Is the Tata Harrier the hype, or just another overhyped Indian SUV?

Question

Since its launch, Tata Harrier has been quite the sensation in the Indian automotive market. Designed attractively, with enough space in the interior and loaded with sophisticated features, it is seen as a premium SUV offering from an Indian manufacturer. But its overall quality, reliability and after sales service has been mixed. Having a commanding road presence and a comfortable ride some of the owners swear by it while others aren't quite so happy about recurring issues and bad service experiences. The debate over the Harrier's value proposition is hot: with some touting it as a game changer for the Indian auto industry and others arguing that it is just riding on patriotic sentiment and clever marketing. As potential buyers weigh their options in the competitive SUV segment, the question remains: Should you be considering the Tata Harrier instead of other choices in the market?

I honestly don’t think the Harrier is overhyped. It looks great, has a ton of features, but the quality issues are a deal breaker for me. I’ve heard too many horror stories about electronics failing and bad service experiences. If you are paying the same, you get a more reliable Korean or Japanese SUV.

I’ve had a Harrier for two years now and I can say, it’s definitely worth the hype. It has unmatched road presence and is a champ at handling Indian roads. There were some early niggles, but Tata has been on the ball to rectify these. It’s not perfect, but if you’re looking for a big, comfortable SUV it’s a pretty good choice.

I test drove the Harrier and its competitors, and it's a mixed bag. In ride quality, space and overall refinement, the Harrier is a winner, but it does lag behind some rivals. That really depends on what your priorities are. If you like a tough build and don’t mind the rough edges, go for it. If you’re looking for a more polished experience look elsewhere.

I don’t think it’s overhyped. Indian manufacturers take a huge leap forward with the Harrier. Is it perfect? No. It's competing with global brands at a much lower price point. The fact that we are even comparing it to established players shows how far Tata has come.

Varun · Answer

The truth is, the Harrier is catching the 'Made in India' wave. It's a decent car, nothing revolutionary there. Its strongest point is the design, but overall package is just average. I like to stick with a tried and true brand that has better long term reliability and resale value.
