Tata Motors to launch Harrier based 7-seater SUV Gravitas in February 2020

Tata Motors is all set to strengthen its SUV portfolio further with the launch of a new 7-seater Harrier based SUV. The company on Tuesday confirmed that the new car will be called Tata Gravitas and that it has already been so christened. Tata Gravitas is the same 7-seater Harrier based SUV that was named Buzzard at the Geneva Motorshow. There were other reports claiming that the new car could be called Cassini. However, Tata has put all speculations to rest by naming the SUV as Gravitas.

This will be the second vehicle built on the OMEGA (Optimal Modular Efficient Global Advanced) Architecture, which is derived from Land Rover’s legendary D8 platform. The only other car to have used this tech was Tata Harrier. Tata Motors believes that the Gravitas will set international level benchmarks in terms of performance, driveability and luxury.

 Mayank Pareek - President, Passenger Vehicle Business Unit, Tata Motors confirmed that this SUV will be available for customers in February next year.
