When you first look at the new Safari Storme, you are immediately struck by how, even 14 years after its launch, Tata seems to have made barely any changes to the exterior. Alterations to the nose and rear suggest that it’s not much more than a facelift. However, that misconception gets blown to dust the moment you drive it. Once you’re behind the wheel, you realise just how much of an improvement the new Storme is over the previous Safari. It feels better built, it’s far more refined, it rides really well and the interior too feels a generation ahead.
The most obvious changes are to the front, where the slim, wide grille (capped with a thick chrome strip) undercuts the sharp-looking headlights in a nice, stylistic touch. Move to the side however and the Storme looks exactly like the old Safari. New cladding for the doors and wheel arches can’t hide the fact that the glass house is identical, the doors are similar and the A, B and C pillars are the same as well.
At the back, the tailgate-mounted spare wheel has now been moved under the floor. The result is a cleaner rear profile with a new set of tail-lights.
On the inside, the overall improvement in quality all around is immediately evident and almost nothing of the old car is carried over. The chrome door handles and leather seats add a touch of luxury, as do small details like the chrome on the gearlever and the flock lining in the glovebox.
Just like the previous generation Safari, the Storme has excellent seat comfort and, once you haul yourself in, you are rewarded with a commanding seating position and a delightfully spacious and airy cabin. The front seats are large and very well bolstered, whilst the rear bench is supportive too.
In stark contrast, the third row is far from comfortable or practical. The tiny, foldable jump seats are only useable on short journeys, at best.
On the mechanical front, the Safari Storme uses an updated version of the 138bhp Dicor motor, which Tata now calls VariCor, because of the use of a variable geometry turbo. This 2.2-litre common-rail, direct-injection motor uses double overhead cams, hydraulic valve adjusters and sixteen valves to breathe better.
The overall level of refinement is much better now with an engine that is quieter throughout its rev range, and a cabin that feels particularly well insulated from the outside.
Tata engineers have managed to shave around 75 kg off the old car thanks to a lighter chassis, but this hulking two-tonne SUV is a bit lethargic off the line; a result of its weight and lack of low-end torque. You need to keep the engine above 1800rpm, after which the Storme picks up the pace with a fair amount of enthusiasm. The mid-range is quite punchy and cruising is quite effortless, which suits the Safari’s role as a long-distance cruiser.
The clutch is reasonably light and the gearbox has been improved with shorter throws, but the shift still feels a bit soggy and vague.
The Storme sits on a shortened version of the Aria’s hydroformed X2 chassis and maintains the previous Safari’s 2650mm wheelbase. As a result, the Storme’s chassis is approximately 50 percent stiffer and 35kg lighter than the old Safari’s outdated ladder frame.
The ride comfort is simply fantastic. The Storme coasts over bumps and broken roads like a freight train, flattening out even the largest of potholes. The suspension, also carried over from the Aria, is on the softer side, and hence there’s a fair amount of pitching and heaving over uneven surfaces.
The Storme retains the old Safari’s comprehensive four-wheel-drive system that includes a low range and a limited-slip differential. The system is easily engaged by using a central console-mounted dial and this allows the big Tata to tackle medium to difficult sections.
The new Safari Storme comes equipped with features like ABS, remote locking and an audio system with Bluetooth connectivity standard across the range. In fact, the Rs 9.95 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) that Tata is asking for the base Storme LX may be considerably more than the old LX, but the equipment is on par, if not better than, the old mid-level EX.
Unusually, the top-end VX versions (Rs 12.5 lakh for the 4x2) no longer get the reversing camera (there’s just parking sensors) or DVD player as they did before.
The Safari Storme, then, comes across as a quantum leap ahead of the previous Safari. It’s well-equipped, refined, better built and comprehensively updated. And with prices starting from Rs 9.9 lakh for the base 4x2 model and going to Rs 13.7 lakh for the fully loaded 4x4 option, it’s great value for money. Also, as a long-distance cruiser, nothing can quite beat it for the money. The only grouse is that, even after 14 years, Tata hasn’t got around to changing the ageing body completely.

2019 Tata Safari Storme Review: A Butch Indian SUV
16/12/2019 | by Mohit Bhardwaj
Tata Safari Storme Overview
Tata Safari was launched back in the year 1998 and it will now be bidding goodbye to the production line with a lifespan of almost 22 years. Safari was initially designed as a family SUV for European and Indian markets. It was based on the same chassis as the Telcoline and the shared the same 87PS 2.0-litre turbocharged Peugeot diesel that was doing duties on the pickup. Things, however, changed for the Safari in 2012, when Safari earned itself a Storme suffix. The suffix gave the car a refreshed design on the outside and a revamped dashboard on the inside, and also a Varicor engine. But was it all that was required to help Safari hold on to its legacy? We find out.
Tata Safari Storme 360 View: Exterior Review
Tata Safari Storme is a big and brawny SUV on the outside and catches a lot of attention when on the road.
The word ‘Safari’ means an excursion to watch wild animals in their natural habitat and that’s the reason Safari was designed like a full-fledged offroad-worthy SUV or Tata named its full-fledged offroad-worthy SUV ‘Safari’. That said, Safari in its Storme state of the update is more of an evolution than revolution. It carries that typical Safari silhouette, but without a tailgate-mounted spare wheel. The Strome has also ditched a lot of curves for some straight lines, which hints towards some Land Rover design cues.Front View
From the front, Tata Safari Storme has an uncanny resemblance to the Rovers, thanks to the new grille and clamshell bonnet.
The Strome has a similar windscreen as that of the older Safari and that is the only design component that has been retained here from the older car. Yes! Rest everything is new. It now gets a slim air dam on the lower bumper and so is the grille now. The clear lens headlamps are also slimmer now in comparison to the old model it replaces. Holding all the design slimmer design elements in place is the new clam-shell bonnet that also gives the new Safari Storme a very Land Rover-ish appeal. Overall, the face is clean and looks upmarket as Tata has refrained itself from keeping front fascia of the car busy and cluttered. The thin strip of LED-DRLs mounted on the front bumper, however, looks like an afterthought.
Much has not changed on the sides of a Tata Safari Storme in comparison to the older car, as it still retains the legendary Safari silhouette.
An SUV without any visual bulk on its side fails to classify as one. Safari with the Storme moniker has lost a little on the length as the spare wheel is now moved its position to under the body from the tailgate. The new bumpers also add a little more maturity to the car’s design; however, the prominent Safari window line shouts out loud that it is a Safari. With new 5-spoke alloy wheels, door handles, and body cladding, the Strome has parted ways with the senescence for some modern feel to the car. Moving to the modern dimensions the car hasn’t compromised on any of the SUV credentials. It has a large glass area with 3 proper windows and the 3rd rear window or the quarter glass also mimics the windows of a Discovery 4 with silver inserts above it that tries hard to resemble an alpine window.
Safari has now ditched the tail-gate mounted spare wheel for a cleaner and matured look.
Identifying a Safari was always easy with its tailgate-mounted spare wheel but with the addition of Storme suffix, Safari lost the tailgate-mounted spare wheel. This gave the car a matured rear end, which never excited anyone for sure. Apart from this major change, the rear facet of the car also received itself a pair of new tail lamps and also a bumper. However, Tata has used the same windscreen as of the old Safari, which means there’s a canvas of sheet metal expanses left unattended on the tailgate. Tata tried its best to make use of that empty place by painting it in two different shades and shifting the number plate housing assembly from the bumper to the tailgate.
Tata Safari Storme Dimensions: Length, Width, Height & More
Safari Storme is a massive SUV by all measurements, and helping the car with those proportions are its dimensions and a kerb vehicle weight of 2030 kg. The Safari Storme measures at 4655 mm in length, 1965 mm in width, and 1922 mm in height. Thus, the SUV also has a road presence that can dwarf overs almost every other car on the road, while with a ground clearance of 200mm Safari Storme can tower over almost any speed bump without scraping its underbelly. With a boot space of 981 litres when the 3rd-row jump seats are not in use, Safari Storme proves itself as a potent overlanding SUV. Also helping it do the task is the 63 litres fuel tank. All of this bulk sits on 16-inch wheels which are shod with 235/70 R16 rubber.
Tata Safari Strome is one massive car and the dimensions of the car aid the SUV in doing so.
Tata Safari Storme Design: Interior Review
On the inside, Tata Safari is more spacious than a studio apartment (Pun Intended). The space on offer inside this SUV is actually more than what 5 average size adults would ever need. The car also offers a luxurious cabin and big seats to accommodate the largest of human beings. Storme does lack a modern-day amenities seen in the latest SUVs or crossovers taking over the market, but you do get all the basic comfort and convenience feature that you might ever need in a car. But what? Let’s find.
Seating Capacity
Safari Storme is a 7 seater full-size SUV, however, the 3rd row in the car isn’t ideally the best iteration of a seating layout for a 7-seater car. That said, first and second row are super-spacious and comfortable, while the 3rd row gets a set of two jump seats facing towards each other. With both the seats the place there’s hardly any boot space left to use as the seats are placed in the boot itself.
Safety Features
Safari Storme will soon be discontinued from the market as the car is not capable enough to withstand the compliance with the latest safety compliance of AIS-145. Although, the car gets a few safety features like the dual-front airbags, ABS with EBD assistance but only on the higher variants. Safari might be a bare-bone-basic car in terms of passive safety features; the car uses a safe architecture with intelligent integration of structural safety consideration in the frame’s design. It gets a fairly large crumple zone at the front and side safety bars to further enhance its safety quotient.
Comfort Features
With the update, Safari now gets a new steering wheel and a Harman music system, but the traditional watch fixed in the dash is now gone.
If a big car or rather say a humongous SUV isn’t comfortable, it doesn’t make sense to buy one. Folks at Tata knew of this fact and they designed the car with whatever they could do they make the Safari a comfortable car. Tata performed this job by adding features likes Connectnext Harman system with steering mounted audio controls, reverse parking sensors, adjustable steering column, remote central locking with flip key, electronically foldable and operable ORVMs, manual-dimming IRVM, separate arm-rests for driver and co-passenger. The rear seats of the car also get an armrest that has space to hold two cupholders. Apart from all these features, the car comes loaded with a shift-on-fly mechanism for the 4wd system.
Security Features
On the security front, Safari Storme isn’t short of any gear to keep itself and the occupants secured. It comes with security aids like engine immobilizer, central locking, and child safety lock. Apart from these, Safari Storme also gets a door ajar warning and key-out warning for headlamps on.
Tata Safari Storme Performance: Engine Review
On paper, Tata Safari Storme gets two engine options. Technically, it is just one engine in two different states of tune. One seen on the lower variant produces 150PS and 320Nm while in the higher state of tune this engine churns out 156PS and 400Nm as its peak power output and these engines comes mated to a 5-speed and 6-speed manual transmission respectively.
Safari is still a capable car when it comes to driving aesthetics. There’s noticeable body-roll as the car is tall, but with double-wishbone with coil springs at the front and a rigid axle with coil spring type 5-link suspension on the rear, Safari can eat potholes in breakfast, speed bumps in lunch, and all sort of remaining undulations in the dinner.
Safari comes equipped with a potent suspension and mechanical hardware to take on the path less traversed.
The hydraulically assisted steering is easy to work around in both city and highway conditions. The clutch action is also progressive as it gets a self-adjusting clutch. The engine here (one with 400Nm of torque) has the highest power figures on paper and is capable enough to propel all those 156 horses and 400Nm to the ground. With the assistance of a proper 4wd system, Safari can lay down all of its proper to tackle the worst of the terrains. To hail its prowess off the road it gets a shift on the fly mechanism for switching in between 4wd-low, 4wd-high, and 2wd-high, and a limited-slip differential at the rear axle. On the road, Safari is one comfortable car and it is only the big craters that can disturb its stability. As said earlier, it is a shies a little form the corners but can enter and exit them with grace, which is acceptable for an SUV of this size.
There's a sufficient amount of body roll when it goes around the corner, but on straight roads, Safari cruises with ease and can eat up all the undulations you throw at it.
NVH levels on the Safari are an uncontrollable affair. Even Tata fails to do so. With age, it starts rattling and one can also hear squeaks from the doors panels and other plastic panels.
Tata Safari Storme Mileage: Is it fuel economical?
Tata Safari Storme has ARAI claimed fuel efficiency figure of 14.1 kmpl for a combined runabout in city and highways. In real-world condition, Safari easily returns a fuel efficiency of 12kmpl in the city and a 14-15kmpl on the highways. These figures coupled with a tank capacity of 63 litres gives this car a tank range of more than 800 kilometres.
Tata Safari Storme Cost: Is it affordable?
Prices for this big-bulky-behemoth of an SUV start at Rs. 11.09 lakhs for the base LX 4X2 variant and tops out at Rs. 16.44 lakhs for the top-end VX 4X4 variant. Although, the top-end VX variant is also available with a 2WD layout, which is priced at Rs. 14.80 lakhs.
Tata Safari Storme Colours: How many options?
Tata Safari Storme is available in 5 different colourways, and they are Arctic White, Pearl White, Arctic Silver, Sky Grey, and Urban Bronze. Those opting for the base-spec LX will not have many options to choose from as it can only be had in just Arctic White colour scheme.
Verdict: Is Tata Safari Storme worth buying?
Safari Storme is all set to go off the shelf soon as the manufacturer has decided to pull the plugs on this legendary SUV, but it is a considerable purchase if you are a Safari patron.
Tata Safari has always been a car that almost every Indian dreamt of buying at least once but the tantrums that car threw in terms of its poor after-sales and service made potential buyers change their decision. Things are now changed with the new Varicor 400 motor. It is now peppy and can be driven around almost anywhere with A/T rubber. Given that the car is massive, has a space of a living room, glides over craters like a flying carpet, Safari Storme is a viable option for those plan to go off the beaten path quite often. Although, those commuting around the city around the year and looking for a car loaded with features should rather be looking elsewhere.

Safari storme 2019 2.2 vx 4x2 varicor400 specifications & features, specifications.
Engine & Transmission
Timely services will keep a motor efficient and in top shape.
The official title given by the manufacturer in terms of the name of the engine, the displacement and the number of cylinders.
A bigger displacement and more than four-cylinders generally indicate a performance-oriented engine.
All cars in India either run on petrol, diesel, CNG, LPG or electric power.
Gives a good idea of the performance of the vehicle under full thrust. A higher figure here usually means a higher top speed as well.
Higher the power, the peppier the engine but it can also affect fuel economy.
Relates to in-gear acceleration. A higher figure here means better roll-on acceleration, fewer gear shifts, and possibly better fuel efficiency.
The more torque at low RPM range makes the engine feel more responsive. It also allows the engine to run smoothly without too many gear changes.
This is the maximum fuel efficiency that an engine gives. All numbers are provided by the manufacturer based on tests conducted and specified by the standards of the ARAI (Automotive Research Association of India)
Such fuel efficiency attained while driving in special conditions makes it unlikely to get it in real-world conditions
Cars come with different drivetrain configurations depending on the segment.
Front-wheel drive (FWD) is most common in mainstream cars while expensive cars or SUVs come with rear-wheel drive (RWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD).
Type of transmission used to transfer power from the engine to the wheels
A manually operated transmission is the most popular type, thanks to its simplicity and low cost. Varied types of automatic transmissions are also available.
Set by the Indian Government, this governs the amount of air pollutants released by cars to make the atmosphere safer for humans.
Manufacturers today offer turbochargers to boost engine power without affecting its fuel economy. Superchargers are found in more expensive cars but on the downside, they are not very efficient.
Turbochargers are more effective but require plenty of heat management. Superchargers, meanwhile, offer linear bump in power but they are comparatively more complex.
Dimensions & Weight
The length of the car decides its segment. In India, cars that are less than 4 metres in length enjoy reduced excise duties.
- Length: 4655
Longer length results in more cabin space. It also adds to straight line stability.
A car's width is defined as its widest point without its mirrors.
- Width: 1965
Although more width gives you more lateral space inside the cabin, it makes the car more difficult to park in narrow spots.
The height of the car denotes the highest point of the vehicle from the ground.
- Height: 1922
Taller the car, the more headroom there is on offer inside the cabin. However, a tall boy stance also affect the car’s centre of gravity which can cause more body roll.
The space between the center of the front and rear wheels.
- Wheelbase: 2650
The longer the wheelbase, the more space there is inside the cabin.
It’s the space between the lowest point of the car and the ground.
- Ground Clearance: 200
If the car has a good amount of clearance, it’s easier for it to clear big speed breakers and overall, deal with bad roads.
The total weight of the vehicle with all the standard equipment and all the required fluids.
A lightweight car will always be more efficient and easier to manoeuvre whereas a heavy car would give you a sense of solidity while driving.
The number of doors define the category of car. For example – four door means sedan, two-door means coupe while five-doors usually refer to a hatchback, MPV or an SUV.
The number of people that can be seated comfortably in the car, which has also been mandated by the car manufacturer.
- Seating Capacity: 7
Smaller cars usually have two rows which can seat five, but some SUVs and MPVs have three rows and can seat around 7-8 passengers.
The official volume of the fuel tank of a car, usually denoted in litres.
If a car has a large fuel tank, it can cover long distances without refuelling.
Suspensions, Brakes, Steering & Tyres
Almost all cars in India use an independent front suspension which is usually the MacPherson Strut type.
The rear suspension can either be non-independent or independent.
Most of the budget cars have non-independent suspension while the more expensive ones get independent rear suspension which offers better bump absorption.
Most of the vehicles sold in India get ventilated or non-ventilated disc brakes upfront.
- The ventilated discs are more popular thanks to them providing better stopping power and it also works well in hot conditions.
In affordable cars, drums brakes are fitted at the rear as they are cost effective.
Disc setup at the rear is now getting more popular as cars are getting faster in the real world.
The official kerb-to-kerb minimum radius a car takes to complete a 180-degree turn.
Shorter the turning radius, the lesser space you need to make a tight turn or to take a U-turn.
Almost all steering systems in cars today have an assist to help park them better at low speeds - these can be hydraulic, electro-hydraulic or electric.
The wheels used on cars are either steel rims with plastic wheel cover hub or alloy wheels on higher spec models or expensive cars.
Razor cut, or diamond cut alloy wheel design are not getting more popular. Manufacturers usually offer these in top-end trim of their car models.
Important in a country with varying quality of roads, spare wheels ensure one doesn’t get stranded when one of the main tyres gets damaged.
Select premium car models feature space savers (smaller than the stock wheels) to save on boot space.
The profile/dimension of rubber tyre that fits on the front wheels.
The profile/dimension of rubber tyre that fits on the rear wheels.
Mandatory safety system for cars sold in India, a single beep is emitted after 80kmph and continuous ones after 120kmph
- Airbags 2 Airbags (Driver, Passenger)
Safer three-point seatbelts for passengers seated in the middle of the second row of seats.
Budget cars are usually fitted with more economical lap belts for the middle-occupant.
A headrest for the middle occupant of the second-row of seats.
Budget cars are usually not offered with headrests for the middle occupant of the second-row to save on costs. Headrests are instrumental in reducing whiplash injuries in case of an accident
A digital gauge that provides the live status of the air pressure in every tyre of a car.
For accurate readings, ensure that the sensors on the rim are not tampered with during any wheel/tyre repairs
Anchor points or strap systems built into car seats to keep child seats in place, especially during a crash
ISOFIX is an international standard for child seat anchor points, but not all car manufacturers follow this standard
Mandatory fitment in cars sold in India, emits loud beeps when it detects that occupants are not wearing their seatbelts.
Seat belt warning is mandatory for front-seat occupants, but it is recommended that all occupants wear seat belts.
Braking & Traction
An electronic system that prevents the tyres from locking and skidding in emergency braking situations by pulsing the brakes (quickly releasing and reapplying the brakes)
ABS is a great accident prevention technology, allowing drivers to steer while braking hard
An electronic system that redirects braking forces among the four brakes to stop the car as quickly and stably as possible
A system that increases brake pressure to help the car stop quicker
Even when emergency braking, it is observed that drivers don’t apply maximum brake pressure through the pedal, the BA system provides additional pressure to help stop the car quicker
System designed to improve car stability and control, especially when the car is accelerating.
ESP or ESC cannot increase traction but rather improve control or help regain control in slippery conditions.
A system that sends the car's power to all the four wheels at the same time
A feature that prevents the car from rolling backwards when stopped on a slope
This system cuts power to those wheels that are spinning without grip/traction
Given the option, keep traction control on all the time.
A feature that limits the car's speed without any driver input while traversing down descents
This function prevents wheelspin and maximises traction by shuffling torque between wheels
It is also a nifty safety feature since it offers more control over a vehicle's power delivery
Locking differentials split power/torque evenly among both tyres on an axle.
In off-road vehicles, locking differentials allows for better traction when one of the wheels is in the air, in FWD/AWD cars allows for better corner traction and in RWD sports cars allows for drifting around corners.
Locks & Security
A security device that prevents the engine from being started unless the key is present
This feature let's one unlock all the doors remotely or with a key
This feature automatically locks the car's doors when it reaches a preset speed
A convenient feature for those who can't remember to lock the doors
Such locks are built into the rear doors to prevent rear seat occupants from opening the doors
Comfort & Convenience
The different types of air-conditioning systems used to cool the cabin
Maintaining the lowest temperature and first blower speed offers the best results.
- Front AC Common Fan Speed Control
- Rear AC Vents Behind Front Armrest, Common Fan Speed Control
- Third Row AC Zone Vents on Roof , Fan Speed Controls
This feature allows warm air to pass through the air-con vents for heating the cabin
Compact mirrors fitted to the inside of the sunvisor
The option of being able to access the boot space while sitting inside the car
These mirrors negate the glare from headlight beams of cars behind you
