Tata Motors launches XT+ variant of the Harrier at Rs 16.99 lakh

Tata Motors has launched the Harrier XT+ today at an introductory price of Rs 16.99 lakh, valid through September, as a celebration of the positive sales response the Harrier has recently seen. The XT+ trim features a tinted panoramic sunroof with an auto-close sensor for the rains. The XT+ is a mid-spec variant, getting all the features that the XT does (Rs 16.4 lakh) but with the addition of the sunroof.

It is also coated with a black tinted screen to reduce glare in the cabin. Besides this, the XT+ variant of the Harrier comes loaded with scores of creature comforts such as the 7-inch touchscreen with Android and iOS connectivity which controls the six-speaker setup, automated climate control, an engine start/stop button, reverse parking camera and rain sensing wipers.
