The upcoming Sierra will showcase a modern SUV design characterized by a wide stance, muscular fenders, and a clamshell tailgate. The Sierra EV is expected to share its platform with the Harrier EV, ensuring a strong and capable architecture.
Inside, buyers can expect a spacious cabin equipped with a panoramic sunroof, dual digital displays, and connected car technology. The Sierra will also offer a five-seater configuration, with a more luxurious four-seater lounge option for those seeking premium comfort.
