Tata Motors Rolls Out Lifetime HV Battery Warranty
Tata Motors has announced that the Curvv.ev and the 45 kWh version of Nexon.ev will now come with a Lifetime High-Voltage (HV) Battery Warranty. Available both for ongoing and future purchases, the warranty lasts for 15 years from the date of first registration and includes unlimited mileage coverage.
Key Highlights
-
Eligibility: Applies to new buyers and existing first-time private owners.
-
Coverage Period: 15 years from vehicle registration—industry’s longest EV battery protection.
-
Unlimited Kilometres: No cap, ensuring peace of mind for long-term owners.
This initiative addresses consumer concerns around battery degradation and eventual replacement costs—often cited as major hurdles to EV adoption.
Loyalty Benefit & Savings
To boost adoption, Tata Motors is also offering a ₹50,000 loyalty bonus for existing Tata.ev owners who upgrade to either Curvv.ev or Nexon.ev 45 kWh. Combined with the warranty, Tata estimates that over a decade, owners can save up to ₹8–9 lakh in running and maintenance costs compared to conventional vehicles.
Industry Context & Impact
Tata first launched a similar lifetime battery warranty with the Harrier.ev, and the Company’s decision now extends these benefits to two of its most popular EV models. This move positions Tata Motors as a frontrunner in building long-term trust and setting new standards in battery assurance within India’s growing EV market.
