A very good product killed by poor service and brand image

Exterior

 Huge vehicle. Commanding driving position. Very good paint quality. Panel gaps are huge. Poor but quality. 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 This is a rs.12 lakh plus vehicle. No music system, no infotainment, no 2 din can be fixed. Bare dash board. No features.

Space: Loads of space for 5 pealed.  Jump seats are really useless. Rattling sound will is really killing the driving pleasure

Comfort: Safari is the king in ride comfort. Powerful ac

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Very good performance after 1500 rpm. There is initial turbo lag but not bothering it much. Fuel efficiency is 10.5 in city and 13 in highways with AC. 

 

Ride Quality & Handling

 Very good ride quality.  Don't worry about small potholes and humps. Disk drakes on all 4 weels and abs gives confidence. Low turning radio us is really helpful in city driving.  Body roles at corners at high speed. 

Final Words

 Very good highway cruiser. Very good ride comfort. Lack of features. Poor after sale service.  I am really feeling the heat of bad and irresponsible nature if tty and their dealer. When you have a problem like accident/ damages then getting parts at right time is a very difficult task. Regular free service also steal your one day. Overall: don't buy it if you are not a diehard safari fan. I really regret my decision to buy this product simply due to poor built quality and very bad attitude of Tata Motors and their dealers

Areas of improvement  

 

 

Road presence, ride comfort, loads of spacearrogant dealers, poor after sale service, poor resale value, brand image, practically a 5 seater.
