Pros & Cons

D-Max Pros & Cons	Safari Pros & Cons
Pros	Has a powerful diesel engine Looks quite macho Quite good off the road	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
Cons	Latest version has got quite expensive Quite big in size for daily use Small after-sales network	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
