Here’s all&nbsp;you need to know about the top 5 segment-first features of the Tata SUV.</p><h2><strong>A 12-speaker JBL Black Sound System</strong></h2><p>The newly launched Tata SUV has a 12-speaker JBL Black sound system, complemented by a dedicated soundbar. This is a significant upgrade from Tata’s&nbsp;traditional 10-speaker layout. In addition to two extra, it features Dolby 5.1, Dolby Atmos, promising immersive surround sound and clear acoustics throughout the cabin.</p><h2><strong>A Triple Screen Layout<br></strong></h2><p><br></p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/12/Tata-Sierra-Three-Screen-Setup-1765189219011.webp" alt="Tata Sierra Three Screen Setup.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p>
    <p>The new Tata Sierra distinguishes itself in the hotly contested mid-size SUV segment with its segment-first Triple Screen Layout.&nbsp;While popular competitors like the Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos offer highly&nbsp;modern cabins, they typically employ a sophisticated, but less expansive, dual 10.25-inch&nbsp;connected display setup for the instrument cluster and infotainment system.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/tata-sierra-price---smart-pure-and-adventure-variants-cost-revealed-122358/">Tata Sierra Price - Smart+, Pure, and Adventure Variants Cost Revealed!</a></p><p>The Sierra,&nbsp;in contrast, offers a superior screen experience, pairing a 10.25-inch digital cluster&nbsp;with a substantial 12.3-inch infotainment display and further enhancing passenger&nbsp;comfort with a dedicated 12.3-inch passenger entertainment screen.</p><h2><strong>Extendable Sun Visors</strong></h2><p>In the Sierra, both front occupants benefit from extendable sun visors. These visors slide outward to block sunlight that typically escapes&nbsp;past traditional visor edges, resulting in a calmer, more comfortable driving environment.&nbsp;It improves comfort and visibility, and comes as a standard convenience feature in the cabin.</p><h2><strong>Frequency Dependent Dampers</strong></h2><p>The Sierra uses frequency-dependent dampers that greatly improve its ride quality. These dampers adjust themselves based on the road surface, helping the suspension absorb small bumps while remaining&nbsp;steady over rougher stretches. This makes the drive&nbsp;feel stable and reassuring, even on mild soft-roading paths.</p><h2><strong>Blind Spot Monitor</strong></h2><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/12/Tata-Sierra-Blind-Spot-Monitor-1765189262037.webp" alt="Tata Sierra Blind Spot Monitor.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p>
    <p>The new Tata Sierra benefits from a segment-first&nbsp;camera-based Blind Spot Monitoring system,&nbsp;often referred to as a Dual Blind Spot Monitor. It is powered by the vehicle’s 360-degree camera system and part of Tata’s ‘4Sight’ suite.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/top-5-best-selling-car-brands-in-november-2025-maruti-suzuki-tata-motors-and-more-122394/">Top 5 Best-selling Car Brands in November 2025: Maruti Suzuki, Tata Motors, and More</a></p><p>The unit also displays live front and rear side blind spots as soon as the indicators are engaged.

<p>Toyota Gazoo Racing has finally lifted the covers off the prototypes of the new GR GT and GR GT3, giving enthusiasts a clear look at how the brand plans to shape its next phase of performance cars. Both models are set for production around 2027 as Toyota continues to expand its road and customer racing operations. The GR GT is designed for drivers who want one car for both circuits and public roads, while the GR GT3 is specifically created for FIA GT3 competition. Engineers followed three core principles during development: low centre of gravity, low weight with rigidity and strong aerodynamic performance. Testing took place at Fuji Speedway, the Nurburgring and various public roads, guided by Akio Toyoda and a team of professional drivers and engineers inspired by lessons from the Lexus LFA.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/the-lexus-lfa-successor-is-finally-here-and-its-fully-electric-122346/">The Lexus LFA Successor Is Finally Here – And It’s Fully Electric</a></p><p>Both cars share a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine, with the GR GT using hybrid tech for more output and the GR GT3 tuned purely for racing. Each model features its own unique interior layout, chassis setup, and aerodynamic design to meet its distinct purpose.</p><h2>Toyota GR GT</h2><p>The Toyota GR GT features an aluminium frame with carbon fibre reinforced plastic panels to keep weight in check while maintaining rigidity. It measures 4,820 mm in length, 2,000 mm in width and 1,195 mm in height with a 2,725 mm wheelbase. </p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/12/New-Toyota-GR-GT-1764911026515.webp" alt="New Toyota GR GT.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>The design supports balanced use on public roads and circuits, helped by a 45:55 weight distribution and a low centre of gravity. Double wishbone suspension, forged aluminium arms, carbon ceramic brakes and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres complete the setup.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/12/New-Toyota-GR-GT-rear-1764911021884.webp" alt="New Toyota GR GT rear.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>Inside, the GR GT sticks to a focused and simple layout built around driver visibility and control. Sports seats support both daily drives and track outings. The digital display presents shift lights, gear position and driving data in a clean format. </p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/12/New-Toyota-GR-GT-Interior-1764911005011.webp" alt="New Toyota GR GT Interior.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>Controls sit close to the steering wheel, and a touchscreen sits on the transmission tunnel for core functions, keeping everything within easy reach.</p><p>

A full roll cage meets safety requirements, and a yoke-style steering wheel offers precise control. The cabin integrates race-grade computing systems for telemetry and team communication. All switches and controls sit within quick reach, and the stripped layout keeps weight down for long stints.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/12/New-Toyota-GR-GT3-Interior-1764910993706.webp" alt="New Toyota GR GT3 Interior.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>The GR GT3 carries the same 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 base engine as the GR GT but tuned for GT3 racing without hybrid assistance. Power and torque vary according to Balance of Performance rules, but the aim is a stable output for endurance and sprint formats. The engine connects to a racing gearbox driving the rear wheels, forming a package ready for customer teams.</p>

<p><strong>-The Lexus LFA Concept features a high-performance electric powertrain.<br>-It combines lightweight, rigid construction with technology from Toyota’s GR GT and GR GT3 race cars.<br>-The BEV sports modern styling that honours the original LFA.</strong></p><p>The new Lexus LFA is fully electric and has made its much-awaited debut in concept form, alongside Toyota’s new GR GT supercar and the race-ready GR GT3 in Japan. While details remain limited, the luxury division of Toyota has confirmed that the concept uses engineering know-how from GR GT and GR GT3 race cars while exploring what is possible with an electric powertrain. It has a lightweight aluminium body and is built around three core principles&nbsp;(a low centre of gravity, lightweight yet highly rigid construction, and advanced aerodynamics). Since the original two-door LFA sports car ended production in 2012,&nbsp;fans have eagerly speculated about what a second-generation model might offer – whether it would feature a more powerful V10 or a completely new approach.&nbsp;The new LFA Concept answers that curiosity with a fully electric powertrain, highlighting its ability to explore electrification while highlighting&nbsp;the performance potential of electric sports cars. All of this comes wrapped in a timeless, next-generation design that stays true to the spirit of the original LFA.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/lexus-rx-350h-exquisite-trim-launched-in-india-prices-start-at-rs-90-lakh-122338/">Lexus RX 350h Exquisite Trim Launched in India, Prices Start at Rs 90 Lakh</a></p><p>Speaking on its electric exploration of the supercar, Lexus said, 'The model name 'LFA' is not bound to vehicles powered by internal combustion engines. It symbolises a vehicle that embodies technologies its engineers should preserve and pass on to the next generation.&nbsp;From the past to the future: the Lexus LFA Concept is a testament to how Lexus is preserving and passing on the value&nbsp;of sports cars and car-making knowledge so they can be retained and evolved.'</p><p>
