The Harrier Adventure X, which retails for ₹18.99 lakh (ex-showroom, India), is the latest addition to Tata Motors’ well-liked Harrier SUV series. The Adventure X, positioned as a bold and rugged variation, blends premium features of the Harrier with off-road-inspired design elements, making it an intriguing option for SUV aficionados looking for both substance and style.
A Tougher, More Adventurous Look
The new Harrier Adventure X adds a rough charm while maintaining the basic Harrier’s excellent road presence. The design changes are intended to give the impression that the vehicle is more rugged and prepared for off-road use. This comprises:
- Strong body covering on the wheel arches and sides
- The grille and skid plates are finished in matte black.
- Unique Adventure X badges
- New alloy wheel styles and roof rails
Tata has differentiated the Adventure X from other trims in the lineup by incorporating design elements from its well-liked Safari Adventure Persona edition into the Harrier.
Powertrain: New Attitude, Same Performance
Mechanically, the Tata Harrier Adventure X is still powered by the same 2.0-liter Kryotec turbocharged diesel engine, which produces 170 PS and 350 Nm of torque. Depending on their preferred driving style, buyers can select between a 6-speed automatic gearbox and a 6-speed manual transmission.
Tata Motors has adjusted the Harrier’s terrain response settings and ESP (Electronic Stability Program) to provide improved grip and stability in mild off-road conditions, even though the Adventure X lacks an all-wheel-drive system. Because of this, it may be used for weekend trips, rough terrain, and rural journeys without sacrificing comfort when driving.
Interior: Rugged Yet Refined
To represent its adventurous nature, the Harrier Adventure X’s interior has an earthy color scheme with black accents. With amenities like these, Tata has upheld its dedication to comfort and luxury:
- A panoramic sunroof
- 10.25-inch wireless infotainment system with touchscreen Both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay

Tata’s dedication to safety is clear, and the Harrier has already received recognition for its sturdy construction and protective design.
Targeting the Indian Buyer Who Loves Adventure
Customers who desire more than a city SUV are obviously the target market for the Harrier Adventure X. It’s for people who like traveling to unusual places yet still desire convenience, style, and technology. Long road journeys, rough terrain, or just the excitement of having something unique are just a few of the things that the Adventure X excels at providing both emotional and practical satisfaction.
At ₹18.99 lakh, it offers similar, if not better, road presence and features than some of its competitors, such as the MG Hector and Jeep Compass. It also goes well with the recently introduced Harrier facelift, which gave the SUV sleeker looks and updated interiors.
Tata Motors has improved its standing in the mid-size SUV market with the introduction of the Tata Harrier Adventure X. Without significantly increasing the price, it gives an already good SUV an adventurous edge. The Harrier Adventure X is a strong choice for anyone looking for a bold design, reliable performance, and everyday usefulness with a dash of toughness.
