Tata Motors has made a significant strategic move by launching petrol variants of the Tata Harrier and Tata Safari in India. Previously, both SUVs were available only with diesel engines, limiting their appeal to buyers seeking petrol options. With the introduction of a new 1.5-liter turbo-petrol engine, Tata has expanded the market reach of the Harrier and Safari. Both petrol and diesel versions are now available for these popular SUVs.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
