The Tata Harrier based seven-seater SUV (H7X) will stand as the flagship product for the homegrown automaker in India and get a different exterior design.
Tata Motors has officially announced that they are going to unveil the Omega architecture based seven-seater SUV at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show to be held during the month of March this year. Codenamed as the H7X, this SUV is loosely based on the Harrier, however, it is expected to come with its own unique identity, in terms of exterior design and engine specifications.
The homegrown automaker has already started testing this vehicle on Indian roads. And it is expected that the final production-ready iteration is going to arrive in the Indian market sometime later this year. Going by the spy images of the H7X’s test mule, we can clearly see that this new seven-seater SUV from Tata will have a slightly different exterior design in comparison to the Harrier especially when we talk about its rear fascia.
