2019 Tata Harrier Updates

There were many complaints about the new 2019 Tata Harrier when it first came this year, the pre-production car that we tested also faced issues, so here’s what’s changed –

• Infotainment setup – The system now gets the R10.X update. This update offers more smooth navigation around the infotainment setup and also removes some glitches present in the current system.
• Clutch tuning – The clutch on the Harrier was very hard and has now been tunned for a more softer tractable response.
• Steering setup – The hydraulic steering on the car was weighted and very dead is now softer and more responsive.
• NVH levels – Road noise, engine noise always crept in resulting in a higher decibel in the cabin. more insulation is being provided.
• It is great to see Tata taking the feedback and acting quickly on the new Harrier to make the experience for customers better.
