The Tata Safari is powered by a 2.0-litre Kryotec diesel engine producing 170 PS and 350 Nm of torque. It is available with a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic transmission. The engine is tuned for strong low-end torque, making the Safari well suited for highway cruising and carrying full loads of passengers.
In real-world conditions, the Safari delivers around 14–16 kmpl depending on driving style and transmission. Performance focuses on smooth acceleration rather than quick sprints, with steady power delivery that feels confident on highways and relaxed during city drives.
Inside, the Safari offers a spacious three-row cabin with supportive seats and generous legroom in the first two rows. Higher variants feature a large touchscreen infotainment system, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, ventilated front seats, panoramic sunroof, dual-zone climate control, and a fully digital instrument cluster. Ride quality remains comfortable even on uneven roads.
Safety equipment includes six airbags as standard, ABS with EBD, electronic stability control, hill hold assist, rear parking sensors, ISOFIX child-seat mounts, and a 360-degree camera on higher trims. Advanced driver assistance features are also available on select variants.
The Safari’s large dimensions translate into excellent cabin space. Ground clearance stands at 205 mm, helping it handle rough roads with ease. Boot space measures 420 litres with the third row folded, making it practical for long trips and airport runs.
Key highlights include ventilated front seats, panoramic sunroof, 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, 360-degree camera, and JBL premium sound system.
