Tata Harrier and Safari

Tata Motors, the leading homegrown automaker, is currently working on facelifted versions of the Safari and the Harrier SUVs. It is believed that the Harrier EV concept shown at the 2023 Auto Expo might act as an influence for the new design language used in these cars. The inside of the SUVs will also be updated, and a new two-spoke multi-function steering wheel will be included. In addition, a new 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine with 168bhp of maximum power and 280Nm of peak torque is anticipated to be incorporated in the revised models.

Tata Nexon

Apart from the Harrier and Safari, Tata Motors is also gearing up to debut a facelifted version of the popular Nexon, their compact SUV, in July. Both the exterior and interior of the car will undergo substantial alterations as a result of the planned upgrade. The Curvv concept, which is expected to debut in 2024, will serve as an influence on the external design. A new 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system will be featured inside the vehicle, and a new digital instrument cluster may also be available. The Nexon's new 1.2-litre turbocharged engine with direct-injection technology is another noteworthy improvement. This engine, which made its premiere at the 2023 Auto Expo, produces 125bhp and 225Nm of torque.

Kia Seltos

The Seltos, Kia's first product for the Indian market, was a big hit. But the Seltos' long-overdue redesign is finally coming, and it's expected to debut this year. The revised version will include new features including Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) as well as several aesthetic improvements. While the tail lights will take the L-shaped style found in the facelifted Sonet and Carens models, the headlamp setup will be modified.

It's predicted that the Sonet's design will evolve to include new lighting components, making it more spectacular. Notably, the rear tail lights will have an L-shaped design that is similar to the Kia Carens and the facelift for the Seltos that is now on sale in the international market.
