Reclaim Your Life With Safari Storme..!!!

Exterior I owned a Safari Dicor EX before & i am comparing Safari Storme with it's previous version Safari Dicor.. My Storme is of Astern Black colour & my previous Dicor was of Pearl White colour.. Very attractive & better than before with good quality fittings.. Chrome has been used extensively.. Now the SUV resembles like a foreign SUV.. The side step is attractive now with good quality fibre fittings & not rubber pastings like before in Dicor.. The spare wheel is placed under the body so that the body sound is compromised.. Also the 4 door & bunker door weight has been reduced drastically.. The door closing sound is much more softer & pleasant now than before.. Good thought by the Tata Engineers.. The engine compartment is also compact than before.. Good quality wiper has been used in Storme..

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Less features & simple.. Tata has kept things simple so that problems don't arise with electronics aftermath.. Interiors are better finished with good quality fittings.. Now one doesn't feel that he is boarded inside a Tata made SUV.. Best in class space & comfort like before but now there is no sideways movement of the passenger in running or broken road condition which was there before in Safari Dicor... 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox  Silent engine than Safari Dicor... 138 bhp now which was 142bhp before in Dicor but the power has not decreased in terms of the body weight of Storme which is lighter than Dicor.. Fuel economy has increased a bit as Storme weighs amost 75 Kgs less than Dicor.. Gear is easy to reach, short & softer than before but now vibration can be felt in the gear which was not there in Dicor..

 

Ride Quality & Handling    Smoother than Dicor.. Turning radius is better with 5.4m which was 6m before in Dicor.. Now driving in city traffic is much more easier.. Steering wheel is softer than before with rack & pinion steering.. So be careful while taking a turn in corners & reduce speed as the speed too has increased in Storme.. Care should be taken to match the speed as per the turn or otherwise possibility of the car being cap-sized cannot be ruled out.. As now Storme comes with Xenon projector lights, night visibility & during rain, visibility has improved than before.. No need of extra lights as was required in Dicor.. When the full beam is put on, both the full beam bulb & the dipper projector light is put on simultaneously which immensely increases the visibility whereas in Dicor only the full beam bulb is put on & the dipper bulb goes off which makes night visibility as well as visibility during heavy traffic & rainy conditions very very poor..

 

Final Words   Overall better than Dicor & Safari is Safari after all.. No SUV can take it's place(Fortuner, Endeavour, Captiva, Rexton, Prado & Pajero don't come in comparision).. 

 

Areas of improvement  Still to find out as i have purchased the car recently & have driven only 700 Kms so far.. But will surely put up a fresh review when i drive some more of this amazing Tata made SUV.. Really i am a proud owner of Tata Safari Storme..!!!
