About

The Tata Safari Storme VX 4x4 is built on a hydroformed X2 chassis, which is significantly stiffer and lighter than its predecessors ladder frame. This chassis, combined with a 2.2-litre VariCor engine producing 140 PS and 320 Nm of torque, makes the Storme a capable and refined SUV. The vehicle features a comfortable and spacious cabin with good legroom, especially in the front and second rows, though the third row is less practical. The 4x4 system includes a low range and limited-slip differential, making it adept at handling various terrains. With features like ABS, remote locking, and an audio system with Bluetooth connectivity, the Storme is well-equipped for both daily driving and off-road adventures. Its ground clearance of 200mm and generous boot space add to its versatility, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a robust and comfortable SUV for long-distance travel and mild off-roading.

Our take on this /// Verdict

The Tata Safari Storme VX 4x4 is a significant improvement over its predecessor, offering a refined, well-equipped, and better-built package. The vehicle boasts excellent seat comfort, particularly in the front and second rows, although the third row is less comfortable and more suited for short journeys. The 2.2-litre VariCor engine provides a quiet and refined driving experience, with a punchy mid-range that makes it an excellent long-distance cruiser. However, its weight and lack of low-end torque can make it feel lethargic off the line. The 4x4 system is robust and capable, handling medium to difficult off-road sections with ease, especially in the 4L mode. Despite some drawbacks like road-biased tyres and limited headlamp reach, the Storme excels in its role as a comfortable and capable SUV for both on-road and mild off-road adventures.

Price

The Tata Safari Storme VX 4x4 was priced competitively in the Indian market. The ex-showroom price for the top-end VX 4x4 variant started at around Rs 12.5 lakh, while the fully loaded 4x4 option could go up to Rs 13.7 lakh. On-road prices would typically include additional costs such as registration, insurance, and other local taxes, which could add another Rs 1.5 to Rs 2 lakh, depending on the state and city. Given its comprehensive updates, improved build quality, and feature-rich interior, the Storme offered great value for money, making it a compelling choice in its segment.

Latest Updates

Thursday, 27 April 2017 05:35 AM Tata Motors has been supplying the Indian Army with the Safari Storme 4x4 model, with a contract for 3,192 units. This variant is known for its off-road capabilities and has replaced the Maruti Suzuki Gypsy as the Armys new workhorse. The Safari Storme 4x4 meets the Armys criteria, including a hard top, 800 kg payload capacity, and air conditioning. I think this contract highlights the vehicles robustness and reliability.

Wednesday, 09 December 2015 02:05 PM The Tata Safari Storme VX 4x4 is powered by a 2.2L VARICOR 400 engine, producing 156 PS of power and 400 Nm of torque. This engine is mated with a new six-speed manual gearbox and features a self-adjusting clutch for smooth performance. The 4x4 variant also includes ESOF (electronic shift-on-fly) technology, allowing mode changes on the move. I believe this engine upgrade significantly enhances the vehicles performance and drivability.

Wednesday, 09 December 2015 08:58 AM The Safari Storme VX 4x4 features Tata Motors new integrated CONNECTNEXT Infotainment System by Harman™, which includes a 6-speaker surround sound system and various connectivity options like Bluetooth, CD/MP3/Radio/Aux/USB, and iPod. The system also includes speed-dependent volume control and reverse parking sensor display. This system adds a lot of convenience and entertainment to the driving experience.

Wednesday, 09 December 2015 02:32 PM In terms of safety, the Tata Safari Storme VX 4x4 is equipped with dual SRS airbags, ABS (Anti-lock Braking System), EBD (Electronic Brake Distribution), and a collapsible steering column. It also features crumple zones and side intrusion beams on all four doors, ensuring superior safety. I think these safety features make the vehicle a reliable choice for both on-road and off-road driving.

Wednesday, 09 December 2015 06:31 AM The Safari Storme VX 4x4 has a commanding driving position with a height-adjustable driver’s seat, providing a better all-round view. The vehicle also boasts a ground clearance of 200 mm and a rigid ladder frame chassis, which enhances its load-carrying capabilities and overall robustness. This design makes it well-suited for various driving conditions.

Wednesday, 09 December 2015 06:46 AM The Tata Safari Storme VX 4x4 is available in both 4x2 and 4x4 drive options, with the 4x4 variant priced at around Rs. 14.59 lakhs (ex-showroom New Delhi). The vehicle offers a perfect balance between comfort, handling, and performance, making it a popular choice in the SUV segment. I think the pricing is competitive given the features and capabilities.

Tuesday, 08 December 2015 03:47 PM The Safari Storme VX 4x4 features a Limited Slip Differential (LSD) which enables the vehicle to negotiate any surface with ease. This, combined with the Shift-on-the-fly four-wheel drive system, makes it highly capable off-road. I believe this makes the Safari Storme a great option for those who need a vehicle for both urban and rural use.

Tuesday, 08 December 2015 02:32 PM Tata Motors launched the new Safari Storme VX variant with the VARICOR 400 engine, aiming to enhance the excitement and performance quotient of the vehicle. According to Mr. Mayank Pareek, President of the Passenger Vehicle Business Unit at Tata Motors, this new variant is part of their HORIZONEXT approach to listening to customer feedback and improving the vehicle. I think this shows Tatas commitment to customer satisfaction.

Tuesday, 08 December 2015 10:01 AM The Tata Safari Storme VX 4x4 has an impressive performance profile, achieving 0-100 km/hr in less than 13 seconds. The VARICOR 400 engine, turbocharged with VTT (Variable Turbine Technology), provides easy drivability, swift response, and lower NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness). The fuel efficiency is rated at 13.9 kmpl as per ARAI. I believe this performance makes it a strong contender in the SUV market.

Tuesday, 08 December 2015 11:59 AM The interior of the Safari Storme VX 4x4 is designed to offer maximum space and comfort, with fine materials and well-crafted details. The vehicle features dual air-conditioning for all-round cooling, making long drives comfortable. Additionally, the new signature steering wheel with smart control features and an ergonomic grip adds to the convenience. I think the interior design is a significant improvement over previous models.

Mileage

Thursday, 21 November 2024 10:36 AM The mileage of the Tata Safari Storme VX 4x4 is a crucial factor for potential buyers. In real-world testing, the vehicle managed to return around 10-12 kmpl, with city driving yielding about 10 kmpl and highway driving slightly better at around 12 kmpl. While these figures are acceptable for a heavy and powerful SUV, they do reflect the vehicles weight and engine characteristics. For those concerned about running costs, its essential to consider these mileage figures, but the Stormes overall performance and comfort make it a worthwhile choice despite the moderate fuel efficiency.
