Tata Motors recently unveiled their Harrier SUV. The 5-seater SUV is part of the new IMPACT 2.0 design language and is the first model to come with OMEGA platform.

Tata Motors has already confirmed a seven-seater variant of the Tata Harrier. According to recent reports, the 7-seater SUV was expected to debut at the 2020 Auto Expo. Now, IAB shares that the upcoming Tata H7X will sport a completely different silhouette compared to the 5-seater, in addition to having two extra seats at the rear.

Apart from the additional third-row seating, the seven-seater SUV will carry forward the same 2.0-litre diesel engine as seen on the Harrier. However, the engine on the 7-seater SUV will be tuned to produce more power of 173bhp similar to the Jeep Compass.

An automatic gearbox is also being worked on by Tata Motors, which is expected to make its way onto both, the Harrier and the upcoming 7-seater SUV.
