Once those details have been submitted, the customer will receive a confirmation for the test drive. They will receive a callback from the Tata Motors’ Customer Care team who will help them schedule the test drive.

 The Harrier, built on the OMEGARC architecture, derived from Land Rover's legendary D8 platform, and based on Tata Motors’ IMPACT 2.0 design language, is the perfect combination of stunning design and excellent performance. Powered by the cutting-edge Kryotec 2.0 Diesel engine and Advanced Terrain Response Modes, Harrier assures an exhilarating performance on the toughest of terrains.
