Tata Safari Facelift 2023 Expected Specs
It’s expected that the 2.0L turbo diesel engine will be the driving force in the Tata Safari facelift.

To meet BS6 phase 2 pollution requirements, the 2.0L turbo diesel engine will probably undergo subtle tweaks. The Tata Safari Facelift model will ship along with gearbox choices of a 6-speed torque converter automatic and a 6-speed manual.
