Tata H5 SUV

Tata Motors has been targeting the mass market segment with its affordable products in the Indian market. But in 2018, the company plans to focus on the premium space with its new H5 SUV. The new SUV is likely to be based on the Land Rover Discovery Sport's L550 platform. The SUV has been spotted several times on Indian roads, and it looks to be a prototype model.

The new Tata H5 SUV is expected to draw power from the Fiat-sourced 2-litre diesel engine which is also employed in the Jeep Compass. The SUV will come with a host of new features to justify its premium tag. The H5 SUV will lock horns with the Jeep Compass.

Tata X451 Hatchback

Apart from the premium SUV, Tata Motors will also unveil the new premium hatchback codenamed as X451. The new hatchback will also debut the company's Impact Design language 2.0 which will be an evolved version of the design seen on the currently sold models such as Tiago, Tigor and the recently launched Nexon.

On the mechanical front, the new premium hatchback is likely to draw power from the existing 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol and a 1.5-litre diesel engine which is also deployed in the Nexon. The X451 hatchback will rival the likes of Maruti Baleno, Hyundai i20 and Honda Jazz. Expect the hatchback to be launched in India in 2019.
