Tata Hexa TUFF
Tata showcased the Hexa TUFF
personalised SUV at the ongoing Auto Expo 2016.
The Hexa TUFF is, the company claims,
designed for “active lifestyle seekers” or offroad enthusiasts. The
personalised version comes with a muscular body kit on the outside and 3D mats
on the inside. An intelligent heads up display, tyre pressure monitoring system
and navigation system. On the back is attached a cycle carrier as well, equipped
to carry three cycles.
The Hexa TUFF is powered by the same
2.2-liter VARICOR 400 engine that produces 156 PS at 4,000 rpm and peak torque
of 400 Nm between 1,700 and 2,700 rpm. The SUV has a wheelbase of 2,850 mm,
while measuring 4,764 mm in length, 1,895 mm in width, and 1,780 mm in height.
The SUV comes fitted with 19 inch tyres as standard. The show car features the
6-speed automatic transmission, but Tata has also confirmed a 6-speed manual
gearbox for the SUV.
The Tata Hexa TUFF showcar did not
feature the four driving modes seen on the standard Hexa however.
