The Tata Safari Red Dark edition comes with red inserts outside, and red leatherette seat upholstery on the inside

The Tata Safari Red Dark edition has been showcased at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo in 2024 in New Delhi. This edition of the Safari is based on its top-spec Accomplished Plus 6-seater variant. In this comparison, we explore the differences between the already available Dark edition of the Tata Safari and its new Red Dark edition. While both are offered in the Oberon Black exterior shade, the Safari Red Dark edition features distinctive red highlights both inside and out. Let's delve into how these two SUVs differ in appearance.

Both the Red Dark and Dark editions of the Tata Safari have identical front designs. The skid plate and air dam are blacked out on both versions of the SUV. The only visual difference is that the Red Dark edition of the Safari features a Dark chrome Tata logo and a red insert in the headlamp housing. In contrast, the Dark edition of the Safari comes with the regular chrome Tata logo.

Both versions of the SUV get all-LED headlights and taillights with connected LED DRLs. The DRL setup also features welcome and goodbye animations.

Talking about the profile, the Red Dark edition of the Tata Safari features a red ‘Safari’ mascot on the front doors, while on the Dark edition, it’s in black. Though the alloy wheel design of both editions is the same, the Red Dark edition comes with red-painted brake callipers.

At the rear, the Safari Red Dark features a red-colored Safari badge on the tailgate, whereas on the Dark edition, it’s finished in chrome. Apart from the badges, both the Red Dark and Dark editions of the SUV look the same. Both versions come with connected LED taillights featuring welcome and goodbye animations.
