Shantanu Naidu's Safari Experience

Shantanu Naidu, a familiar face with Ratan Tata and a general manager at his office, purchased his Tata Safari during Dussehra this year. Shantanu, who was formerly driving a Tata Nano, shared his experience of owning the new Safari.

The new SUV, named 'Yuki’, is an 'Accomplished Plus' top-end variant which Shantanu has already driven for almost 1,000 kilometres. The unique design and the distinctiveness of the Safari facelift were the main attractions for Shantanu.

Ratan Tata Checking Out The New Safari

Shantanu praised the performance of the Safari on highways, its comfortable ride, and its excellent power output. He found the Sport mode extremely aggressive and appreciated the unique look of the 19-inch alloy wheels. However, he also pointed out the need for improvements in certain areas.

For instance, the gloss black interior is prone to scratches, and some of the ADAS features are annoying. Notwithstanding these minor issues, Shantanu is extremely pleased with his purchase, as seen from the pictures shared online.

About The All-New Tata Safari

The all-new Tata Safari is powered by the same 2.0-litre turbocharged diesel engine that generates 170 Bhp and 350 Nm of peak torque. The price for a brand new Tata Safari starts at Rs 16.19 lakh, ex-showroom, and goes up to Rs 27.34 lakh, ex-showroom.

The endorsement of Shantanu Naidu, a close associate of Ratan Tata, speaks volumes about the allure and performance of the new Tata Safari. With its striking design, powerful performance, and competitive pricing, the new Safari is poised to be a game-changer in the Indian SUV market.
