The Gravitas is essentially a Harrier with seven seats. But is that it?
Tata Motors has unveiled the Gravitas SUV at the ongoing Auto Expo 2020. In a nutshell, the Gravitas is essentially a longer Harrier with an extra row of seats. However, the Gravitas comes with a handful of elements to differentiate it from the Harrier. Let’s have a closer look.
Design:
Both models look almost the same when viewed head-on. The only change is the revised colour scheme in the grille. However…
… the Gravitas looks different when viewed in profile. It comes with a stepped roof and a longer rear overhang to accommodate the extra row of seats. This has resulted in the Gravitas…
… getting an upright tail gate and a sleeker set of LED tail lamps.
Interior:
The Tata Gravitas and the Harrier share the same dashboard and come with a floating infotainment system. However, the Gravitas comes with a black-beige colour scheme while the Harrier comes with a black-brown combo. The Harrier can also be had in a dark edition, with an all-black cabin.
Any New Features?
Both models come with features like an 8.8-inch infotainment system, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a JBL sound system, climate control, a 7-inch colour multi-info display, keyless entry with push button start and auto-dimming IRVM. Safety features include 6 airbags, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors and a rearview camera.
The Gravitas goes an extra step and comes with an electric parking brake function with an auto-hold function. However, it misses out on the panoramic sunroof, a much loved feature found in the Harrier.
Under The Hood?
Both models come with a BS6-compliant 2.0-litre diesel engine that develops 170PS of power and 350Nm of torque. It can be had with either a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic option. Both models also come with drive modes and terrain modes if you intend to be adventurous.
Expected Prices:
The Tata Harrier is currently priced from Rs 13.69 lakh (ex-showroom). We expect the Gravitas to be priced Rs 1 lakh more than the equivalent Harrier variant. The Tata Harrier locks horns with the MG Hector 5-seater, Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos. On the other hand, the Gravitas will rival the MG Hector Plus (6-seater) and Mahindra XUV500.
