Drove the2.2 VTT Safari beast. Looks. Comfort. Big and feels very powerful.Brakes? Pitch and Yaw. Turbo Lag in 2nd Gear. Highly Squashy gear box.

 

So this is my story...

I tell you the conclusion first . If you have money never go for safari. and if you dont go for it and be prepared to spend 60000 an year that is again value for money. when you add 8.5 lacs + 60k X 5 years 3 lacs comes to 11.5 lacs again cheaper than 18 lacs that you pay. So again it is a bargain accpeting the fact that the safary will stay in garage every 6 months for atleast 15 days for lack of spares  (very expensive spares).

 

Exterior I purchased this machine coz it was value for money. 2.2 dicor never liked the exterior. but price price and good suspension. The colour catches bubbles in very first month (silver colour), The plastic crash guard  losses shine in first summer heat , in 1 month the colour started showng bubbles, noise starts popping from doors. Automatic windos (2 out of 4) failed in very first month. I could repair only one rear window after hectic efforts and paying 4000 . now it is 5 year of operation and drive window is still not working .

yesssssssss... head light catches moisture very first rain and fortune says we will replace when new arrives then they say warranty expired. I could see every alternate safary with moisture in head light. Tata is doing nothing. Winder not available if available it is louzy.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) I will not comment about internal handles, 2 of them failed in very 3 rd month. Now i request copassengers to be very polite with them (door handles) Seats absolutely worst . possibly tata is not aware or not seen the world class toyota or maruti seats. (but itna paise me yahi milata hai... how can I forget this slogan hahah).

Front panel console lighter doors ashtray doors ..abslotely cheap and are BROKEN always.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Now uptill I have discussed not so important issues, now the major issues...

FUEL injectors: My God! one fine morning the car just did not start... (2.5 years), Towed to the fortune cars nerul. let me be specific... They told me that the fuel injectors have failed, after 8 days and a visit by the fuel injector manufacturer singineer LUCAS.

Cost: 12000 each total 4, labour some thing more total repair cost 60000, 20 days in garage...

No fault of mine, I have never seen a car with failed fuel injector so early, I am still wondering why did they fail, If any body knows then please update my knowledge. Next I must tell you how much you need for suspension overhaul whooping 45000/-

Rear shock absorbers not changed. just bushes and one front shock absorber availability after 10 days.

Work quality: satisfactory.

 

Ohh how could I forget clutch plate (3rd year) whooping 15000/- availability as usual 10 days...

I could see atleast 3 customers waiting for clutch plate with safaries in the show room. specifically fortune cars nerul.

 

Ride Quality & Handling It is good, let me confess...

but again worst after sales, worst epensive, ok ignored the cost, but availability, you dont even get a simple fuel meter or door handle replaced before 1 month, glass winder, years together, and no good fitters.

 

Final Words If you have money and want the machine to be with you every day. Never go for safary.

And you should rather go for mahindra. My god the ride quality of mahindra not good but very reliable and again cheaper spares, well they seldom fail and they are available too.

Reliability on road is 80 percent. It always failed while I was nearby I guess I was lucky.

 

Verdict: Never buy a safary.

 

Areas of improvement Many... let me give list

1) seats.

2) sturdy front console.

3) glass winders (they are louzy just the right word).

4) ingine fuel injectors, you never know when and why they fail.

5) clutch plate mechanism.

6 ) head lamps need urgent attention related to moisture.

 

good suspension,low price that is all but it is forgotten after an year.part worn off very fast , automatic windows fail in 6 months, spares shit expensive and not availabl

 

Exterior Macho and the Scorpio is also overshadowed,the LX,EX,GX and VX(All variants)get ORVM Turn Indicators.Also the tailgate is good looking,unlike the SantaFe which has a MUV-ish tailgate.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interiors are futuristic,are solid but CD/MP3 Player looks like the dealer has fitted one plus confusing a bit.But it gets lots of Features,including powered mirrors,ABS,Alloys and even AUX-in port.The GX BS-IV gets no Airbags like the VX but it is fully loaded.Space is great,even roomy cabin. More roomy than bigger Aria!!!! And the Innova.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Engine is great,even is fuel efficient

Scorpio-18 KPL

Innova-14 KPL

Aria-15 KPL

Xylo-17 KPL

Safari-20 KPL

Captiva-16 KPL

Endeavour-15.56 KPL

Grand Vitara-7 KPL

Even the gear is great.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Great,sporty handling.

 

Final Words GX Safari BS-IV-22 Nov 2010 Model-Walnut Gold Colour.The Safari is fuel efficient and feature packaged. The ABS is effective.

 

Areas of improvement CD player can be improved.It looks like the dealer has fitted one.And the design is poor of the CD player but great sound quality. 

 

Features,Looks,Price,Performance,Interior DesignNothing,Because Base Variants Also Get ORVM Turn Indicators

Hi Readers,
I own Safari VX 4 x 2 DICOR bought brand new from the show room 6 months back, I bought this vehicle keeping in mind Tata and the price criteria but after a month I realised that was the worst decision I did as the handling of the vehicle on higways is very poor, break down are quite often as my vehicle was in the service centre under warranty repair due to some manufacturing fault and when I told them the break down are so often then there is some serious problem with the vehicle and I told them to replace or return my money as after every 15 days you will find something or the other problem in the vehicle but the people at tata motors told that this is not their policy and they did not do any thing, so in my view putting is 1 or 2 lac extra and buy a vehicle which is reliable and tension free.

Thanks for reading.
nothing good about this vehiclehandling poor, safety god knows, breakdown quite often, too noisy from inside

riding experience,well maintained suv and also service and maintenance cons tata parts not easily available any where it is so bulky vehicle but so smooth in hard condition all round development

Exterior very good

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) normal

Final Words cycle kharido par ye na kharido(naam bade or darshan choto)

Areas of improvement  servicing speacialy autolink rama road, new delhi

THEY CHARGE EVERY THING BUT DO NOTHING (COUGHT RED HANDED ON THE SPOT)

The servicing of all the tata authorised dealer is very baad. one time there is some problem is come in my a.c. i go to service station. they repair my a.c. in three times in a month but they cannot solve my problem and the service station manager say it is a gift from  tata for puchasing a tata motor vechicle. in the end i repair my car a.c.  from unauthorised dealer. so my suggustion to all the new car buyer is that u will purchase a cycle but don"t purchase car from tata motors basicaly tata is truck manufacturer they dont have to make car. they dont have any idea to how to make car the basic thing in india which is necessary in indian car is  a.c. but they have no mind how to make main basic need. 

looksa.c. perfomance

Exterior

 Good design, but poor sheet metal & work  and rusting may occur even in desert dry climate.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Very basic and unfortunately there is no one in the market to upgrade the interiors, they all want to work on Innovas!

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Gem of an engine though fuel pump problems will give engine rpm fluctuations as aearly as 40 k kms. Fuel eco -city 11-12 / highway 14-15.  gearbox is rubbery.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Its actually like , as I read somewhere else also, being in a boat. Soft ride, rolls accordingly but paasenegers dont complain. Just dont brake hard ! it might go any where with brakes biting diffrently on each wheel.

Final Words

 Best looking SUV , ...still ! will i buy it again, probably yes but first i will set up a garage where i can remove all its short comings , one at a time...patiently.

Areas of improvement  

 Have loads. will reply on query.

 

Good PricePoor workamanship

Exterior: Excellent look nothing can beat it.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): Interiors requires imporvement, space is Good enough & is comfortable. The doors are little noisy. 

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox: There is a problem in injector, they are not able to filter the fuel properly and gets blocked and the authorized service station keeps the vehicle for around one week that means you are without vehicle. Nobody is there to entertain you, you keep runnning from pillar to post they will take their own sweet time and even if you complaint to their customenr service at toll free number again they good for nothing. They are just there to attend the phone and not to solve your problem, I dont know TATA people are giving salary to these people and wasting there money.

 

Ride Quality & Handling: Very Gud

 

Final Words: Response and after sales service needs imporvement.  

 

Areas of improvement: After Sales service requires 100% improvement. I have seen max authorized service centers who are not at all interested in customers. 

 

 

Gud look, less jerks, comfortable, king of road.interiors can be improved, injector problem,noise in doors which irritates.
