Tata Safari Variants

Smart

The base model of the Tata Safari is called "Smart," and it costs Rs 15.49 lakh (ex-showroom) for the 6-speed manual gearbox. If we consider Delhi, the on-road price of this trim will reach Rs 19.86 lakh. Additionally, there is only one engine on offer, a 2.0L turbocharged diesel that produces 170 PS and 350 Nm of torque. Now, let's look at the features Tata has provided in their base variant.

Smart (0)

This is the second variant of the Tata Safari, and it adds features to the Smart variant, such as connected LED DRLs and connected LED tail lamps. If we talk about its price, the Smart (0) costs Rs 16.69 lakh (ex-showroom), and the on-road price in Delhi will bring its final cost to Rs 19.86 lakh. Let's take a look at the extra features you get over the Smart variant.

One important thing to note is that there are only two paint options available with the Smart variants: Lunar Slate and Stellar Frost.

Pure

The second variant of the Tata Safari is Pure, which has some important feature updates over the Smart, though they are quite minor. These updates will be appreciated by people who prefer a minimalistic-looking SUV. The ex-showroom price of the Pure manual variant is Rs 17.69 lakh, and the on-road price in New Delhi is Rs 21 lakh. Let's check out the list of features Tata adds over the Smart (0).

Pure (0)

The fourth variant of the Tata Safari is the Pure Optional, which costs Rs 18.19 lakh. It offers a tyre pressure monitoring system, central armrest, and rear washer/wiper. The on-road price of the Pure Optional is Rs 21.60 lakh in New Delhi. Let's check out the list of features Tata adds over the Pure.

Pure Plus

From here, Tata starts adding some luxurious features that make it feel like a modern SUV. The Pure Plus costs Rs 19.39 lakh (ex-showroom), and from this variant onwards, customers have the option to choose a 6-speed automatic transmission, making it one of the most demanded variants of the Tata Safari. Let's take a look at the features over the Pure (0).

Pure Plus S

The only differences between the Pure Plus and Pure Plus S are the voice-assisted panoramic sunroof, automatic headlamps, and rain-sensing wipers. The Pure Plus S costs Rs 20.39 lakh (ex-showroom), and the on-road price in Delhi will be Rs 24 lakh. Additionally, the automatic version is priced at Rs 21.79 lakh.

Pure Plus S #Dark

You must have heard about the Dark Edition of Tata cars, and this is just an all-black extension of the Pure Plus S. Here, all-black elements take over the Safari, which elevates the sporty aesthetics of this vehicle. Apart from exterior updates, the interior is also all black. The ex-showroom price of the manual variant is Rs 20.69 lakh, and the automatic variant is priced at Rs 22.09 lakh.

Adventure

Before that, Tata had provided every major feature, and with the Adventure variant, they are focusing more on the exterior of the Safari. In this variant, you get four bold paint options: Supernova Copper, Stellar Frost, Stardust Ash, and Galactic Sapphire. Additionally, you get 18-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels, which make it look more rugged than ever.

The ex-showroom price of the manual version is Rs 20.99 lakh, and there is no automatic gearbox available in the Adventure trim.

Adventure Plus

Now, there is an option for automatic transmission along with the manual, plus features such as a 360-camera, electronic parking brake, air purifier, and paddle shifters (for the automatic transmission) are available. The price for the manual transmission is Rs 22.49 lakh, while the automatic costs Rs 23.89 lakh. Let's check out the additional features you get over the Adventure trim.

Adventure Plus #Dark

Another Dark Edition, but this one is loaded with features. It includes 19-inch black alloy wheels and a Blackstone interior theme. The ex-showroom price is Rs 23.04 lakh, while the automatic version costs Rs 24.44 lakh.

Adventure Plus A

So, A here stands for ADAS (Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems), and Tata has included 11 key safety features in this variant. The manual transmission costs Rs 23.49 lakh, while the automatic transmission costs Rs 24.89 lakh.

Accomplished

Now, we have entered the final variant of the Tata Safari, and from here, the top personality starts. This one is a proper luxury vehicle and is the only one featured in brochures or on the official site. It offers some first-in-segment features, and like the Adventure trim, it is also available in four colors: Cosmic Gold, Stellar Frost, Stardust Ash, and Galactic Sapphire.

A dual-tone option is also available. The ex-showroom price is Rs 23.99 lakh, and Rs 25.39 lakh for the automatic variant.

Accomplished #Dark

"This is the third Dark Edition in the variants list. It costs Rs 24.34 lakh with the manual option and Rs 25.74 lakh with the 6-speed automatic."

Accomplished Plus

This is the apex model in the variant lineup, and there is also a Dark Edition of this model. It includes ADAS Level 2, connected car technology, 10 JBL speakers, and emergency call and breakdown call assist. The ex-showroom price for the manual transmission is Rs 25.49 lakh, and for the automatic, it is Rs 26.89 lakh. Additionally, there is a 6-seater option with captain seats in the second row, which costs Rs 26.99 lakh ex-showroom.

Accomplished Plus Dark

This is the fourth Dark Edition, and it costs Rs 25.84 lakh ex-showroom for the 6-speed manual gearbox, and Rs 27.24 lakh for the 6-speed automatic. The most expensive variant in the Tata Safari lineup is the Accomplished Plus Dark Edition 6-seater automatic, which costs Rs 27.34 lakh.

Which Variant Offers The Most Value?

In my opinion, the most value-for-money variant is the Adventure Plus, which costs Rs 23.89 lakh ex-showroom. It includes all the essential and luxurious features one would expect from a premium SUV like the Safari. Here you get a voice-assisted panoramic sunroof, 360-camera, auto headlamps, electronic parking brake, and much more.

The Adventure Plus is the most value-for-money option because the Adventure variant doesn't offer an automatic transmission. The 6-speed manual gearbox in such a large car may not provide enough comfort for city driving.
