I have booked the Tata Harrier Adventure X Dark AT (Petrol), but I am now a bit confused about whether I should upgrade to the Adventure X+ Dark AT variant. Personally, I do not feel the need for ADAS features, but I would like to have other features such as quad disc brakes and EPB with auto hold. As per my understanding, the price difference between these two variants is around ₹45,000, and there is no option to exclude ADAS from the Adventure X+ variant. Could you please help me decide which option would be the better choice between these two variants?

The price difference between the Tata Harrier Adventure X Dark and the Adventure X+ Dark variant is only about Rs 35,000. For that amount, you get a lot, as you mentioned, and we would recommend opting for the higher-spec Adventure X+.

While you may not strictly need ADAS, it is a useful safety net to have, and we found that it generally works well without any unwanted interventions. Quad-disc brakes are also beneficial on a heavy SUV like the Harrier, and the electronic parking brake (EPB) is a nice addition, too.

I am currently evaluating two SUVs and am a bit confused about which one to choose: the Tata Harrier Petrol Adventure Plus or the new Kia Seltos HTX (A). Which one should I go for between the Tata Harrier Petrol Adventure Plus and the Kia Seltos HTX (A)? Please help me make a more confident decision.

Both these SUVs are solid picks, and choosing between them boils down to your priorities. The Tata Harrier is the physically larger SUV of the two and therefore has more interior space and a more commanding road presence. The new 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine offers refined and effortless performance, and the 6-speed torque converter is smooth in operation. Ride quality and high-speed stability are also exceptionally good, making it a superb highway cruiser.The Kia Seltos is the newer of the two and has a more modern interior and exterior design. In the variants you've chosen, it is also better equipped, getting features like ventilated front seats, a larger 12.3-inch infotainment system, a better sound system and more ADAS features. Its 1.5-litre turbo-petrol offers similar refinement and performance to the Harrier, but the DCT isn’t as smooth-shifting as the Tata’s torque-converter automatic. Kia also has a better reputation for after-sales service and should have better resale value.If the Harrier’s road presence, ride comfort and smooth automatic are important to you, then pick the Harrier. However, if features and after-sales service matter more, the Kia Seltos is the better bet.

I am currently using a Tata Harrier and am very satisfied with it overall. Now, I am planning to upgrade and am considering two options: either going for the latest version of the Tata Harrier again or choosing the Mahindra XUV 7XO. Could you please advise which would be the better option?

While the facelift of the Tata Harrier received in 2023 was fairly substantial, it isn’t enough of an upgrade over your Harrier. Instead, we suggest you try something new and opt for the Mahindra XUV 7XO. It is a three-row SUV compared to the two-row Harrier, is better equipped with features such as a triple-screen setup as standard, and offers a more powerful diesel engine. Take a test drive of both SUVs before you decide.

I am looking for a comfortable 5-seater with a spacious and comfortable rear seat. My usage will be around 80% in Bangalore city and 20% on highways. I am currently choosing between the Kia Seltos HTX IVT and the Tata Harrier Adventure X Plus. Which one should I prefer if I plan to keep the car for the long term? Please also consider resale value in your recommendation. If there are any other vehicles in a similar price range that I should consider, please suggest them as well. Thank you.

Between the two, we would suggest going for the Kia Seltos HTX IVT. Considering that 80% of your usage will be in Bangalore city, the 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine paired with the IVT/CVT transmission is a very good combination. The gearbox is smooth and makes the car extremely easy to drive in heavy traffic conditions, which is important for everyday city commutes.The Seltos is also easier to drive and park in the city compared to the larger Tata Harrier. In addition, Kia generally has a more consistent ownership and service experience, which is something that becomes important when you are planning to keep the car for the long term. From a resale perspective as well, the Seltos tends to hold its value well.The Tata Harrier does offer a wider rear seat and a more spacious cabin, so if rear seat comfort for three adults on long trips is your absolute priority, it does have an advantage there. However, considering your usage is mostly in the city, the Seltos will be the easier and more practical car to live with.
