Tata Motors, India’s largest commercial vehicle manufacturer, has strengthened its leadership in electric commercial mobility with the launch of the new Tata Intra EV pickup.
Expanding electric SCV portfolio
Expanding its electric small commercial vehicle portfolio, the new pickup brings together the proven strengths of the trusted Intra platform with a purpose-built electric architecture, delivering a dependable, high-earning solution for India’s evolving cargo requirements. It will be available across Tata Motors’ commercial vehicle dealerships nationwide, at a starting price of Rs 11.95 lakh (ex-showroom).
EV strategy & product portfolio
Tata Motors MD & CEO Girish Wagh said, “Building on the strong market response to our electric mini trucks and the successful deployment of our electric buses, we rolled out our next-generation electric trucks earlier this year and are now advancing further with the launch of electric pickups. Through this progression, Tata Motors has established the country’s most comprehensive electric commercial vehicle portfolio across segments.”
Built for real-world operations
Shaped by deep insights from real-world operations and engineered for demanding duty cycles, the Intra EV pickup introduces electric capability into one of the country’s most versatile pickups. It enables operators to move heavier loads, run longer routes, and operate with greater confidence, while benefiting from lower operating costs and a reduced environmental footprint.
Product positioning and performance focus
Pinaki Haldar, Vice President & Business Head, SCVPU, Tata Motors, said, “The new Intra EV pickup has been developed with a clear focus on earning capability and everyday usability, combining one of the highest payload capacities in its segment with strong performance, long range, and high uptime, all at a segment-beating price. Its comfortable, crash-tested cabin, car-like driving dynamics, and thoughtfully integrated features are designed to reduce fatigue and improve productivity across long operating hours.”
Designed to earn, built to endure
At the heart of the Intra EV pickup is a clear focus on productivity and profitability. With a 1,750 kg payload and long load body options of up to 10 ft 2 in, the vehicle supports a broad spectrum of applications, from FMCG and e-commerce to cold-chain, waste management, LPG, and dairy distribution, enabling higher load per trip and better asset utilisation.
Powertrain and range capabilities
A 72 kW electric motor producing 230 Nm of peak torque delivers strong pulling power even under full load, while 23% gradeability ensures seamless operations on challenging terrain. The 28.2 kWh, IP67-rated battery, engineered for Indian weather and usage conditions, offers a certified range of 211 km on a single charge, supporting multiple duty cycles through the day. Fast-charging capability, with a CCS2 charger, enables 10–80% charging in 55 minutes, maximising uptime.
Comfort that supports productivity
Recognising the long hours spent behind the wheel, the Intra EV pickup is equipped with a walk-through cabin, car-like ergonomics, and Electric Power Assisted Steering (EPAS) that significantly reduces steering effort. The inherently low noise and vibration of the electric drivetrain create a quieter, less fatiguing cabin environment, supporting driver focus, comfort, and overall well-being.
