Harrier and Safari were already in front of the XUV700 and Scorpio N, but now the MG Hector has caught up. The new Hector had a starting price of Rs 14.73 lakh when it was introduced at the Auto Expo. With improved characteristics, the new MG Hector became a more formidable opponent for Harrier and Safari.
The ADAS with Harrier and Safari is only one of the new features that Tata Motors has gone ahead and unveiled. Customers do not need to wait for the facelift versions because these are accessible with the current model. Facelift versions, however, are anticipated to include some extra goodies, particularly in terms of their appearance and aesthetics. Later this year, facelifts for the Harrier and Safari will be released.
2024 Tata Safari Spied
Due to the fact that the present Harrier and Safari models have already had a wide range of changes, the facelift versions will mostly concentrate on their aesthetics. It’s anticipated that several design cues from the Harrier EV concept, which was revealed at the 2023 Auto Fair, will be used. The front fascia of the electric equivalent has undergone considerable alterations from the ICE-Harrier.
The grille, air intake, and bumper have all been updated. Housing for the headlamps and foglamps has been entirely updated. A LED light bar now seamlessly connects the LED DRLs at the top. Adding to the side profile are some new sporty alloy wheels.
The SUV has sharp taillights with a connecting LED light strip at the back. Tata Safari and Harrier facelift models might potentially get some new colour options.
The 2024 Harrier and Safari facelift will maintain the current selection of features. A new 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto with a new 7-inch digital TFT instrument cluster, a wireless charger, Type A and Type C USB chargers in every row, and 200+ voice commands in six languages are all included in the upgraded equipment list. Additional notable features include front ventilated seats, an air purifier, and a 6-way powered driver seat with memory and welcome features.
New Powertrains
A new 1.5-liter, 4-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine will be a significant improvement for the 2024 Harrier and Safari facelifts. It produces 280 Nm of maximum torque and 170 PS of maximum power. It is anticipated that both manual and automatic transmission choices would be available.
The 2.0-liter turbo diesel engine in the Harrier and Safari will remain the same. It produces 350 Nm of maximum torque and 170 PS of maximum power. Both a 6-speed manual and 6-speed automatic transmission are available. The next-generation multi-drive modes of the diesel powertrain make it simple to maneuver across difficult terrain.
