Prices for new model Tata Safari Storme have been announced
Tata Motors sure seems to be taking their SUV business seriously. We reported earlier that Tata is planning to develop two all-new global SUV’s in collabaration with Jaguar and Land Rover, and that these models will be launched globally by 2017. Now if that seems to be something for the future, in the present, the TATA Safari Storme facelift has got a new lease of life. With the launch of the refreshed model, Tata Motors hopes to snatch some light away from the new Mahindra Scorpio. Tata Motors has also launched a new viral campaign for the new model – #AStormeIsComing. You may check out our post here for all pics and details of the new model Tata Safari Storme.

This will not be the first time the Safari Storme gets a facelift. In a bid to prop up its sales, the manufacturer launched the Safari Storme Explorer Edition with additional features sometime back.

Mahindra is set to roll out the updated XUV500 in near future and Tata could just end up playing the gatecrasher to M&M’s party.
