The way I see it is launch of Buzzard is only going to help Hexa's sales even more. Because once Hexa BS6 comes out, people will be left in no doubt about the future of the product. And maybe some fence sitters will go for the Hexa. So if you want a monocoque SUV with occasional use of 7 seats and with more modern features you should go for the Buzzard. But if one prioritizes comfort and robustness more then go for the Hexa. Quote:
So if let's say that Tata manage to flatten the transmission tunnel as you say then the dynamic character of the Harier will also suffer which is one of its USP. And remember that many front engine front wheel drive cars also have this tunnel. Last edited by Sheel : 25th November 2019 at 21:25. Reason: Back to back posts. | ||

Cutting it quite close aren't they considering the April deadline? That would be another funny decision in a long chain from TML. Giving 2 brawny SUVs with a claimed pedigree in 4x2 FWD avatar while continuing a genetically pure luxury MPV with an AWD and also adding an AT in it! But then - if they do it, no surprise. Decision making seems different in that organization. Last edited by Reinhard : 26th November 2019 at 13:25. | |

| ![]() Name has a heft to it. Sounds solid. All they need to do is launch it with all the bells and whistles in AT guise. |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() February 2020... So there's still 2-3 months to accept and somehow like this name. Personally I'm going to have to try hard for this one... Gravitas...hmm.. |

| ![]() Hope they don't show the ~GRAVITAS~ dune bashing in the next teaser 😂 They seem to be sticking to the theme of luxury (premium offering) in the teaser for the Altroz as well. |

| ![]() I am not able to like the name. Gravitas would have been a great name for a luxury sedan, but not a good choice for an SUV. Still a lot better than XUV,Marazzo etc. At least this has a classy touch to it. |

| ![]() The name got quite a heft to it. Now all that they had to do is make it worthy of the name. It being from the house of Tata, it will have tough time selling in good numbers, so Tata should load it with tonnes of features, price it at the highest possible price instead of VFM pricing, ensure it is niggle free and hard to nitpick, and take good care of the minuscule number of worthy buyers. And use this car as an image builder rather than money maker. Last edited by wheelguy : 26th November 2019 at 20:45. |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() This was in the news sometime back. It's going to be a Hyundai sourced 6 speed torque converter. |

| ![]() Wow. This looks promising and I love the name. I hope the pricing is good, 1-2 lakh more than Hexa. About 23-24 lacs on road would be the price I feel. Also hope that they introduce some of the opulence features (panoramic roof, automatic box, etc) in the Harrier also around the same time or before.
