The Safari will be available in six variants - XE, XM, XT, XT+, XZ and XZ+. The base XE variant comes with all four-wheel disc brakes, rollover mitigation, dual airbags, ABS with EBD, electronic stability program with hill hold control and thus making it safer from the start. It will only come in a 6-speed manual version. The low-end torque is good in this one.
Moving further towards the XM variant then it is available with all the features from the XE and continuing on the multi-drive modes and the touchscreen unit. The XT variant offers the panoramic sunroof, iRA connectivity, automatic climate control and 18-inch alloy wheels.
The XZ variant comes with a larger 8.8-inch touchscreen infotainment unit, signature 18-inch alloy wheels, xenon HID projector headlights, terrain response modes, electronic parking brake with auto hold, 9 JBL speakers and a sunroof for a better sound experience.
The new Safari is an overall package after all but it misses out on the 4x4 which used to come before. Tata claims that this Omega Arc platform is more than ready for the 4x4 mode and if the demand persists then they might launch the 4x4 also.
