Both the Tata Harrier and Safari SUVs now get the 1.5-litre Hyperion turbo-petrol engine, which recently debuted in the Sierra SUV. The motor produces an identical 168 hp and 280 Nm of torque output in both SUVs and also

Buyers will be able to get the petrol engine in all 11 variants of the Harrier and Safari, including the #DARK editions. However, the STEALTH Edition SUVs will not be offering the turbo-petrol yet. Tata Motors has also added four new top-end variants to the Safari lineup and two new top-end variants to the Harrier lineup with the option of the petrol engine.

Another key addition to the Harrier and Safari SUV duo, is the 'Theatre Maax' cabin experience suite. This includes the 14.5-inch Samsung QLED infotainment touchscreen, Dolby Atmos sound signature, a 10-speaker JBL audio system and the Arcade App Suite.

While the prices for the Harrier and Safari petrol have not been announced yet, the Harrier petrol has been launched first and can be expected to be priced Rs 50,000 to Rs 80,000 cheaper than the diesel. This would bring its starting price to approximately Rs 13 lakh and pre-bookings for the Harrier petrol are currently live online. The Safari petrol prices will come out on a later date, however, the price difference can be expected to be around the same range as the Harrier. With this latest move, Tata Motors has moved into the D-segment petrol powered SUV segment with both a 5-seater and 7-seater option.
