Tata Motors has outlined its EV plans for 2026. The company has confirmed that it will enter the premium EV market under the Avinya brand by the end of 2026, following the Sierra.ev and Punch.ev launches in the first half of 2026. These three models will form the core of Tata’s next EV wave, with three more nameplates to follow by FY30 as the brand expands its electric line-up across more segments.
Tata’s EV expansion comes as the company crosses 2.5 lakh EV sales in India, giving it a 66 percent share of the electric passenger vehicle market. The Nexon.ev is the first EV in the country to pass 1 lakh sales units, and about 26 percent of Tata’s EV customers are first-time car buyers.

Sierra.ev and Punch.ev to arrive in 2026
Upcoming SUVs increase Tata’s footprint across core EV segments
Tata Motors will launch the Sierra.ev and the new Punch.ev in the calendar year 2026. The Sierra.ev will join the midsize SUV segment, while the Punch.ev strengthens Tata’s compact EV line. These additions will broaden Tata’s coverage alongside existing models such as the Tiago.ev, Tigor.ev, Nexon.ev, Curvv.ev and Harrier.ev.
Avinya brand to launch its first model in 2026
New premium EV line to debut Tata’s Gen 3 platform
The Avinya models will be the first to use Tata’s Gen 3 skateboard born-electric platform. The first Avinya model is expected to arrive by the end of CY26 and will be positioned above Tata’s current EV range. The new platform will enable larger and more advanced models and gives Tata an entry into the premium EV segment, where it does not currently compete.
Three more EV nameplates to follow through FY30
Upcoming models to be supported by expanded charging infrastructure
Tata will introduce three additional EV nameplates between FY27 and FY30, taking the total to five new EVs in the next five years. These models will extend Tata’s presence across more segments and will be rolled out alongside routine updates to the existing range.
The expansion will also be supported by a growing charging network, with 400,000 charge points targeted by CY27, including over 30,000 public fast chargers, and a planned scale-up to 1 million charge points and 100,000 public chargers by 2030.
