The Tata Sierra, and later Tata Sierra Turbo, was a three-door sport utility vehicle produced by Tata Motors of India. It was based on the Tata TL. It was the first automobile to be designed and produced in India. The vehicle also forms the basis for DC Design's Arya Concept vehicle. The Sierra was initially powered by a 1948 cc naturally aspirated engine. Tata Motors later launched Sierra Turbo, which was powered by turbocharged version of 1948cc diesel engine. Sierra Turbo was sported plastic flared wheel arches, headlight from Tata Estate, rear wipers and extra tail lamps on bumper. Tata launched Sierra Turbo 4x4 before pulling the plug.
