7 Advantages The Tata Harrier Facelift Offers Over The MG Hector

The new Tata Harrier not only gets some functional feature advantages over the MG Hector, but it also has some feel-good touches inside and out

Tata Harrier and MG Hector

When the Tata Harrier was introduced in the market in 2019, its main competitor came in the form of the MG Hector. While the MG SUV was always a bit more feature-loaded (and got even more tech with a refresh early this year), Tata has stepped up the Harrier’s features game with the recent facelift. In fact, the Tata SUV has now gone a step further and even has some unique equipment over the Hector. Let’s look at the list in detail:

Dual-zone AC

  • One of the new features being provided on the Harrier for the first time is dual-zone climate control.

  • Tata is offering this comfort and convenience feature on the higher-spec Fearless variants of the SUV.

  • The Harrier Fearless trim starts at Rs 22.99 lakh.

  • Tata’s midsize SUV now comes with a driver-side knee airbag, while featuring 6 airbags as standard (also an advantage over the MG Hector).

  • Only the fully equipped Fearless+ variants of the SUV get this safety feature whose prices start from Rs 24.49 lakh.

  • The MG SUV, on the other hand, has an 8-speaker Infinity music system.

A Bigger Driver’s Display

  • While the Harrier did get a 7-inch digital driver’s display with the Red Dark edition, Tata has taken it up a notch by now introducing an even bigger 10.25-inch screen.

  • It also works to show map navigation, a convenience feature usually observed on luxury cars.

  • Tata has equipped the new Harrier with the bigger instrument cluster from the 1-above-base Pure trim, which starts at Rs 16.99 lakh.

Memory Function For Driver’s Seat

  • Both the Tata and MG SUVs mentioned here get a 6-way powered driver seat. That said, it’s the Harrier that has an edge as the carmaker has even provided it with a memory function for the driver seat, which can save up to 3 of your preferred driving positions.

  • It’s available from the Fearless trim onwards.

Diesel-auto Option

  • One of the major advantages that the Harrier has over the Hector is that it gets a proper diesel-automatic combination (6-speed unit), while the latter misses it altogether.

  • Tata has provided the SUV with this combination from the mid-spec Pure+ variant onwards.

  • The Harrier’s automatic variants are priced from Rs 19.99 lakh.
