Apart from the new displays, we expect the carmaker to continue to equip the SUV with ventilated front seats, a panoramic sunroof, cruise control, and wireless phone charging.

Its safety kit should comprise six airbags (as standard), a 360-degree camera, ISOFIX anchor points, and a range of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).

Two Engine Options

The Tata Harrier facelift is likely to be offered with a new 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine (170PS/280Nm). We expect it to get both manual and DCT automatic transmissions. Its existing 2-litre diesel unit (170PS/350Nm) should be retained with the update, with both 6-speed manual and automatic transmission options.
