India's safest 7-seater SUV — 5-Star rated, now available in both turbo-petrol and diesel
The Tata Safari is essentially the 7-seater cousin of the Harrier, sharing the same Land Rover-derived OMEGA architecture but adding a third row of seats and the iconic Safari nameplate that carries enormous brand equity in India. It's available with both a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine (added in 2026) and the proven 2.0-litre diesel.
What truly sets the Safari apart in its segment is its 5-Star Global NCAP safety rating — making it the safest 7-seater SUV you can buy in India. For families who need 7-seat capacity and refuse to compromise on safety, the Safari is the definitive choice.
Top variants come loaded with Tata's latest technology including ADAS, a panoramic sunroof, ventilated seats, JBL sound system and a large touchscreen — making it one of the most comprehensively equipped 7-seaters under ₹30 lakh.

The turbo-petrol option (launched January 2026) undercuts the equivalent diesel by roughly ₹1-1.4 lakh; the new Accomplished Ultra trim (May 2026) brought full feature parity to diesel buyers for the first time.
