Tata Harrier-Based 7 Seat SUV (H7X) Teased Ahead Of March Debut

The SUV’s front-end appears to be inspired by the Harrier, but the rear is completely different

• 7-seat Harrier is confirmed to launch in 2019

• Tata likely to give it a new name, could be called Buzzard

• Will be powered by the same 2.0-litre diesel engine as the Harrier, but tuned to make more power  

Tata is set to reveal a new SUV based on the OMEGA ARC platform in March at the Geneva Motor Show. It’s the same platform on which the Harrier is based. The carmaker has teased the upcoming SUV officially.

Tata has already confirmed that it will launch 7-seat version of the Harrier (H7X) in 2019, and recent spyshots of a test mule reveal that the 7-seat Harrier will sport a different rear design. A slight rework of the teased image reveals that it’s possibly the 7-seater Harrier that has been teased.

While the front portion of the new SUV resembles that of the Harrier, the roofline is flatter in this case & the rear is more boxy, in order to provide more head- & shoulder-room inside. The boot has been designed and gets a bigger windshield compared to the Harrier. A shark-fin antenna & roof-mounted rear spoiler is also visible.

Tata has already confirmed that the 7-seat Harrier will be launched later this year. It is also expected to get a more powerful version of the Harrier’s 2.0-litre, 140PS diesel engine. We suspect the 7-seat Harrier will get a new name too, and it could be Tata Buzzard. Let us know what do you think about this 7-seat Harrier in the comments below.
