Tata Harrier Gets New OTA Update To Improve ADAS Capabilities

The updated Tata Harrier and the Safari SUVs offered a ton of modern features and the ADAS was one of the most talked about. While it offered a comprehensive suit, it missed out on a few features, like the ones that have just been added via an OTA update to the Harrier. As per Prachit Patil in his post on the Tata Harrier Owners Club Of India Facebook group, the Tata Harrier owner has recently received an over-the-air (OTA) update that introduces Lane Keep Assist (LKA) and Adaptive Steering Assist (ASA) features with improvements to the vehicle's ECU, FCM, and infotainment system as part of the update.

The infotainment system's version 15.18 will display animations and graphics to visualize the LKA and ASA functions in action for a complete and comprehensive addition to the suite. A super the owner, the recent OTA update took roughly an hour to install. Thankfully, Patil reported no errors on the infotainment system or instrument cluster after the update. As the Harrier and its three-row sibling, the Safari, share a similar platform, it's likely the Safari will receive the same update, bringing LKA and ASA functionalities soon to keep it at par with the Harrier.
