The homegrown automaker, Tata Motors is now ready to launch the much-awaited new Gravitas 6/7-seater SUV during festive season. Adding to it, the brand will also introduce the production version of the HBX micro SUV in the end of this financial year. A new media report claims that Tata will also introduce new variants in the Harrier line-up.
The report claims that Tata Harrier will receive two new variants called the XTA and the XT+. The XT+ variant is likely to be positioned between the XT and the XZ variants in the Harrier’s line-up. This variant is also likely to receive a factory-fitted panoramic sunroof.
