Exterior The Design though for safari storme remains same in the refreshed 2015 version as it earlier versions,except for the front honey comb grill in front and Storme embrossed with black colour on the Aluminiunm strip gives it a premium look.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The interior of this safari is definately a changed one, with beige interiors giving way to java black interiors with central watch also gone. Steering mounted controls and a good system by Harman Connectnext, though doubledin and touch screen is must in this segiment of vehicle and is missing in safari, hope TATA may work on it.
Safari is known for its comfort, and yes its very comfortable seating position, Driver seems to be in full control of vehicle, 2nd row seats have a better leg room than Scorpio, however the last row jump seats are very unconfortable for elders, though have seen that kids enjoy sitting on it,but for long distance driving surely not recommended.Ample space in vehicle,Means I packed my back row to top while travelling to Ladhak. Door are big enough to hold 2 lts of bottle.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Tata has worked to get away with the faults in engine of the earlier storme, and with 2yrs of gold mtnce at 22k is a good deal for 2 years, which covers every issue of the car. Engine sound is almost negligible in cabin, though wen u switch off the engine of storme,be prepared to be shaken due to the vibrations that extend to the gear lever. Overall a nice remapped engine with 150 PS and 360 NM torque.(EX version) VX is coming with 400nm and 156 Ps of power.
Ride Quality & Handling Simply one word AWESOME Ride quality and easy handling, u won't even feel like u r driving a monster size vehicle.
Final Words A person driving safari, will never be able to purchase any oyher car I m sure about it. Its far better than all other vehicles which claim to be SUV but fail to meet the basic "ladder on Frame" demand for being an SUV. Owing SUV is really a matter of pride and this vehicle has a great road presence.
Areas of improvement People have been complianing about the TATA support in some cities and fed up with the noise rattling of doors, means these r not that big issues. TATA should be more senstive in B citiies towards its customers.
