The Tata Harrier midsize SUV has achieved a major milestone, surpassing 150,000 cumulative domestic sales. Built on the Land Rover-derived Omega platform and originally powered by a 2.0-litre diesel engine, the Harrier line-up expanded significantly with the launch of the Harrier EV in June 2025—fueling a strong revival in demand ahead of the upcoming petrol Harrier launch.
Harrier Crosses 156,000 Units Since 2019 Launch
According to industry data, Tata Harrier sales from January 2019 to October 2025 total 156,575 units.
- FY2023 was the Harrier’s best year yet, with 30,635 units sold (up 5% YoY).
- Sales declined 19% in FY2024 (24,701 units).
- In FY2025, volumes dropped again by 23% to 18,989 units.
FY2026 Brings a Strong Comeback
The 2025–26 fiscal year is showing a promising shift. Combined sales of the diesel Harrier and Harrier EV reached 17,132 units between April–November 2025, marking a 41% YoY growth. The upcoming petrol Harrier, set to launch on December 9, is expected to accelerate this upward trajectory.

Petrol Harrier to Debut with Tata’s New ‘Hyperion’ Turbo Engine
For the first time since its launch, the Harrier will get a petrol powertrain. The new model will be powered by Tata’s 1.5-litre, four-cylinder, direct-injection turbo-petrol engine, part of the brand’s Hyperion engine family. This engine will first debut on the new Tata Sierra, followed by the Harrier.
The petrol Harrier will strengthen Tata’s position against key petrol rivals from MG, Hyundai, Mahindra, and Jeep.
Will the Harrier Break its Annual Sales Record?
The Harrier’s best-ever annual performance stands at 30,635 units in FY2023. With five months remaining in FY2026, the SUV needs 13,504 more units to surpass that figure. Given the strong EV momentum and the imminent petrol launch, the Harrier is expected to cross 5,000 monthly units for the first time, possibly within the next couple of months.
