Is the Tata Safari a worthy purchase at the hefty price tag?

No way, man. You are asking for trouble spending 30+ lakhs on a Tata. At that price point, you’re better off going for a Toyota or even a base Fortuner. At least you know you're going to get reliability.

If you are looking for a uniquely Indian SUV experience, I think it is worth it. There is character to the Safari that you just don’t get with other brands. On top of that, Tata have really upped their game in terms of features and design.

It's a tough call. The quality issues are a real concern, but the Safari looks great and has some cool features. If you're a die hard Tata fan and willing to put up with the headaches, I'd say it's only worth it.

I am honestly quite sure it is overpriced. If you want to spend that kind of money, you could get a much more reliable and proven SUV. On paper, the Safari might look good, but the real world experience seems to be hit or miss.

It depends, I would say, on what you value. The Safari delivers if you want the latest tech and want a spacious interior. If long term reliability is your primary concern, though, you might want to look elsewhere.
What is the Tata Safari’s build quality like relative to its competitors?
26 December 2024 10:01
So far, I’ve seen the build quality of the Safari's vary. There are some units that seem rock solid, but there are other units with weird panel gaps and rattles. That's not up to par with the Germans.

Tata's done a decent job with the Safari, I think. Overall it feels pretty solid and the interior materials are a huge step up from their older models. It's not perfect, but it’s competitive.
What is the Tata Safari’s build quality like relative to its competitors?

I would say the Safari falls short compared to something like the XUV700. It seems Mahindra has better consistency in build quality among their units.
What is the Tata Safari’s build quality like relative to its competitors?

As far as an owner, the build quality is good, not great. It’s not perfect, but there are some minor issues here and there, nothing that’s going to break the deal. I feel it’s on par with other Indian brands.
What is the Tata Safari’s build quality like relative to its competitors?

The exterior build feels solid but them interior quality is what it loses points. It’s let down in comparison to rivals by things like inconsistent panel fitment and some cheap plastics.
Is the Tata Safari a reliable long term car?
26 December 2024 10:01
From my experience with other Tata cars, I wouldn’t put money on the Safari being super reliable in the long run. They've got better, but they're not up to Toyota level yet.
Is the Tata Safari a reliable long term car?

Honestly, it’s too early to tell. It's not been long enough with the current gen to really judge long term reliability. Tata has been working hard to improve, so it may surprise us.
Is the Tata Safari a reliable long term car?
26 December 2024 10:01
I've owned my Safari for a year now and it has been pretty good. Just a couple of minor niggles nothing major. I believe if you take care of it, it should last just fine.
Is the Tata Safari a reliable long term car?
26 December 2024 10:01
It's a mixed bag, according to the owner forums I've seen. There are some people with zero issues, and others who’ve been in and out of the service center. It's a gamble.
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?
26 December 2024 10:01
I've tried Safari's ADAS, which is good, but not great. On highways it's okay, but in city traffic it gets confused. Better than nothing, I guess.
Does the Tata Safari actually have an ADAS system?
26 December 2024 10:01
I honestly think it’s more hype than substance. Lane keep assist is pretty aggressive, adaptive cruise control is hit or miss. Systems from more experienced brands are not as refined.
Does the Tata Safari actually have an ADAS system?
26 December 2024 10:01
It's not bad for a first attempt from Tata. The Germans have certainly got a long way to go, but it's a step in the right direction. After a few years, I'd bet it'll be better.
Does the Tata Safari actually have an ADAS system?
26 December 2024 10:01
I actually rather like the ADAS in my Safari. It's not perfect but it's helped a lot on long drives. You’ll be fine, just don’t rely on it 100%.
Does the Tata Safari actually have an ADAS system?
26 December 2024 10:01
The Safari is okay, but the ADAS wouldn’t be enough to buy it. These feel like features that Tata rushed to add to keep up with the competition and they’re not fully worked out.
