The much anticipated, all-new
Tata Safari has been launched in India, with introductory prices starting at Rs 14.69 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). Tata had begun
accepting bookings for its new flagship SUV earlier this month, with the booking amount set at Rs 30,000.
The Safari shares its platform with the Harrier, though it is longer and taller.
It comes with a 170hp, 2.0-litre turbo-diesel engine.
It is offered in 7 trim levels - XE, XM, XT, XT+, XZ, XZ+ and Adventure Edition.
Tata has also introduced a Safari Adventure Edition priced from Rs 20.20 lakh, which adds a number of cosmetic changes inside and out, including an exclusive new blue colour called Tropical Mist. The 18-inch alloy wheels get a blacked-out look, as do the triangluar element on the front grille and the roof rails. The interior gets a brown and white finish, rather than the standard model's black and white one.
