Tata Sierra Dark Features And Overview

The Tata Sierra Dark is a midsize SUV. It is the blacked-out Dark edition of the Tata Sierra. It keeps the same design, features and mechanicals as the regular Sierra. The changes are all about the look. You get a Friesian Black body with purple chrome detailing, a Violet Eclipse black leatherette cabin and dark alloy wheels. It suits you if you want a five-seat family SUV with a darker, moodier style.

Under the bonnet you get a real choice. There is a 1.5 litre Revotron petrol with 106 PS. There is a punchier 1.5 litre Hyperion turbo petrol making 160 PS. And there is a 1.5 litre Kryojet diesel with 118 PS. The diesel pulls hard from low revs and feels relaxed on long drives. You can have a manual or an automatic gearbox depending on the variant.

Prices run from 13.99 lakh to 21.59 lakh ex-showroom across six variants. The entry car is the petrol Pure L manual at 13.99 lakh. The top car is the diesel Accomplished+ automatic at 21.59 lakh. Most trims in between run the petrol with a manual gearbox. You can check every variant's ex-showroom figure before you decide, then compare the six Dark trims to see what each one adds.

As a family SUV it is sensible. You get five seats and a large 622 litre boot for the weekend run. A long 2730 mm wheelbase helps free up knee room in the back. Ground clearance is 205 mm, so broken roads and tall speed breakers are less of a worry. The fuel tank holds 50 litres. The main appeal is still the dark styling, so take in that Friesian Black finish up close and its violet accents.
