Godfather of all Suv

Great driving experience, with great stability, great comfort while riding, while driving safari you wont feel tired because of the great seating comfort, applicable for long trips also.

Low price better comfort for Indian travelers

Ertiga car was good for mileage maintenance and excellent for middle-class people with big family ..it was more comfortable us to seat and travel all together. So it is better to use a battery-saver and super comfort car.

2023 Tata Safari First Drive Review

By Ninad Ambre15 Oct 2023

With plenty of body colour options, even a dual-tone as 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 are being offered new technology, and added connectivity, while still being 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 confirm his decision for it is quite appealing with the new changes.
