Bharat Mobility Expo: Tata Motors has showcased its new Harrier EV Concept at this week's Bharat Mobility Expo 2024 in New Delhi. The Expo is scheduled to be held between February 1 and 3. The production-spec Tata Harrier EV is expected to go on sale later this year in the country; however, official details are yet to be revealed. To refresh your memory, the Tata Harrier EV concept made its public appearance for the first time at the Auto Expo 2023, which also had the Sierra EV concept, the Curvv ICE concept, and the Avinya concept on display. The Harrier EV sits on Tata's Gen 2 EV architecture, acti.ev, which also underpins the newly launched Tata Punch.ev. The new architecture, in combination with the Omega platform used by the internal combustion engine-powered SUV, incorporates an all-wheel-drive setup and cabin modifications.
