Tata Safari with a 2.2L DiCOR engine that produces a power output of 140 PS and a maximum torque of 320 Nm. The car now gets in straight competition with the Scorpio 2.2L CRDe, Ford Endeavor, and to some extent Toyota Innova. The Tata’s new styling cues shall also be following up in th new Sumo that shall soon be unveiled somewhere later.
The newness of the car is clearly visible. New headlight clusters, new grille with a chrome line running in between, new bumper guards and spare wheel cover with some chrome on it. We Indians love chrome, don’t we and Tata’s given it so. The Safari is one of the few cars (SUV) in India that have a great stance look. The new car just enhances the feeling. The car’s redesigned body parts say it all. The car looks much better and more aggressive in looks. Tata has worked on the interiors too, and the car now comes with two tone beige interiors and leather seats.
The car as said before comes with a 32 Bit Electronically Controlled, 2.2 L 16 Valve DOHC VTT DiCOR engine, (VTT for Variable Turbine Technology and DiCOR for Direct Injection Common Rail), producing a max power output of 140 PS @ 4000 rpm and a max torque of 320Nm @ 1700-2700 rpm.
