Tata introduces the all-new 2021 Safari SUV

Tata dealers in India are now accepting orders for the second-generation Safari. This new SUV is built on the brand’s OMEGARC architecture, which is derived from Land Rover’s D8 monocoque platform. The current Discovery Sport and Range Rover Evoque are therefore closely related.

The Safari’s styling combines xenon headlights, LED daytime running lights, a distinctive stepped roof, flared arches, and 18” alloy wheels.

Both six- and seven-seat interior layouts are being offered. The spacious third row isn’t just for occasional use, and passengers sat there even get their own air conditioning outlets, reading lamps and a USB socket. Carefully selected materials – such as perforated leather for the upholstery – are intended to create a premium ambiance.

For an even more striking look, customers can opt for an Adventure version. For its exterior, Tropical Mist paintwork is complemented by Piano Black trim pieces and a Charcoal Grey finish on the wheels and skid plates. Inside, an Earthy Brown colour scheme incorporates Dark Chrome accents.

For instance, the infotainment facilities can include satellite navigation, Bluetooth, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay and a nine-speaker JBL Audio set-up. Display is taken care of by a central 8.8” ‘Floating Island’ high resolution touchscreen plus a linked 7” TFT instrument cluster.

In addition, Intelligent Real Time Assist (iRA) telematics provide extra security features, location-based services, remote commands, vehicle diagnostics and over-the-air updates.
