What Sets the Tata Harrier Facelift Apart from the MG Hector

The recently updated Tata Harrier not only offers functional advantages over the MG Hector, but also comes with some impressive features inside and out.

Tata Harrier and MG Hector

When the Tata Harrier was launched in 2019, it directly competed with the MG Hector. While the MG SUV was known for its extensive features (which got even better with a recent update), Tata has upped its game with the Harrier facelift. In fact, the Tata SUV now offers some unique features that set it apart from the Hector. Let’s take a closer look at these features:

Dual-zone AC

Memory Function For Driver’s Seat

Diesel-automatic Option

Tata Harrier 6-speed automatic gearbox

  • The Harrier has had one major advantage over the Hector for a long time, which is its diesel-automatic combination with a 6-speed transmission, something the Hector lacks.

  • This is despite the fact that both SUVs are powered by the same 2.0-liter diesel engine with 170PS and 350Nm of torque.
  • Tata offers this combination from the mid-spec Pure+ variant onwards, with automatic variants of the Harrier starting from Rs 19.99 lakh.

  • The Harrier is priced from Rs 15.49 lakh to Rs 27.34 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). Like the MG Hector, it offers premium features such as a large touchscreen, ADAS, leatherette upholstery, and significant road presence.
