Tata Safari Left Front Three Quarter

Why would I buy it?

  • Road presence
  • Improved cabin design
  • New-age features

Why would I avoid it?

  • ADAS available only in higher variants
  • No AWD on offer

What is it?

This is the 2023 avatar of the Tata Safari . Though it’s a facelifted model, it gets changes that make it look like a concept and more upmarket than its predecessor. It’s got a new face with a single grille, which is quite unique with accents that match the exterior body colour on this version. The connected LED bar gets a welcome feature, while the new squared-off headlamp housings on the re-sculpted bumper further help in differentiating it from the earlier model.

The new 19-inch wheels look nice and sturdy with their design similar to the Sierra concept’s wheels showcased at this year's Auto Expo. Then, the rear section has been updated with tweaked taillamps and a new LED bar that boasts the welcome and goodbye animation in line with the front. Besides, there's a faux skid plate on the redesigned bumper with vertically stacked reflectors and reverse light housing. The question is, is the 2023 Safari better than the previous model?

Is the cabin of the 2023 Safari any good?

Although the interior has also been revamped, the design remains more or less the same. The most prominent update is the new steering wheel with an illuminated Tata logo that we saw on the new Nexon. It’s worth mentioning that the carmaker incorporated our critical feedback from last time, regarding the odd placement of the horn and the extra effort to use it. This time, it has been repositioned towards the centre, and is sensitive to inputs, unlike our previous experience.

Another change inside the new Safari is in the form of touch controls for the AC. Other crucial updates on the dashboard include a 12.3-inch infotainment screen and a fully digital instrument cluster. The latter is replete with a chunk of information including ADAS. Plus, it gets readable fonts, is fast to respond, and is highly customisable. The same is the case with the touchscreen with its clean UI and quick responses, though there’s no haptic feedback or any knobs for quick control.

The seating layout remains unchanged, with good space inside in all rows. However, a major improvement which makes the interior feel more upmarket is the better quality of materials used for the upholstery, dashboard, door pads, and most areas. Nothing feels cheap or out of place, and it still is robust in nature. Also, the Safari was known for its boss mode, and it continues to be, with a laid-back seating style but now with added power adjustments. Besides, the seats get adjustable headrests, thus elevating comfort. To further add to the delight, there are ventilated seats in both rows. This is going to be a boon in our hot and humid climate.

Even in terms of safety, Tata has tried to go a step further. For example, six airbags are standard across all variants/personas, but now, its top-spec version gets an additional driver’s knee airbag as well. Moreover, the Safari gets a 360-degree camera and ADAS, which includes new features like adaptive cruise control and stop-n-go, high beam assist, lane change alert, and lane departure warning. Then, there’s door open alert, traffic sign recognition, blind-spot detection, and rear cross-traffic alert, among other features. The other crucial ones include rear collision warning, forward collision warning, and even autonomous emergency braking which worked efficiently. It also gets disc brakes all around.

Lest we forget, the Safari gets a new e-call feature for assistance in case of emergencies. The breakdown call intimates the roadside assistance service at the touch of a button. Other noteworthy tech appeals that worked effortlessly include the new TFT cluster, terrain mode selector with TFT screen, audio controls paired with Alexa, powered tailgate opening, and the connected car experience. Lastly, whether you chose the six- or seven-seater version, every persona — from the entry-level Smart to the top-spec Accomplished+ — offers a good variation in exterior colour options and material choices too.

Is the 2023 Safari nice to drive?

The facelifted Safari continues to be powered by the same 2.0-litre Kryotec diesel engine mated to a six-speed manual or a six-speed torque converter automatic unit. This motor is BS6 Phase 2-compliant and is tuned to produce 168bhp and 350Nm of peak torque. This, paired with the automatic, still works perfectly well. And if the new segment-first E-shifter (shift by wire) tech is to go by, the experience has only improved. The shifts still feel quick, smooth, and more importantly, in sync with the engine’s characteristics and how it puts the power down. There’s enough torque to pull from slower speeds and the gearbox’s instant response, whether to shift up or down, makes things feel good. One can use the new paddle shifters too, which respond well and make the driving experience quite engaging.

As was the case before, the Eco, City, and Sport modes liven up the driving experience with responsive throttle inputs. It has sufficient load-carrying and people-hauling capabilities, be it in the city or on the highway. It even manages to overtake without any effort despite being a big burly vehicle. This Tata SUV stays planted and stable at triple-digit speeds. Although it is bigger and heavier than the Harrier, its performance isn’t dull. Moreover, the terrain mode selector helps alter the response through the software maps and works efficiently like before. Still, some off-road enthusiasts will point out that AWD would have made the SUV more capable in hilly regions and slippery conditions. But from our experience, for the most part, it will tackle trails and rough terrain with poise.

On the ride and handling front, the Safari continues to tower over broken roads, potholes, ruts, etc. with its high ground clearance, tall stance, and well-balanced suspension. So, be it low-speed bump absorption or high-speed thuds, occupants won’t feel unsettled and there’s not much noise heard inside. Its robust nature and build outshines, of course, with the Land Rover DNA in its underpinnings.

The heavier hydraulic steering was a cause of concern for some old Safari owners, and it has been taken care of by the new electronic power steering. It does feel lighter at lower speeds but manages to add that weight as the speed builds up, as seen in the Sport mode too. The ADAS doesn’t feel intrusive and manages to guide if the car is veering off the marked lanes. On the braking front too, the all-discs continue to provide good stopping power and are well tuned to the emergency automatic braking system. It worked as seamlessly as the adaptive cruise control, which functioned at the touch of a command.

Should you buy the 2023 Safari?

With plenty of body colours to choose from, including the dual-tone option, which is a first in this segment, and with many new features, Tata Motors wants to ensure that the new Safari appeals to a wider audience. With its macho appearance, it still can be a symbol of authority while offering a premium and spacious cabin. Moreover, prospective buyers get new technology and added connectivity, while cocooned in safety. The pricing isn’t available yet, but if Tata Motors doesn’t ask for an unreasonable premium, it will be easy for a buyer to decide, as the 2023 Safari is indeed quite appealing with the new changes.

The review of this 2023 Facelift Safari cannot begin without a mention about the flag-off! Are you wondering why? Well it was indeed special… breaking glass ceilings, the black and white chequered flags were held by confident bevy of beauties clad in vibrant yellow Tata Motors t-shirts…It was a moment of pride and joy … as much theirs as was ours…. after all this massive macho beauty that we set out to drive was the product of their months of hard work. Well, signs of changing times you would say and nothing highlights it more than the evolution of the ‘Safari’ after the popular Tata moniker made a come back a few years ago…

The 2023 Facelift Safari is no doubt a reflection of changing customer trends. The decided push towards connected tech and safety is clear but the question is how well this face-lift version balances between overall drive experience and the plethora of features that abound the vehicle. 

tata safari ground clearance 2023

What’s striking about the exterior design of Tata Safari 2023

On the outside, the silhouettes of the Safari broadly remains the same but there are some striking and interesting additions. The parametric grille with body coloured foils adds to the swanky, sophisticated appeal and surely gives a vehicle a  new look with a touch of vibrancy. 

MG Comet EV review

The end-to-end DRLs with signature welcome and goodbye animation is once again something you cannot miss even in a rush as is the bifurcated lights with the ‘Safari’ badging standing out in the middle. The doors too showcase the Safari badging prominently.

tata safari ground clearance 2023

The ground clearance of the vehicle continues to be a big plus for the Indian roads and coupled with silver skid plates and 19-inch alloy wheels it sure accentuates the sporty feel. The rear-end of the Safari continues to have that unmistakable extended roof design. The end to end led tail lamps compliment the front design and ties in the whole uber-connected appeal seamlessly. 

However the showstopper here is decidedly the gesture-controlled power tailgate that makes opening and closing the boot a lot easier, especially if you happen to be carrying a lot of things. On a lighter note, if you are missing out on some ankle exercise, this is your chance to master it and get work done at the same time. But it sure comes in as a handy addition to the overall package. 

The swanky interior

tata safari ground clearance 2023

You sure have to hop inside the facelift 2023 Safari to truly appreciate the highpoints of this iteration of Safari.  Multi-colour mood lights synced to music notes and notification attract attention while adding to the plush and luxurious feel that the overall facelift targets to achieve. 

The multi-screen instrument cluster and the Harman infotainment centre is significantly wider than before. It  is loaded with features including

-ADAS with 11 features 

-Dual zone fully automatic temperature control

-Remote access to the car

-Alexa Car to Home

-Voice Commands including Alexa supporting 250+ commands in 6 languages 

The voice-controlled panoramic sunroof is the new poster boy of features aimed at wowing customers and the Safari ain’t wanting in any which way. The multiple light and music modes sure make it even more appealing. 

tata safari ground clearance 2023

The touch based Central control panel with multi functions, steering wheel with signature ‘Illuminated Logo’, steering mounted paddle shifters and 360-degree surround view system are other interesting additions, not to forget the pin-striped wood panelling on the dashboard .

However what absolutely appeals to me while riving through crowded roads on hot afternoon and humid evening is the air curtains in the front to optimise airflow as well as separate ventilators for every row. The ventilated captain seats in the second row as well as the first row is another welcome addition and truly boosts comfort. The other interesting feature is the control to move the co-passenger seat on the sides. That enables even those in the second row to adjust leg space as per their need. The separate chargings pods in every row also shows attention to details in the Indian context while travelling with family.

The seats definitely need a mention-  ergonomic and with the right kind of thigh support, making your journey as comfortable as you can expect. 

Safety focus 

One of the key showcase features in this new Safari is the advanced ESP with 17 functionalities. Apart from the mandatory 6 airbags, it comes with an additional seventh one for the driver’s knees. Height adjusted seatbelt, Hill hold control and Emergency call options are among the other additional features. 

The ADAS also enables side view when the left or right signals are switched on. The 360 degree camera does give a clear view of the blind spot but the driver’s attention is diverted between the console and the road.. Perhaps a little thought into how much is too much is worth probing into. 

tata safari ground clearance 2023

Now coming to the most interesting part of the journey- the actual drive after you have digested the tech offensive. Well, no surprises here. You are driving the Safari with the same 170 hp Kryotec 2.0 -itre four-cylinder diesel engine with the same 6-speed manual and automatic transmission. Well if that’s on your buy list, the automatic version is the one to go with. Though the vehicle responds well when the pedal does hit the metal, you are in for a noisy ride no doubt. But that’s only a teething issue… the effortless pickup with which the engine brings the rather heavy vehicle to speed is still the best part of the deal. The suspension is a bit firm and perhaps it’s the large size of the vehicle that accounts for it. But all in all, a comfortable drive, be it the crowded city roads or the outskirts where the road condition is significantly bad. The tough Tata build, especially, the Land Rover DNA in the Safari’s core build and structure does come through. 

tata safari ground clearance 2023

The Verdict

Now addressing the elephant in the room- should you buy it or would you skip it? Well, the Version 2023 is no doubt plush, sophisticated and absolutely in sync with the modern customer’s tech heavy focus. Though not comparable to its original 4×4 avatar, this comfortable three-row vehicle is a great family car for the Indian buyers and the attention to details in terms of customer safety and comfort is a big plus in this facelift version. A smoother, safer and sleeker Safari to drive home in for sure.

  • Tata Safari Facelift Review: New Avatar Of The Flagship SUV

Story

  • The new Tata Safari facelift has received major updates inside-out
  • The SUV is a lot more feature-packed now and get advanced tech
  • The Safari Facelift will be launched in India on October 17, 2023

Twenty-five years is a long time – and if you are an early millennial like me, back in 1998 you were just about in your teenage, and in awe of this sensation called the Tata Safari . Now I am closer to my mid-life crisis and a large, in-your-face SUV is just what the doctor has prescribed, but in the last 25 years, the Safari too has evolved. This child prodigy that we all fell in love with has also come of age. So, I spent a day with the new Safari to figure out how this facelifted version fits the needs of someone looking to buy an SUV, today.

tata safari ground clearance 2023

The Safari has moved on from the angry look; that is just the Harrier now. Tata with this facelift has created more distinction between the two SUVs. While the Harrier continues to get horizontal and angular lines, the Safari has more vertical elements. What this has ensured is that instead of looking like a fighter about to enter the ring, the Safari now carries itself with the charm of an army officer! 

Also Read: Tata Harrier Facelift Review

tata safari ground clearance 2023

In terms of design updates, this now gets a full-width LED bar with welcome and goodbye animation. While I am not a big fan of this new trend, to be honest, it does look nice on the Safari. The profile is more or less the same, but the new 19-inch alloys are very cool looking and fill up the wheel wells nicely. 

As for the rear, the LED taillights also get a connected pattern, in line with the Safari’s design theme with vertical lines. Having said that, the rear isn’t the most appealing angle to look at the safari; the design makes it look a little smaller than it is.

tata safari ground clearance 2023

I like the way the new Safari looks – sophisticated! One of the key reasons for that is also the choice of colours – the Cosmic Gold that I drove is quite unique, I am also keen on looking at the Supernova Copper and Lunar Slate.

tata safari ground clearance 2023

At first glance, the inside looks very different from the earlier model. Though the layout is very much the same, to ensure that the SUV feels more premium Tata has played with the styling. The dashboard gets faux wood inlays with a pinstripe pattern, which helps in creating this upmarket image. And I think it looks particularly nice.

tata safari ground clearance 2023

Although a bit gimmicky, the new steering, with the illuminated Tata logo, does get its fair share of attention and the infotainment system is a 12.3-inch unit on this top-end Accomplished persona. The instrument cluster is also big, 10.25-inch to be precise, with many customisation options. The Safari also gets a piano black panel for capacitive buttons for AC and other in-car controls, along with a rotary dial with a built-in screen for the terrain modes.

tata safari ground clearance 2023

New features on the Safari include a powered tailgate (finally!), a 10-speaker JBL system, 7 airbags, wireless charger dual-zone AC, and rear sunshades. The system also comes with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, along with JBL modes that allow you to select between different predefined music settings. 

tata safari ground clearance 2023

The space in the car remains unchanged. If you intend to use the Safari as a chauffeur-driven car, then the boss mode at the back is handy. Also, the cooled seats at the back are a very valuable feature that not many in the market offer at this point. The third row is for children and has its own storage pockets, air vents and charging points with USB and type-C ports. 

Performance

tata safari ground clearance 2023

There is no change to the powertrain of the Safari. It runs on the same 2.0-litre diesel motor that makes 168 bhp and 350 Nm of torque. The key updates here are the paddle shifters and the switch to electric power steering, which make driving this relatively large SUV easier.

tata safari ground clearance 2023

In city mode, it lacks bottom-end, this though can be quickly addressed by the use of paddle shifters or Sport mode. There are a few tweaks to the suspension as well and the ride is marginally better than before, not that it was ever too bad!

tata safari ground clearance 2023

While overall I like the way Safari drives, I am not a big fan of the ADAS for everyday usage. It feels intrusive and the cabin is always ringing with one alert or another, since driving sense in our chaotic cities is abysmal. 

tata safari ground clearance 2023

On the highway, though it is a different story, with the adaptive cruise control, expressway driving becomes a lot easier.  

With the ground clearance and the torque, some amount of soft-roading too is easy for the Safari. For those still looking for AWD, I think the wait will continue at least till 2025.

tata safari ground clearance 2023

Safety and Variant Details

Six airbags are standard across all five personas of the Safari. The base is the Smart Persona which comes with 17-inch alloys and 6 airbags. The Pure Persona gets a touchscreen infotainment system with 6 speakers, Android Auto, Apple Carplay and a reverse parking camera. 

Also Read: Tata Safari Facelift: Variants Explained

tata safari ground clearance 2023

The Adventure Persona above it, gets 18-inch wheels, 360-degree view cameras for parking and optional ADAS which is not updated to offer adaptive cruise control. The top-end Fearless and Dark persona gets 19-inch alloys, a bigger display and a music system along with 7 airbags. 

tata safari ground clearance 2023

For the ones looking at the Safari as an answer to their midlife crisis, they will have to look somewhere else. Without the AWD, the Safari is not a toy. This is a serious car for a mature buyer. For someone looking for a 6- and 7-seater family car with solid features, modern tech like ADAS, decent space and acceptable safety, the Tata Safari makes a very compelling case. Prices for the SUV will be announced on October 17, 2023, and I think a premium of Rs. 50,000 to Rs. 1 lakh, depending on the variant, would be a reasonable ask.

2021 Tata Safari Ground Clearance, Boot Space, Dimensions and Tyre Size (1)

  • 22 February 2021
  • By Saransh Goyal

2021 Tata Safari is a 7-seater SUV that sits above the Harrier in Tata’s lineup. This article will give you a perspective of its ground clearance, boot space and dimensions (Length, Width, Height & Wheelbase).

2021 Tata Safari

What Are The Dimensions Of 2021 Tata Safari?

The third-gen Safari is 4661mm long, 1894mm wide and 1786mm tall. It not the longest (Hector Plus is 4720mm long) but the widest and the tallest SUV in its class. It is 63mm longer and 80mm taller than the Harrier while the width has remained unchanged. Its extra width and height should result in better headroom and shoulder room for the second and third row of occupants. The Safari has a wheelbase of 2741mm which is identical to that of the Harrier but 9mm less than its arch-rival, MG Hector Plus. The wheelbase is the distance between the centre of the front and rear wheels. A longer wheelbase usually results in better legroom. 

What Is The Boot Space Of 2021 Tata Safari?

The Tata Safari has a boot space of just 73 litres with all three rows up. It can be increased up to 910 litres by folding second and third-row seats.

What Is The Ground Clearance Of 2021 Tata Safari?

The ground clearance of 2021 Tata Safar is 205. However, it should be enough for your everyday use and those weekend adventures since it is based on the Harrier. The Safari rides on 235/60 R18 tyres which are a size bigger than the Harrier’s 235/65 R17 units. Higher ground clearance is very important on Indian roads as it makes it easier to go over tall speed breakers or drive on broken roads without scraping and damaging the car’s underbody.
