Tata Motors is working on introducing yet another special edition version for the Harrier and Safari known as the ‘Red Dark’ edition in the Indian market, which were first displayed at the Auto Expo 2023 last month. The company has now revealed a teaser of the upcoming Red Dark edition of the SUVs on its official social media handles, hinting that a launch will take place very soon.
However, the big surprise is the addition of the Nexon in the teaser, confirming that the sub-compact SUV will be getting the special treatment too! Talking about the new special edition version of the three SUVs,there will likely be an all-black paint scheme on the outside with contrasting red touches on the grille, brake calipers. On the inside, we can expected to see red seats, along with red door grab handles and so on.

That said, at the Auto Expo this year, the Safari and Harrier Red Dark were showcased with a new 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system which will replace the relatively outdated 7.0-inch unit that is currently on offer with the two SUVs. Apart from that, the Red Dark edition also adds a new fully-digital instrument cluster, a 360-degree camera, as well as ADAS safety tech. Do note that these features are also now available with other variants of the SUVs.
As for the Nexon Red Dark edition, it is yet to be seen if any new features will be on offer. That said, no changes are expected to be made to the powertrains of either of the three SUVs. The Tata Harrier and Safari Red Dark will be offered with the same 2.0-litre Kryotec diesel engine that powers the standard versions of the two cars. This engine produces 170 PS power and 350 Nm torque, and can be had with either a 6MT or a 6AT.
The Nexon, on the other hand, is offered with a 1.2-litre turbo petrol motor that belts out 120 PS power and 170 Nm torque, as well as a 1.5-litre diesel motor that generates 110 PS and 260 Nm. Transmission options include a 6-speed manual transmission, and an optional 6-speed AMT. Tata Motors had recently updated its entire line-up to comply with the upcoming RDE norms, so no mechanical changes will likely be made.
