The production-ready Tata Sierra EV interior has surfaced online through a leaked design patent, confirming that much of its cabin design remains consistent with the concept showcased earlier. Both the electric and ICE variants of the Sierra are among the most eagerly awaited launches in India this year.
Launch Timeline & Key Expectations
Tata Motors had unveiled the near-production version of the Sierra EV at Auto Expo 2023. The official launch is expected by the end of 2025, following the debut of the ICE variant. Once launched, it will compete with electric SUVs like the Mahindra BE 6, Hyundai Creta EV, and Maruti e Vitara.
Tata Sierra EV Interior Design
The leaked patent images reveal that the Tata Sierra EV interior has stayed true to its concept form. A large touchscreen (likely 12-inch) merges seamlessly into the digital instrument cluster binnacle. The central and side AC vents have been redesigned to appear more prominent and integrated into the horizontal dashboard layout. The four-spoke steering wheel seen on the concept has been retained in this version as well.
Cabin Layout & Seating Configurations
Buyers can expect the Sierra EV in two configurations — a standard 5-seater and a more luxurious 4-seater lounge setup. The lounge version is expected to feature ottoman-style rear seats, offering an executive experience. The dashboard maintains its stepped, layered effect and features a centrally placed speaker unit.
Customization & Unique Interior Elements
While the moss inserts from the concept model don’t appear in the leaked image, Tata may offer them as optional accessories. Tata’s design head, Martin Ulharik, has hinted at personalization options such as door-mounted mini flower vases, ambient lighting, and fold-out tray tables, enhancing the interior’s appeal.
Shared Features with Curvv EV
The Sierra EV interior is expected to incorporate a touch-based HVAC panel and drive selector lever from the Curvv EV. The floating center console with extra storage beneath will likely be retained as well, adding practicality without compromising on modern aesthetics.

Differences from ICE Sierra
Unlike the ICE-powered Sierra, which features a triple-screen dashboard layout, the EV version gets a more streamlined design. This divergence in dashboard styling is rare in EV and ICE counterparts but could help each model cater to distinct buyer preferences in India.
Platform, Powertrain & Price
While technical specs are yet to be fully disclosed, the Tata Sierra EV is expected to use Tata’s Acti.EV architecture — the same as the Curvv EV. It will be positioned above the Curvv EV and below the Harrier EV. Expected to be front-wheel drive only, prices could range from ₹20 lakh to ₹25 lakh (ex-showroom).
Conclusion
In conclusion, the leaked design patent of the Tata Sierra EV interior confirms that Tata Motors is staying true to its futuristic concept while adding practical touches suited for everyday use. With a minimalist yet premium cabin, flexible seating layouts, and personalization options, the Sierra EV is shaping up to be a standout in India’s growing midsize electric SUV segment. As anticipation builds ahead of its late 2025 launch, the Sierra EV promises not just a nostalgic nameplate revival, but a bold step forward in Tata’s electric mobility journey.
