The Harrier SUV was introduced by Tata Motors in 2019 and has since gotten a positive response from Indian SUV purchasers. The Tata Harrier ended up being a successful model for the Indian automaker. The colour options, variations, and features of the Harrier SUV are regularly updated by the brand. The Harrier only has a diesel engine option right now, but with the update, it might also acquire a petrol engine option. Upcoming Tata Harrier Petrol appears to be in the works at Tata Motors, according to numerous online reports.
The upcoming facelift's launch date has not yet been disclosed. More features and design modifications are coming. Although it is now just rumour, a significant expectation for the facelift is the inclusion of a petrol engine. Here are the few things that we know so far about the upcoming Tata Harrier Petrol.
Engine Specifications
The 1.5-liter turbocharged petrol engine, which will be the retuned 1.2-liter Revotron engine with an additional cylinder, is anticipated to power the Harrier petrol if Tata does indeed bring it to market. An output of about 150 bhp is predicted from the turbocharged engine. Numerous driving modes and automatic transmission are anticipated for the petrol engine. At present, the diesel engine provides 170 bhp of power and comes mated with a manual and automatic transmission.
Design & Dimensions
The overall silhouette of the petrol variant will be same, but it may get exterior updates along with the facelift. The facelift may include revised front grille, front lights, DRLs, bumpers, and other adjustments. The SUV is anticipated to include newly designed alloy wheels and taillamps. The dimensions of the upcoming variant will be similar to the diesel variant.
Features
The inclusion of ADAS is one of the key feature updates anticipated for the upcoming Harrier. Tata may potentially include a larger touchscreen infotainment system and a fully digital instrument cluster in addition to this. With the makeover, Tata Motors may also add additional features such as wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as ventilated seats. To enhance the ride quality and comfort, Tata may also tune the suspension setup.
Pricing and Launch
It is not yet known when the Harrier facelift and the fuel version will be released. Although the company has been quiet about the release, a test mule for the updated Harrier has been seen, hinting that the makeover could arrive by the end of the year or in the first half of 2023. If we talk about the pricing the Harrier petrol, it is expected to be less expensive than the diesel variants.
