About the Tata Safari

Tata's three-row flagship SUV, from around ₹13.29 lakh — 168 bhp diesel seating six or seven.

The Tata Safari is the brand's three-row flagship SUV, essentially a longer, seven-seat sibling of the Harrier aimed at buyers wanting family-friendly space. Its 2.0-litre diesel engine makes about 168 bhp and 280 Nm, with manual and automatic gearboxes, and a turbo-petrol option in the line-up.

NCAP 5★

The Safari delivers where it matters most: a confident 168 bhp engine, genuinely usable three-row seating, and a solid 5-star NCAP rating with Level 2+ ADAS on higher trims. It's a well-rounded family SUV that punches above its price point, though the FWD-only setup and restricted third row keep it from being a complete package.

Stands out

  • Commanding presence with genuinely spacious three-row cabin for seven
  • Strong 168 bhp diesel and petrol turbo engines with refined power delivery
  • 5-star Bharat NCAP safety rating with six ADAS functions on top trims
  • Top-end luxury touches: panoramic sunroof, ventilated seats, 360 camera, JBL audio
  • Accessible pricing starting at ₹13.4 lakh for a full-size three-row SUV
  • All-disc braking system across the entire range

!Gives us pause

  • Front-wheel drive only; no AWD or 4x4 option despite rugged SUV positioning
  • Third row genuinely suited only for children or occasional short journeys
  • Full ADAS suite limited to higher-spec trims, raising costs significantly
  • Petrol and automatic variants lack published ARAI mileage figures
  • Top variants become expensive once fully optioned
