Godfather of all Suv

Great driving experience, with great stability, great comfort while riding, while driving safari you wont feel tired because of the great seating comfort, applicable for long trips also.

Extremely Overpriced

If you want comfort in a 5 seater car with good luggage capacity --- Creta/Seltos. --you save 20 lacs. If you want great safety and ride handling good reliable engine -- Harrier/XUV500 -- You save 20 lacs. If you want specific off-roader --- Thar -- save 25lacs If you want good off-roader and lot of luggage space Insane custom options-- upcoming Isuzu VCROSS -- save 15 lacs Exceedingly Overpriced. with the saving on all other options you can drive and maintain them for 10-15 years of ownership. BUT you got money, no one is stopping you. Don't worry about the 7 seater shit no one can sit there for any off-road situation where this car is meant to go. And if you are sitting 7 good luck fitting in your luggage. The saving on the all above cars is much better to deal than the TOYOTA engine. Plus after the merger with Maruthi Suzuki, they have started building some kind of bodies. Build quality has down. So Sad to see such a great brand taking this route for profit destroying all the trust they build over so many years.

2023 Tata Safari First Drive Review

By Ninad Ambre15 Oct 2023

With plenty of body colour options, even a dual-tone as a first in this segment and with many new features, Tata Motors wants to ensure that the new Safari appeals to a wider audience. With its macho appearance, it still can be a symbol of authority while offering a premium and spacious cabin. Moreover, prospective buyers are being offered new technology, and added connectivity, while still being cocooned in safety. The pricing isn’t available yet, but if Tata Motors doesn’t ask for an unreasonable premium, it will be easy for a buyer to confirm his decision for it is quite appealing with the new changes.
