Is the new Tata Safari 2021 worth investing in, or is there a better rival in the same price bracket?
18 April 2025 02:00

The Tata Safari 2021-2023 is a strong contender in its segment, offering a powerful Kryotec 2.0 L Turbocharged Engine with 167.67bhp@3750rpm and 350Nm@1750-2500rpm of torque, along with the option of manual and automatic transmissions. It boasts advanced features such as a 9-speaker JBL sound system, ventilated seats, and a 10.4-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The Safari also comes with robust safety features including ABS, dual airbags, and automatic climate control. However, in the same price bracket, rivals like the Mahindra XUV700 and the Hyundai Alcazar offer similar or slightly better specifications, such as more advanced safety features like Level 2 ADAS in the XUV700, and a more spacious interior in the Alcazar. Therefore, while the Tata Safari is a solid choice, it is worth comparing these options to determine the best fit based on individual preferences and needs.

I like the Tata Safari and want to buy it, however, I’m a slacker when it comes to maintenance. Will it be a suitable vehicle for me? I’ve heard it requires frequent service and maintenance.
18 April 2025 01:45
The Tata Safari, while a reliable and robust vehicle, does require regular maintenance to ensure its longevity and optimal performance. It needs servicing at intervals of 15,000 kilometers or 12 months, whichever comes first, with estimated service costs ranging from Rs. 13,389 to Rs. 14,991 per service. Over a 5-year period, the total estimated maintenance cost is approximately Rs. 68,547. Given your tendency to be a slacker with maintenance, it might be challenging to keep up with these scheduled services, which are crucial for minimizing wear and tear, and avoiding unnecessary breakdowns. However, if you are willing to commit to regular servicing, the Tata Safari offers excellent performance, comfort, and reliability, making it a worthwhile investment.
Is the new Tata Safari 2021 simply an updated version of the Tata Harrier?
18 April 2025 01:45
The new Tata Safari 2021 is not simply an updated version of the Tata Harrier, although it shares many similarities. Both vehicles use the same 1956 cc diesel engine producing 168 bhp, and they have the same transmission options. However, the Safari is 63mm longer and 80mm taller than the Harrier, accommodating a third row of seats, which significantly enhances its practicality and utility. The Safari also features additional amenities such as an 8.8-inch floating island infotainment system, iRA connected tech, 3rd-row AC vents, and disc brakes on all four wheels. While the Harrier has a slightly better power-to-weight ratio due to its lower kerb weight, the Safari offers more headroom and legroom for the third-row occupants, making it a distinct and more feature-loaded option.

The choice between the Toyota Fortuner, Jeep Meridian, and Tata Safari depends on several factors, including your priorities in terms of performance, comfort, safety, and budget. **Performance:** - The Toyota Fortuner, especially the diesel variant, stands out with its 2.8L engine producing 201.15 bhp and 500 Nm of torque, making it a powerful option for both on-road and off-road driving. - The Jeep Meridian offers a 2.0L turbo-diesel engine with 168 bhp and 350 Nm of torque, which is respectable but less powerful than the Fortuner. - The Tata Safari comes with a 2.0L turbo-diesel engine producing 168 bhp and 350 Nm of torque, similar to the Meridian. **Comfort and Features:** - The Toyota Fortuner is known for its luxurious interior, featuring ventilated seats, an 11-speaker JBL sound system, and advanced convenience features like wireless charging and a hands-free tailgate. - The Jeep Meridian offers a comfortable and feature-rich interior, including a 10.25-inch touchscreen, panoramic sunroof, and advanced safety features, but it may not match the Fortuner's luxury feel. - The Tata Safari provides a spacious and comfortable cabin with features like a 8.8-inch touchscreen, panoramic sunroof, and semi-digital instrument cluster, but it lacks some of the premium touches of the Fortuner. **Safety:** - All three vehicles come with robust safety features, but the Toyota Fortuner stands out with its 7 airbags, Vehicle Stability Control , Hill Assist Control , and Traction Control System . - The Jeep Meridian and Tata Safari also offer multiple airbags, ABS with EBD, and other safety features, but the Fortuner's comprehensive safety package is particularly noteworthy. **Budget:** - The Toyota Fortuner is generally the most expensive option, priced between Rs. 35.37 lakh and Rs. 51.94 lakh. - The Jeep Meridian and Tata Safari are more budget-friendly, with prices starting from around Rs. 29 lakh and Rs. 15 lakh respectively, though the top variants can approach the lower end of the Fortuner's price range.

26 December 2024 10:01

What is the Tata Safari’s build quality like relative to its competitors?
26 December 2024 10:01

Is the Tata Safari a reliable long term car?
26 December 2024 10:01
I’d say Safari reliability is middle of the pack relative to what it’s up against. It wasn't the worst, but it wasn't the best. Over the years you will probably have a few issues but nothing catastrophic.
Does the Tata Safari actually have an ADAS system?

So how do you compare the off road capability of the Tata Safari to its name?

Is the design of Tata Safari Storme being upgraded to look like Land Rover?
28 December 2022 13:10
Tata Safari Storme has a resembling design to the Land Rover and that is only because both the companies are under TATA group. They are using mild customization's to their Safari Storme, making it look more aggressive and attractive. The differences will always stay up as they cannot alter the width of Safari Strome and also the 2.2 L turbodiesel engine cannot compete to the V6 and V8 of a Land Rover. Also the price difference would be quiet high between both the cars, making Safari Storme not a rival of its senior SUV's. Using the Land Rover style may bring more sales to the Safari.
