Tata Safari

Tata Safari is a beautiful off-roader, available as of now in seven colors, two of them in dual-tone.

What’s New in Safari?

The interiors have changed; dark graphite & beige dual tone theme bolstered by dark graphite & perforated tan leather upholstery all these trimmed in wood. The outer rear-view mirrors (OVRMs) and the full chrome grill reflect the persona, the OVRMs doing it quite literally. Redefined instrument cluster makes it easy for you to track how the Tata Safari is doing at any given point of time.

The Safari Specsifications:

As is usual for Tata cars, Safari too has a leveraged personalization. LX, EX, GX and the VX, four variants in all have been loaded with different features and amenities to meet different budgets, and preferences. While all are 4x2 drives, Tata Safari VX BS4 alone is the choice if you want a 4x4 drive.

However, the power train is same for all. A 2.2 L DOHC VTT DiCor diesel engine pumps out 140 PS at 4000 rpm through 16 valves and develops a 320Nm torque between 1700-2700 rpm. Effortless switch through the gears is provided by the G-76-, 5/4.1 synchromesh-with-overdrive type gearbox.

Suspension is something not all non-professional drivers appreciate; it is after all hidden away underneath. The passengers of course, can always feel that special smoother rides, over quality suspension. Independent double wishbone with torsion bar front suspension working in tandem with a 5-link coil-spring-reinforced with a rear one cushions the Tata Safari passengers. Height-adjustable power steering is made-to-order for those longer drives.

There are also side impact bars protecting against sidewise collision. You can use different knobs and negotiate different conditions - 4H for the snow-covered roads and 4L for sandy surfaces. Safari’s dual airbags self-inflate within 40 milliseconds. For an unobstructed rear-view while reversing, there is a weatherproof camera in the luxury model. There are alerts if the doors are not closed fully or the seatbelts are not locked properly.

Tata Price, Warranty, and Mileage:

Earlier of 2 years or 75,000 KMs warranty, extendable for 2+1 years and lengthy 1,50,000 KMs is an attraction for Tata Safari owners.
