Highlights

    Post the Aria, Tata Motors has looked into the segment of crossovers with renewed gazed and it was in March this year that we first saw the fruition of that dream. The company showcased the new SUV concept - Hexa. Well, here are some pictures of the car which suggest that the production version is very close to the concept.

    Though the company has not said much about the car yet, it has come to our knowledge that it plans to roll out the Hexa in India in February, 2016. One look at it and it immediately reminds you of the Aria, well it is based on it. However, considering the path Tata is taking after having launched HorizoNext, there will be a few changes.

    While the overall shape may remind you of the Aria, there are certain design distinctions, like the bulge on the bonnet, which makes it look a bit muscular, although there aren't any flamboyant lines on the sides of the car. There are also the new projector head-lamps, a new honeycomb mesh front grille, newly designed fog-lamps, and a redesigned airdam. The chrome tipped exhausts too make it look a bit premium but we've seen them on the Aria and just hope that the chrome is part of the exhaust rather than just an embellishment.

    The Hexa is based on the Aria platform and features a 2.2-litre, 4-cylinder, VARICOR diesel unit that is good for 154bhp and 400Nm torque. The car is 4764mm long, 1895mm wide, 1780mm tall and has a wheelbase of 2850mm. While the showcased concept was a 6-seater, expect either 7 or may be 8 seats in the production model.

    Changes to the rear include LED tail-lamps, and a new bumper in dual-tone paint scheme amongst others. Tata will launch the car at the 2016 Delhi Auto Expo and it will all come down to how well the company prices the car.
