Tata Motors officially names H5X SUV as Harrier; to be launched in Q1 2019

Tata Motors on Wednesday said its much-awaited compact sports utility vehicle (SUV) will be called 'Harrier', which is being developed in collaboration with its marque British arm Jaguar Land Rover.

This five-seater monocoque SUV is engineered on the new generation platform and was unveiled at the Auto Expo 2018 as the H5X concept. The commercial launch will take place in the first quarter of 2019.

The Harrier sports sleek looks and dynamism, and offers "a glimpse of the future generation of Tata Motors vehicles in terms of styling, technology and performance capabilities," the company said in a statement.

The Harrier is the first vehicle to sport the 'Impact design 2.0' philosophy and future-ready connectivity and best-in-class infotainment.

Driven by the success of its first compact SUV, Nexon, and also new cars like the sedan Tigor and the compact car Tiago, Tata Motors has made a strong comeback since its lows.
