mention that the price prevailing at the time of invoicing/delivery applies, so I understand they may technically have a contractual basis to charge the revised price. However, I still feel the communication and customer handling have been very poor.
So I'd like to ask the community:
Has anyone faced a similar situation with Tata dealerships?
Should a dealer inform the customer about a price revision before accepting the loan disbursement?
Is it reasonable for me to ask the dealership to absorb the ₹12,000 or offer some goodwill compensation given that the delay originated at their end?
If the GM continues to ignore me, should I escalate this to Tata Motors Customer Care?
I'd really appreciate hearing from people who've dealt with Tata dealerships or have experience with vehicle purchases.
TL;DR: Booked a Tata Punch before the price hike, spent hours at the dealership trying to get their finance team to process the loan, but they couldn't. I used my own pre-approved ICICI loan, which was disbursed to the dealer. Only after the money was credited did they tell me I had to pay an extra ₹12,000 due to a price hike. The sales executive blamed me for disbursing the loan without asking him, and the GM has been unresponsive despite promising a callback. Looking for advice on whether this is fair and how others would handle it.

Have been observing this trend from last couple of posts in reddit and social media.
There are a flurry of pics since last few days about Sierras breaking down and each and everyone of them have No number plates and one of them had temporary number plates.
Latest one being two incidents posted by Bangalore and Hyderabad traffic police, both do not even have temporary number plates. The number plate area is completely blank.
This makes me suspect, this is some deliberate sabotage by competitors.
Also there are many cars broken down on roads, but somehow only Sierra pics are taken, that too at very professional looking angles and quality.
Maybe even the police are involved?
Same as title.
Looking for reviews of service center experience in last 1 year. Share your location too.
Hi peeps, We (Me & my parents) were looking for a new and a bigger car and We finalised Tata Sierra Accomplished + GDI Petrol (AT) variant in Munnar Mist colour. We finalised it because of few reasons : 1. Good interior spacing and Extreme comfort (which was our top priority), 2. Powerful Petrol Engine with a reliable automatic transmission (TC), 3. It was my father’s first pick (My father being that 50 y/o guy who is often not impressed with everything and has no interests in cars whatsoever) and he is the one most excited about the Sierra.
We booked it on 27th March, 2025 and we were told that 2 months is standard waiting period and max is 3 months. I requested the sales person to deliver it to me on July 17 (As it is the auspicious day of Rath Yatra) or else on 8th August as it’s my father’s birthday and this car is messed for him (Almost 5 months). 2-3 months ago, the sales consultant dealing with me left the company and I was not assigned any other person, So I myself approached the dealership and got in touch with the TL. Last month, I hadn’t received any updates of vehicle leaving factory or any VIN number assignation since transit will take 10-20 days and remaining 7 days for registration, PDI and Payment so I approached the showroom. There they too had no idea whether delivery on July 17th is possible or not and they just had one response that is “They’ve no idea about where my vehicle is and when can I expect it to be delivered”. So I dropped the that and awaited for August 8th Delivery. Since past week, I have been in talks with the TL whether August 8th is possible or not and their response is same i.e., they don’t have any idea what is the status. So I started escalation, Reached the Dealership’s GM, He picked up my call asked me for details and told me he will call back in 10mins and he didn’t called. I called him after 2hrs he said he will call back and hung up. No response from his end till now.
Reached the TSM, Called him he listened to everything acknowledged that it’s not normal for this much delay and said he will arrange the car and share me a tracker asap. He didn’t called back with response for 2 days. I called him after 2 day, he kept cutting it. I called 2 times and till now No response or Anything.
I then reached Sierra’s Instagram handle, DM’d over there. They replied, took my details and the next day a different person from dealership called me and listened to my problem and said he doesn’t have any idea about it and will assign someone else. Till now no response from him as well.
We are willing to spend a very huge amount of almost 25L and on top of that we are expected to explore and reach multiple authorities within Tata motors just to get our car delivered for an auspicious day we intimated 5 months ago?
I need some suggestions on what should I do in this situation?
Cancelling is an most apt option but on the other hand, the demand of the vehicle is also there.
