As the above table indicates, the new XZS trim is up to Rs 1.30 lakh more expensive than the XZ variant of the Harrier.

The other features of the SUV are the same as the XZ variant which mainly includes Xenon HID projector headlamps, an 8.8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a 9-speaker JBL sound system, automatic climate control, auto headlamps, cruise control, rain-sensing wipers, a semi-digital driver’s display, multiple drive modes, six airbags, ABS with EBD, ESC, hill hold assist, a rear parking camera, and much more.  

In comparison with the range-topping XZ+ trim, the new XZS variant misses out on ventilated front seats and iRA-connected car technology.

Mechanically, the SUV remains unchanged. It will continue to be powered by the same FCA-borrowed 2.0-liter, 4-cylinder, turbo-diesel engine (170PS/350Nm), paired with either a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed torque converter automatic transmission.

In the Indian market, the Tata Harrier goes up against the MG Hector, Mahindra XUV700, Jeep Compass, and select variants of Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Volkswagen Taigun, and Skoda Kushaq.
