Tuhin Guha Published: February 23, 2021, 10:55 AM IST

Tata Motors has launched the Tata Safari India. The three-row SUV is the new flagship of the Tata Motors range and sits above the Harrier to which it is closely related. The Safari competes with the likes of the MG Hector Plus and Mahindra XUV500 in their diesel iterations

The Safari is 63mm longer than the Harrier, incorporating a stepped roof and a reworked rear section to accommodate the third row of seats. he width(1894mm) and wheelbase(2741mm) remain unchanged from the Harrier, although the new SUV is a bit taller at 1,786mm (80m more). The same 2.0-litre FCA-sourced Multijet diesel engine from the Harrier, which Tata calls Kryotec, is fitted to the Safari with 172PS and 350Nm. The engine is mated to a 6-speed manual and a six-speed automatic gearbox.

Tata Safari Adventure Persona

The Tata Safari's Optimal Modular Efficient Global Advanced Architecture (Omega arc) is derived from Jaguar Land Rover's entry-level D8 SUV platform, variations of which supported cars like the pre-facelift Land Rover Discovery Sport, Jaguar E-Pace and the last-gen Range Rover Evoque. The Tata platform is based on a steel structure unlike JLR's aluminium one and also incorporates more affordable suspension tech like a rear torsion beam instead of a multi-link set-up.

Here's what you get with each variant of the 2021 Tata Safari with their prices. The Safari comes in 9 variants with the lower mid-XMA and XZA being available with the automatic. The top-spec XZ+ and XZA+ can also be had with the Adventure Persona design pack. These are also the only variants to offer a second-row captain seat option, along with the bench seats available on other variants.
