Customers eagerly awaiting the 2023 Tata Harrier can expect a longer wait
As the launch date for the facelifted Tata Harrier draws near, anticipation among SUV enthusiasts is reaching its peak. The updated Harrier, set to make its debut on October 17, 2023, has garnered immense interest, leading to a surge in demand for the current version. This surge has consequently extended the waiting period for the existing Harrier model, making it up to six weeks in some cases.
The Tata Harrier, first introduced to the Indian market in 2017, has captured the hearts of many SUV aficionados. This year, the vehicle received a well-received update, enhancing its appeal. However, with the imminent launch of the 2023 Tata Harrier facelift, potential buyers are keenly waiting for a glimpse of the latest enhancements.
The current Harrier SUV is available in a diverse range of seven variants, including XE, XM, XMS, XT+, XZ, XZ+, and XZA+(O), with prices starting at a competitive Rs. 15.20 lakh (ex-showroom). Depending on the chosen variant, buyers will experience a waiting period ranging from four to six weeks, calculated from the date of booking. This period may vary based on factors like the specific variant, color preference, and the dealership.
Mechanically, the pre-facelift Tata Harrier boasts a robust 2.0-litre Kryotec diesel engine, delivering an impressive 168bhp and 350Nm of peak torque. This engine is expertly paired with either a six-speed manual transmission or an automatic torque converter unit, offering versatile driving options to suit different preferences.
Interestingly, the highly-regarded 2.0-liter Kryotec diesel engine powering the current Tata Harrier will be retained in the forthcoming Tata Harrier and Safari facelifts. This engine, already celebrated for its performance and reliability, will continue to delight drivers with its powerful capabilities.
The heightened waiting period for the existing Tata Harrier is a testament to the model’s enduring popularity and the excitement surrounding the upcoming facelift. The Tata Harrier is set to define a new chapter in the Indian SUV landscape with its blend of style, performance, and innovative features. As the automotive world eagerly awaits the debut of the 2023 Tata Harrier, SUV enthusiasts are counting down the days to experience the next level of automotive excellence.
