design details

Talking about design, Sierra EV Neo is made in retro style, which combines the boxy look of the old Sierra with a modern touch. Features like upright stance, flat bonnet, closed-off grille (EV specific), split LED headlamps, full-width LED light bar, flush door handles, muscular bumpers, squared wheel arches and dual-tone roof make it adventure ready.

The rear has wraparound windows and connected LED tail lamps. The panoramic glass roof (alpine style but safety compliant) makes it special. This is a five-door compact SUV, which is different from the three-door model. The design looks more premium and boxy than the Nexon and Curve, which gives an off-road feel.

Cabin and Comfort

The interior is very premium and spacious. Features include floating center console with triple-screen dashboard (12.3-inch digital cluster, central infotainment and passenger display), four-spoke steering wheel (illuminated Tata logo), dual-tone materials, ambient lighting and panoramic sunroof.

Front seats are powered and ventilated, second row ventilation, dual-zone climate control, wireless charger, premium audio system (with JBL or Dolby) and connected car tech (iRA app).
