How do Tata Harrier Dark Edition’s rivals do long road trips?

by @ashutosh.kumaralmost 2 years ago0 views7 answers
The SUV market has been paying attention to the Tata Harrier Dark Edition, it's got a bold look and a strong build. But it’s where it performs on longer journeys that really matter. A long road trip shows a vehicle's strengths and weaknesses that short city drives never will. All of that comfort over hours of driving, fuel efficiency on highways, cabin noise levels at high speeds, and how effective things like cruise control are. Moreover, the Dark Edition's own trim and feature details may vary what it’s like to drive. How does the Harrier cope with long distances over varied road conditions? Does the dark interior theme cause any problems with heat or glare on day long drives? Potential buyers who are looking for an SUV with road trip capability will find some useful comparisons of these aspects to other SUVs in the same class.

It could be better at noise insulation. Wind noise is noticeable at high speeds, and on long journeys can get tiring. It’s not a deal breaker, but something Tata could do better.

The Harrier is great on road trips, with one thing I love about it being the massive boot space. I don’t have to worry about space constraints because I can pack everything I need. That's a real advantage over smaller SUVs.

The Harrier’s cruise control is a godsend in the great expanse of long drives. It’s very smooth, and you don’t get fatigued as quickly. But I wish it had adaptive cruise control like that of some of its competitors.

Having driven the Harrier and the MG Hector on long trips, I’d say the Harrier has an edge in terms of stability at high speeds. And it just feels more planted on the highway.

It does heat up quite a bit in summer road trips, however. Turning on the AC affected fuel economy and I had to crank up the AC. If you live in a hot climate, this is something to consider.

It's OK, but not great. Fuel efficiency on highways is a tad disappointing compared to some rivals. On a cross country trip I found myself stopping for fuel more than I prefer.

Last month I took my Harrier Dark Edition on a 1000km trip and it was actually very comfortable. The cushion action of the seats, and ride quality are smooth. Long drives definitely beat my friend's Hyundai Creta.
