Tata Motors just dropped the Harrier.ev Stealth Edition in India at Rs 28.24 lakh (ex-showroom), and honestly? It’s giving serious Batman vibes with that murdered-out look on what’s already our most powerful desi electric SUV.
This isn’t just another variant launch – it’s Tata’s way of saying they get it. Indian buyers want their EVs to have personality, not just efficiency. The Stealth Edition sits pretty at the top of the Harrier.ev family tree, mixing that bonkers 390 bhp dual-motor punch with looks that’ll have people doing double-takes at traffic lights.
Design
Let’s talk about that elephant in the room – or should I say, the black panther? This thing’s matte black finish isn’t your regular paint job; it’s more like automotive stealth technology. Every surface that could be black, is black. The grille, bumpers, even the smallest trim pieces get the dark treatment.
Those 19-inch piano black diamond-cut wheels? Chef’s kiss. They’re not just pretty to look at – they complete the whole “I’m too cool for chrome” aesthetic perfectly. The only giveaway that this isn’t a regular Harrier.ev is a subtle Stealth badge on the front fender. Blink and you’ll miss it, which is exactly the point.
Interior
Pop open the door and you’re stepping into what feels like a luxury lounge that happens to have wheels. The all-black Carbon Noir leather with contrasting stitching doesn’t just look expensive – it feels it too. Those gloss-black dashboard inserts catch light just right, creating this cockpit vibe that makes every drive feel special.
Everything you’d want in a premium electric SUV is here. Memory seats that remember exactly how you like to sit, dual-zone climate control so you and your co-pilot can argue about temperature in comfort, and ambient lighting that sets the mood just right. It’s the kind of cabin that makes you want to take the long way home.

Features
Tech nerds, this one’s for you. That massive 14.53-inch Harman Samsung Neo QLED screen isn’t just big – it’s the world’s first in an SUV. Pair it with the 10.25-inch digital cluster, and you’ve got more pixels than some people’s TVs.
But here’s where it gets fun. Wireless charging? Check. Panoramic sunroof for those Instagram shots? Double check. JBL sound system with Dolby Atmos that’ll make your favorite playlist sound like a concert? Triple check.
The party tricks are where this SUV really shows off. Auto Park Assist that parallel parks better than most humans, Summon Mode that brings the car to you (yes, really), and Reverse Assist that can back you out of tight spots by retracing your path for up to 50 meters. It’s like having a co-pilot who never gets tired.
Performance
Here’s where the Harrier.ev Stealth Edition flexes its muscles. That 75 kWh battery pack feeds two electric motors that collectively pump out 390 bhp and 504 Nm. In plain English? This thing will pin you to your seat when you floor it.
Zero to 100 km/h in 6.3 seconds means it’s quicker than most sports cars from a decade ago. The all-wheel-drive system grips like it’s angry, and with six terrain modes including Rock Crawl (because why not?), you can take this urban warrior pretty much anywhere.
Range anxiety? Not here. With 622 km of real-world range and fast charging that adds 250 km in 15 minutes, road trips just got a lot more interesting. Time for a coffee break, and boom – you’re good for another few hundred kilometers.
Safety
Safety kit reads like a wish list. Seven airbags including a knee airbag, because Tata doesn’t mess around when it comes to protecting occupants. The Level 2 ADAS suite has over 20 features that basically turn the SUV into your personal safety net.
That 540-degree camera system with transparent mode? It’s like having X-ray vision for parking. Blind spot monitoring keeps you aware of what you can’t see, and the HD rearview mirror with DVR records everything – just in case someone tries to pull a fast one.
Price
At Rs 28.24 lakh (ex-showroom), the Stealth Edition isn’t exactly pocket change. But then again, exclusivity never comes cheap. You’re paying for the privilege of driving India’s most powerful homegrown electric SUV that looks like it escaped from a superhero movie.
Sure, it’s pricier than the regular variants, but when you’re getting this level of performance, tech, and that drop-dead gorgeous matte black finish, the premium starts making sense. It’s for folks who want their garage to have that one vehicle that makes everything else look ordinary.
