    Opinion seltos 

    I own seltos petrol.As per my opinion seltos is the best badass in suv segment i purchase seltos in 2021 and till now i have no issues in my car, Mileage is reached 20 if you driven car in softing way your car on highway, Otherwise in city 10-11km/litre, Build quality has little issue, Body is not as expected otherwise although i have never touched my car in 3 years, My car have one hand always so driven is very soft and no issue.At last i say this is must buying car if you compromise with bulid quality.And driven softly, Otherwise you enjoy very much.Lovely car 🚗❣️.

    The King of Roads with a Few Hiccups 

    My family and I recently bought the new Tata Safari and we could not wait to take it on a long drive down the scenic routes of Kerala. Equipped with a 2.0 liter Kryotec diesel engine producing 170PS, the Safari handled everything with ease whether it was winding roads or smooth highways. The panoramic sunroof added a beautiful touch to our road trip by providing scenic views and endless fun for the kids.

    spacious and amazing 

    Having heard a lot about the Tata Safari is a very convenient four wheeler with an affordable price and many colour options available. It is very accessible and spacious, among the other models. It is a perfect fit for family and friends in the accommodation section. I have the white colour of this model. It looks amazing on the exterior and so is the interior with a seating capacity for five members, suitable for city ventures.

    Living with the Tata Safari 

    A Family Experience Six months ago I decided the Tata Safari would be our next family car drawn in by its appealing promise of space and power. The Safari with its 2.0 liter turbocharged Diesel engine delivering 170 PS power and 350 Nm of torque does not disappoint. It is energetic and responsive which makes it fun to drive. I get about 12-13 kmpl on city roads which is decent but a bit lower than some competitors.The Tata Safari combines power space and a bit of luxury making it a solid choice for anyone looking for a large family vehicle.

    discover your strength of a tigress 

    Discussing about the absolute best in the segment of cars, the Tata Safari is a perfect fit. From exterior designs to inner qualities, from loaded features to the functions of the bike and from generating power to the affordability of the car, it is indeed an all-rounder and the absolute best in the segment. The powerful engine is the reason behind this model giving the best performance than any other models. The exterior look is my favourite that is glossy and shiny with metallic paint.
