5 Most Common Questions On New Tata Sierra Answered
Top 5 questions on the new 2025 Tata Sierra answered, including AWD availability, pricing, sunroof variants, accessories, and engine options.
The 2025 Tata Sierra has finally made its debut, bringing retro-inspired styling alongside premium, feature-rich interiors and a wide range of powertrain options. With introductory prices starting at ₹11.49 lakh (ex-showroom), the midsize SUV has quickly become one of the most discussed new launches in India. Naturally, many of our readers have brought up questions surrounding its drivetrain options, variant distribution, and feature highlights.
To help clear the confusion, here are our answers to the five most commonly asked questions about the new Tata Sierra:
1. Does the 2025 Tata Sierra come with 4x4 / AWD?
Asked by Nishant Kumar
The 2025 Tata Sierra was launched exclusively with a front-wheel-drive (FWD) setup at launch and does not feature an all-wheel-drive (AWD) or 4x4 system at present. The SUV is built on Tata’s new All-Terrain Ready, Omni-Energy and Geometry Scalable (ARGOS) architecture. Compatible with multiple powertrains, including hybrid and CNG, this is engineered to support AWD systems. As a result, we may get AWD/4x4 versions in the future, but this is not yet confirmed.
2. What is the starting price of the new Sierra?
Asked by Varun K Sharma
The new Sierra has been launched at an introductory price of ₹11.49 lakh (ex-showroom). This places it above the base pricing of rivals such as the Hyundai Creta ( ₹10.73 lakh), the Kia Seltos ( ₹10.79 lakh), and the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara ( ₹10.76 lakh). With its higher entry point, the Sierra positions itself as a more premium, feature-loaded option in the midsize SUV segment.

5. What engine options do you get with the Tata Sierra?
Asked by H. Shankar
Tata offers the Sierra SUV with three 1.5-litre engine options, of which one is diesel and two are petrol. The Hyperiod TGDi turbo-petrol unit is the most powerful of the bunch, making 157 bhp and 255 Nm of torque. This is available solely with a 6-speed automatic gearbox. The naturally aspirated Revotron power unit can be mated to either a 6-speed manual or a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox, making 106 bhp and 145 Nm of torque.
The third and final option is the Kryojet turbo-diesel mill that can be had with a 6-speed manual or automatic, delivering 116 bhp and 280 Nm (AT) / 260 Nm (MT) of torque.
Tata claims the naturally aspirated Revotron engine will have a higher ethanol blend compatibility, making it suitable for those seeking a worry-free driving experience in the future. The powerunit is also said to ensure lower NVH levels, which should result in more refined driving dynamics.
Fuel economy figures for the Sierra are not available yet. The diesel engine delivers an ARAI-claimed mileage of 16.8 kmpl in the Harrier SUV.
