Tata Safari Storme With More Powerful Engine Set to Launch Soon

The added grunt and new gearbox should improve the Safari Storme's highway and city ride dynamics. The Tata VariCOR 400 engine is also expected to find its way into the upcoming Hexa crossover. Besides the VariCOR 400 badging on its sides, the new Safari Storme should visually stay unchanged. The VariCOR 400 engine option will only be available in the top-of-the-line VX trims of both the 4x2 and 4x4 versions. The new, more powerful Safari Storme is slated to be launched in December, 2015 although the exact date is as yet unconfirmed.
