Gets the turbo-petrol that debuted on the Sierra but with more power
Powering the Harrier and Safari’s petrol variants is the 1.5-litre Hyperion engine that debuted on the Sierra SUV and was developed in-house by Tata Motors. For the Harrier and Safari, this turbo-petrol unit has been tuned to produce more power and torque: 170hp and 280Nm, an increase of 10hp and 25Nm over the Sierra, as these SUVs are larger and heavier. Interestingly, the Harrier and Safari petrol versions match their diesel counterparts in power.
