Tata Harrier Features Apple CarPlay — Tata’s First Official Update

The Tata Harrier was the most awaited SUV launches of 2019. Tata Motors priced the Harrier just right, and it offers fantastic value for money, inspite of missing out on an automatic transmission and a key feature.

According to AutoCarIndia, Tata has now given the Harrier it's first official update. The mid-spec variant called the Harrier XT and the top-spec Harrier XZ now feature touchscreen infotainment systems that are Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatible. The software update will happen at dealer levels across the country.

The Tata Harrier features independent, lower wishbone MacPherson Struts with coil spring suspension in the front, and semi independent twist blades with panhard rods and coil spring suspension at the rear. Braking duties are handled by disc brakes in the front and drum brakes at the rear.

The Harrier XT features a 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system while the Harrier XZ features an 8.8-inch touchscreen infotainment system.
