Tata Motors is considering launching the Tata Harrier XTA and XTA+ automatic transmission models in the coming future. It must be noted that the Tata Harrier is one of the promising SUVs present in the market that garnered a lot of sales with its second version launched last year and then came in the Dark and Camo editions to further improve sales.
Currently, Tata Harrier offers automatic transmission in XZ and XZ+ but with the introduction of the clutch free gearbox in XT and XT+, Harrier will become a value for money SUV. Both these mid-variants, XT and XT+ offer a VFM quotient to the buyers.
The launch of Tata Harrier XTA and XTA+ is expected this month itself and with this, the prices will be up by a good Rs 1.30 lakh. Currently, both the XT and XT+ have been priced at Rs 16.88 lakh and Rs 17.68 lakh, ex-showroom, Delhi. Both the versions are also available with Dark and Camo editions too.
