New Tata Safari In Army-Spec Avatar Looks Ready For Frontline - VIDEO

The Tata Safari was arguably the first vehicle to launch in India which was intended to be more than just a utilitarian vehicle and marketed it as a lifestyle choice. And after over two decades of being in production, Tata finally unveiled the all-new Safari a couple of weeks back. Based on the Harrier, the new Safari looks nothing like its predecessor, but it still carries a strong presence, albeit with more style now. This got us thinking, what if the new Safari was supplied to the Indian army and what it would look like? The army currently is using the older Safari Storme based GS800, and today we have this video which gives an idea of what an army-spec new Safari may look like.

New-gen Tata Safari VS Mahindra Scorpio in a Drag Race - VIDEO

In the video above we can see how a new Tata Safari in army-spec may end up looking like. The first thing you’ll notice is the army foliage green colour-scheme, while the alloys have been replaced with steel wheels for ease of repair if anything goes wrong. Alloy wheels can end up breaking on rough terrain, while steel wheels bend and can be easily mended. There’s a new LED light bar above the windscreen to give better visibility in the dark while all the glass areas have extra steel netting protection. Lastly, to keep communications in a working condition across multiple scenarios, the new Safari gets antennas on the bonnet, front fender, and on the rear fender as well. Overall, this render gives a good idea on what the army may actually get if it procures the new Safari for its fleet.

Surprise! Tata Safari Storme Spotted On Test – But Why?

The Tata Safari is powered by the same powertrain as the Harrier's Fiat-sourced 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder diesel engine that produces 170 PS/350 Nm of peak power and torque figures. The engine comes mated to a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed torque converter automatic gearbox. Tata has started taking bookings for the new Safari, though prices will be only be revealed on February 22, its launch date. It will come at a decent premium over the Harrier which is priced between INR 13.84-20.30 lakh. The new Safari will rival the likes of the MG Hector Plus and upcoming next-gen Mahindra XUV500.

Unique Tata Safari Storme gets upgraded drivetrain and modified suspension setup designed for the the armed forces.

Published On Apr 06, 2018 05:09:00 PM

44,518 Views

About a year ago, Tata Motors had formally signed a contract to supply as many as 3,192 units of Safari Storme to the Indian Armed Forces. As we had reported earlier , the Safari Storme beat its prime rival, the Scorpio to become the choice of general vehicle for the Indian Armed forces. This conclusion was achieved after more than a year of rigorous testing conducted in various terrains across the country. Tata Motors has now officially begun deliveries of the Army-spec Safari Storme SUV.

The new Tata Safari Storme for the Indian army is categorised under the new GS800 (General Service 800) vehicle classification, which subscribes to the basic criteria of a capable hardtop vehicle with air-conditioning and a minimum payload of 800kg.

A new set of images show the Army-spec Tata Safari Storme from all angles. The SUV gets unique matte-green paint and is devoid of its chrome trim in order to avoid any type of reflection. The erstwhile chrome-bits are either painted in the same green shade as the vehicle, or have been blacked out. The vehicle gets special blacked-out lamps on the front and the rear bumpers. It also gets two special, heavy-duty hooks at the back and a unique jerry-can holder on the left rear fender. The alloy wheels are also painted in matte-green, like the rest of the body. Tata Motors had previously clarified that the Safari Storme for the armed forces gets an upgraded drivetrain and a significantly modified suspension setup. The standard vehicle comes with a 2.2­litre diesel engine, which is good for 154hp and 400Nm of torque.

The army wanted to move away from a GS500 (General Service 500kg) platform – which includes the Gypsy – as the need was for a hardtop vehicle with a heavier payload-carrying capacity.

As mentioned before, Tata Motors has begun deliveries to the Army and Navy, which will take place in a phased manner.

According to a report in Financial Express, the Indian Army uses the Tata Safari Storme as the primary vehicle.

The SUV is replacing the ageing Maruti Suzuki Gypsy vehicle as it is not configured to meet the upcoming safety and emission regulations mandated by the Indian Government, the report added.

However, it is reported that the army sought exemption from the regulations, which were approved by the Ministry of Defence.

Following the clearance, the Indian Army ordered 3,051 Gypsy vehicles from car manufacturer Maruti Suzuki.

Here's How The 2021 Tata Safari Could Look Like If It Was Used By The Indian Army Again!

Tata Motors have already created a lot of buzz with the Tata Safari 2021 , an iconic nameplate that has been resurrected for the 7-seater sibling of the Tata Harrier . Tata Motors say that the 7-seater sibling of the Harrier was always conceived as a true successor to the Safari and there are several elements in the design that nod back to the original. The previous generation Tata Safari had also served as a proven workhorse for the Indian Army. If there's any iconic Indian Army vehicle after the Maruti Suzuki Gypsy , it has to be the Tata Safari.

While there's no word if the Indian Army could be using the Tata Safari 2021 as its official vehicle, here we have a rendering of the new Safari of how it could look like if it was actually used as one. The Indian Army used last-gen model’s GS800 rendition as its official vehicle which came with a few modifications to make it an apt vehicle for the Army. Based on that, this new-age Tata Safari 2021 sure looks more than up for the job. In the above image, the army-spec 2021 Safari comes painted in a Foilage Green paint shade, the same that was offered with the older army-spec Safari Storme GS800.

Another major upgrade for the SUV has been the addition of protection for all the glass areas - the front and rear windshields as well as the side glass panes. For improved illumination in the dark, it also comes fitted with an LED bar light on the roof. For supporting the radio equipment army vehicles come fitted with, there's a bunch of antennas fitted on the rear fender along with one on the front fender. Since army vehicles generally have a flag post, there's even a provision for that on the hood. Lastly, the army-spec Safari here comes fitted with steel wheels as as they can bear a lot more abuse.

But here's the thing. While the original Safari was a proper 4x4, the new Safari will be front-wheel driven, at least initially. And that's the only thing holding it back from being a capable army vehicle. Our army vehicles sure need a 4x4 system considering the treacherous terrains they usually tred on.  Tata Motors have however assured that the  Land Rover Discovery -derived D8 platform can be adapted to incorporate a four-wheel-drive system. Tata have said that based on customer feedback and research, they could actually explore the possibility of a 4x4 Safari sometime in the future.

When launched, the new Tata Safari 2021 will be powered by the Harrier's Fiat-sourced 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder diesel engine that produces 168 bhp and 350 Nm of peak torque. The engine will come mated to a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed torque converter automatic gearbox. The new Safari will arrive in showrooms in January itself, and bookings for it will also commence later this month. It will come at a decent premium over the Harrier which is priced between INR 13.84-20.30 lakh and will rival the likes of the  MG Hector Plus  and upcoming  next-gen Mahindra XUV500 .

The Safari has always been known for its presence and mighty demeanour and continues to do the same despite its design being decades old now. It is a spacious vehicle that will take a whole family of five with all their luggage without having to worry about broken roads or bad patches. But it feels too old now especially when compared to its modern competition.

Expert Review on Tata Safari Storme

The Tata Safari Storme has maintained its status as one of the country's most sought-after automobiles for many years. Even the busiest city streets won't be too much for this strong and sturdy SUV; it can handle any terrain, and the ride is comfortable enough for long distances. But what is it about the Safari Storme that makes it so unique? In this article, we will discuss the characteristics of the Safari Storme that set it apart from the competition. There's a lot to like about this automobile, from the fact that it has a robust engine to the fact that its cabin is roomy. If you are thinking about purchasing an SUV, then you should look at the Tata Safari Storme as an option.

How is the Design?

When it comes to Indian sports utility vehicles (SUVs), the Tata Safari Storme represents something of a deviation from the norm. It is not boxy or awkward in any way, and instead has an overall pleasing appearance. The front end is especially beautifully done, with projector headlamps that come with LED daytime running lights and a chrome grille that contains the Tata emblem. Additionally, the daytime running lights can be turned on and off independently. The sides are not particularly complicated, but there are some attractive features, such as roof rails and alloy wheels that are 17 inches in diameter. A roof-mounted spoiler and LED tail lamps may be found in the rear of the vehicle. Overall, it's a really nicely constructed SUV that should be able to hold up well as it gets older.

The design of the Tata Safari Storme is based on that of the Land Rover Freelander. The vehicle was designed by a team of engineers from Tata Motors, JLR and Magna Steyr. The design process involved extensive use of computer-aided design and modelling. The aim was to create a vehicle that would be both practical and stylish. The front chrome polished dual-slat grille meets with the massive drawn-back headlight units, creating an appearance that is either enormous or more substantial when viewed from the side profile. A substantial band made of chrome is positioned right over the front grille, and it bears the word "STORME" embossed in black. The top of the vehicle, known as the bonnet, is level, giving the impression that the SUV is from an earlier era. The fog lights and small air intakes are all part of the same fog lamps assembly that is located on the lower side of the bumper. To tell you the truth, the front windscreen and the plain window frame on the flanks are significant deal breakers. The profile seen from the side is unimpressive; it seems overly cluttered and features a number of wrinkles. The wheel arches are widened, and a side stepper has been installed, both of which are done for the convenience of the passengers.

In addition to this, the placement of the tyres is not correct, and there is a significant space between the wheel arches and the wheels themselves. Tata was unable to improve the appearance of the vehicle's rear end, and it now has a dated appearance. It has a rounded spoiler at the top, a flat boot lid, a pair of unimpressive tail lights, reflectors, and dual chrome finished tail pipes. Despite the many redesigns, Tata was unable to do justice to the rear styling.

How does it perform?

Under the hood of the Safari Storme is a 2.2-liter, 16-valve DOHC VTT VARICOR diesel engine that is capable of 148 horsepower at 4000 revolutions per minute and 320 Nm of torque between 1,700 and 2,700 revolutions per minute. A manual gearbox with five speeds is used to handle the transmission responsibilities of the vehicle. The top-of-the-line model features a four-wheel drive electronic shift on fly mechanism in addition to a restricted slip differential. This option is available. A more potent version of the 2.2-liter diesel engine, branded the VARICOR 400, and producing 154 horsepower and 400 Nm of torque, is offered on the top-of-the-line trim level of the vehicle. The more powerful engine comes in both 2x2 and 4x4 configurations, and it is paired with a brand new manual gearbox that has six speeds.

How’s the Mileage?

The fuel efficiency of the two-wheel drive version is somewhat improved, coming in about 14 kilometers per litre. Although the gasoline engine has a power output that is 9 horsepower more, the diesel engine appears to be more nimble while moving. The Storme can accelerate from a standstill to 100 kilometers per hour in just 15 seconds, despite the fact that it is a hefty vehicle (approximate value).

How’s the Driving Experience?

The Safari Storme is an extremely enjoyable vehicle to pilot. It has a good amount of power and the comfort level is really high. The one and only drawback is that it's a little bit on the expensive side. Nevertheless, if you are searching for a fantastic time behind the wheel, the Safari Storme is an option that you should seriously consider.

How’s its Off-road Capability?

The Tata Safari Storme is an SUV that is made to be sturdy and rough, and it is designed to handle any kind of terrain. Off-road driving might present a variety of obstacles, but thanks to its robust engine, you'll be able to overcome any obstacle you come across. In addition to this, the suspension system was developed to be able to cope with bumpy and uneven terrain. You may feel confident that the Safari Storme will be able to see you safely through whatever journey that you choose to do with it.

What’s the Interior like?

Fortunately for the Storme, the interior is far more tastefully designed than the exterior. The cabin has taken on a more upscale appearance by adopting a darker colour scheme and adding touches of silver throughout. A dynamic four-spoke steering wheel similar to the one seen in the Tata Zest is one of the features that make the cabin stand out. Aside from that, the dashboard has a chic and contemporary design, but the quality of the materials used to construct it is not up to par. A music system, air conditioning vents, and temperature knobs are all included in the center console's silver finish. The floor console has convenient cubby holes built into it for storage purposes. The instrument cluster that sits behind the steering wheel is both spacious and easily readable. There is enough of space for passengers both in the front and in the back, including excellent leg room. There is space in the back of the vehicle for two additional people thanks to the placement of two jump seats. Because of the big glass surface, there a great view, particularly for the driver. When compared to the earlier model, the Storm's cabin now features some updated amenities. The VX top-of-the-line model has a dashboard, center console, and door panels that have a dual-tone finish that is predominantly beige and wooden. The LX and EX models have a dual-tone finish that is predominantly black and silver. Fabric in shades of beige (VX) and gray are used for the seats (LX, EX). Additionally, the steering wheel and gear knob each follow the same pattern of dual combination for their respective trims.

The analogue dials on the instrument cluster are larger than those found on earlier models, and the illumination is bright white. The cluster on the clock that is simple to read is covered in black rims. In addition, the instrument console features a cigarette lighter, AC switches, and a Drive Selector Knob (VX) that allows the user to choose between 4H, 4L, and 2L drive settings. It features air conditioning vents for the occupants in the second row as well as a charging port for mobile devices. When it comes to the amount of space available inside the cabin, the Storme provides a generous amount of both legroom and headroom for all passengers. With roof-mounted air conditioning vents, the dual-tone interior makes the cabin seem more open, larger, and clean than it actually is. The front seats of the SUV can be adjusted in three different ways.

Tech and Infotainment

In this day and age, it is difficult to conceive of existence without the assistance of various forms of technology. Our lives are continuously made simpler and more fun by the abundance of gizmos and gadgets that are constantly surrounding us. The Tata Safari Storme is no different, and it is equipped with a range of different technological and informational capabilities that will keep you engaged and connected even when you are on the road.

The Safari Storme provides you with an automatic temperature control system as well as an adjustable steering column to ensure that you remain comfortable even on the longest of journeys. In addition, there is a built-in four-speaker sound system that provides audio clarity for those individuals who enjoy taking their music with them wherever they go. Therefore, whether you are searching for a vehicle that can keep up with your hectic lifestyle or one that will help you relax while you are on a lengthy road trip, the Tata Safari Storme will not fail to please you. This automobile has everything you need to make every journey an experience to remember, from its sleek and contemporary style to its robust engine and cutting-edge technological features.

Safety Equipment

When it comes to protecting you and your loved ones, the Tata Safari Storme is a family car that comes standard with all of the most cutting-edge safety technology available today. These include child-proof rear door locks, dual front airbags, anti-lock brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution, seat belts with pretensioners and load limiters, engine immobiliser, and more.

Which variant to buy?

There are four different versions of the Tata Safari Storme: the LX, the EX, the VX, and the VX 4x4. The LX model is the entry-level model, and it has a price of 10.19 lakh Indian Rupees (ex-showroom Delhi). Steel wheels measuring 16 inches in diameter are included, as are manually adjusted outside rear view mirrors (ORVMs), fabric upholstery, dual front airbags, and anti-lock brakes (ABS) with electronic brake distribution (EBD).

Which Cars Compete in this Segment?

The Safari Storme has competition from a variety of different vehicles that are similarly positioned within the Indian automobile industry. It is a rival to the Mahindra Scorpio and also the Hyundai Creta in terms of prices. Some would also put the Renault Duster here. However, to be honest, the Mahindra XUV500 and Scorpio are both rivals at various levels of the brand. The Mahindra Scorpio is clearly a more popular option, with its rugged and muscular design, great features, and reliability. However, it does not have as powerful an engine and may be costlier.

One of the other vehicles that compete with the Safari Storme is the Renault Duster. It is an SUV that is more affordable than the Safari Storme and comes with a 5-seater configuration. The Hyundai Creta is a larger 5-seater proposition in this regard. Both these SUVs are no match for the brawn of the 7-seater Tata Safari and lack off-roading abilities. However, they are better equipped with contemporary features in some respects. Their engines are also not as powerful as the Safari.

Verdict (Value for Money?)

The Tata Safari, one of the first locally produced and most popular SUVs in India, has been on the market for several years now. In that time, it has seen a number of improvements and updates, notably to its engine and power output. The Tata Safari Storme is based on the X2 Platform of its sibling ARIA and features a more robust Hydro formed Chassis sections, a new 2.2-liter,16-valve DOHC Common Rail Direct injection diesel Engine named VARICOR with Variable Turbine Technology, and a new G76 Mark II Gearbox. Although the Storme is already the most reasonably priced SUV on the market at this size and with this heft, it may benefit from a few upgrades in terms of interior plastic quality, features that are available from other brands, and general refinement. It looks and feels dated, although it offers a powerful engine and suitable ruggedness with that take-me-anywhere feel.
