Expert Review on Tata Sierra
Tata Sierra Review And Opinion - Top Things to Know
Tata Motors introduced the Sierra SUV and even before the customer deliveries could start, we got a chance to drive the SUV. And not just one, but two models - both the petrol and diesel. Bilal Firfiray in his first drive review of the new Tata Sierra highlights many things, and here are five takeaways from the detailed report.
- Buyers can expect the reliable 1.5L diesel to have good low-end grunt.
- On the other hand, the new 1.5L turbo-petrol (Hyperion engine) offers strong torque and good drivability for city/highway use.
- The steering on both models isn't quick but still light to use.

Bilal Firfiray mentions, "When we started the engine in the morning, going through the cabin and the presentation inside, we had to double-check whether the engine was idling. And that's a huge compliment. There are no vibrations whatsoever that filter inside the cabin, and it's silent, which is a characteristic we usually associate with Japanese engines."
Pros
- Rugged and adventurous Design
- Powerful engine options
- Spacious Interior
Cons
- Limited features in entry-level models
- Pricey top-spec variants
Verdict
The Tata Sierra is a well-rounded package with a distinct design and spacious and comfortable cabin. It even gets new-age equipment like a triple-screen layout and ADAS in the top-spec variants. Moreover, it offers various powertrain options in the mid-size SUV category making it an interesting proposition to consider.
Tata Sierra Price List (Variant Wise)
Tata Sierra Ex-Showroom price ranges from ₹ 11.49 to 21.29 Lakh. Tata offers Sierra in 24 variants. The top variant of Sierra is Accomplished Plus 1.5 Diesel AT and the base variant is Smart Plus MT.
