Design: Retro Charm Meets Modernity

The design successfully pays homage to the original 1990s icon while adopting Tata’s contemporary design language.

Iconic Silhouette: It retains the classic boxy, upright stance and a high bonnet, giving it a commanding road presence.
Signature Rear Window: A modern interpretation of the original Sierra’s large, curved rear glass panel is incorporated, a key nostalgic design element. This is achieved with a distinct rear quarter window and a floating roof.
Modern Touches: The front features a sophisticated look with split LED headlamps, a connected LED Daytime Running Light (DRL) bar, and a sleek, closed-off grille on the EV. Other modern additions include flush-type door handles and dual-tone alloy wheels.
