Safety has always been Tata’s upper hand, and with the Sierra, it will try the same. Expect the SUV to be included with several features and tech. While we expect the Sierra’s feature list to be vast and include more features compared to the Jaecoo J5, still the upcoming JSW SUV will still be loaded with the needed features.
One of the major advantage with the Sierra EV could be the QWD tech, which will drive its demand, as it did for the Harrier.
As both the SUVs are expected to offer a good feature suite, an exact verdict on which SUV really thrives, depends on the actual suite of features. That said, as we near the launch, we expect both the brands to reveal the features of the models.
