Tata Safari Facelift Spied With ADAS Features

Tata’s flagship SUV, the Safari, is due for an update in 2023. Recently, it has been spotted again wearing camouflage. The SUV has been doing good sales numbers since its launch last year. However, the arrival of the Mahindra XUV700 and Scorpio N means increased competition in the 7-seater SUV segment. And both models offer a more extensive feature list than the Safari. To tackle that, Tata will be showcasing the Safari Facelift at the Delhi Auto Expo 2023.

The spy shots also reveal a radar module located on the front bumper for ADAS functionality.

Tata Motors will be adding a host of new features to the interior of the Safari Facelift. The SUV will get a larger touchscreen infotainment system with inbuilt Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, an updated instrument console, panoramic sunroof, wireless charging, dual-zone climate control, ventilated front seats, a 360-degree camera and more.The premium SUV will also come with ADAS tech like Blind-Spot Monitoring, Lane-Keep Assist, Emergency Auto Braking, and Rear Traffic Alerts.
