Pros & Cons

Pros
  • More modern looks with the new LED DRLs and other design changes with the facelift
  • It now offers more features such as 12-inch infotainment, dual-zone climate control, surround-view camera, and more
  • The safety features have been increased with ADAS level 2. The car now has up to 7 airbags and a 5-star GNCAP safety rating, among other improvements.
  • The inclusion of electric power steering improved the ride quality and handling.
  • The automatic transmission now comes with an e-Shifter to ensure smooth gearshifts
  • Big design gives a solid road presence
  • The Safari is the only SUV in the segment to offer rear-seat ventilation
  • Tata Safari now comes with a good level of NVH
  • More practical family car with 5-door configuration as compared to Thar & Gurkha
  • The interior offers decent space for 4-adults and some small luggage
  • The retro-modern design looks good and the striking colour options make it a head-turner.
  • The lightweight and small dimensions make it easy to manoeuvre
  • The car offers many features. Such as a 9-inch touchscreen, wireless connectivity, LED headlamps, cruise control, and headlamp washer.
  • The 4X4 hardware is standard across all trims
  • The 1.5-litre NA K15B engine is fuel efficient. It also comes with the option of a smooth torque converter automatic transmission.
  • Many safety features are available. These include 6 airbags, traction control, hill-hold and hill descent control, 3-point seatbelts for all, brake-based limited-slip differential, and ESP.
Cons
  • The only available powertrain is diesel; there is no petrol or turbo-petrol engine.
  • The Safari does not come with a 4WD drivetrain while some competitors offer 4WD as an option
  • Occasionally, the infotainment software exhibits lag and may cease functioning
  • The dimensions remain mostly unchanged from the pre-facelift model. This leads to a cramped feel in the last row.
  • Tata's after-sales support falls short of expectations
  • The top models seem overpriced, reaching an on-road price approaching Rs 30 lakh
  • The 1.5-liter NA petrol engine with 103 bhp power isn't as enjoyable to drive as the engines in the Thar and Gurkha.
  • The small size doesn't give it a tough off-roader look
  • The steering isn't light; it feels firm
  • The 5-speed manual transmission has a heavy clutch
  • The footwell area is a bit cramped; tall drivers might find it uncomfortable
  • Strictly a 4-seater; fitting a 5th passenger will be difficult
  • It lacks some features like LED DRLs, TPMS, and auto wipers, among others
  • There's limited storage inside the cabin, and the boot space is only suitable for small bags

      This car is very good and looks absolutely beautiful. It delivers wonderful performance with smooth and comfortable driving. Safety features are reliable, and the fuel consumption is impressively efficient. All available colors look great, and the car runs exceptionally well.

      Tata Safari, manual or automatic personally, I think the manual is the best choice. It has the best safety features in its segment. It comes with 3 driving modes and offers the best suspension for both off-road and on-road driving. The sound quality is awesome, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. You can install aftermarket LED lights if you like, but avoid making major modifications if you want to keep the car in good condition for a long time. Make sure to get timely DEF checks so the engine doesn’t get overloaded. If you want the best, top-class car in its segment, the one and only option is Tata Safari. Just wow! And its first look is absolutely stunning.
