The prices of each variant of Tata Harrier have been jacked up. The SUV now starts at Rs 13 Lakhs to Rs 16.56 Lakhs (ex-showroom).
Tata Harrier was launched in Jan 2019 at an introductory price of Rs 12.70 Lakhs (ex-showroom). It was priced very competitively as it was originally meant to go against Mahindra XUV500 and Jeep Compass.
Based on the current prices, it undercuts both its rivals and actually goes against Hyundai Creta and Mahindra Scorpio, which are a segment down. Right from the launch, it received an overwhelming response in the market.
However, the good time is over and the introductory prices remain no more. The prices of Tata Harrier are now up by Rs 30,000-35,000 on each variant. Here is the complete price list:
| Variants/Prices | New Price (Lakhs) | Old Price (Lakhs) |
| XE | 13 | 12.7 |
| XM | 14.06 | 13.75 |
| XT | 15.25 | 14.95 |
| XZ | 16.56 | 16.21 |
