The all-new Tata Harrier will soon get challenged by some big bold SUVs that will be launching in the Indian market in the coming time. Here is a list of all the vehicles that will be launching in the market and will take on the Tata Harrier.
Kia Seltos

Kia will launch their first vehicle in the market later this month. The Seltos will launch on 22nd August in the Indian market and will offer some first-in-segment features. The unique features in the Seltos include UVO connected infotainment system, Bose speakers, connected air purifier, connected ambient lights, blind zone detection system, rear reclining seats, traction modes, driving rearview monitor and Heads-Up Display. Kia will also offer three different engine options with the Seltos and for the first time in the Indian market, all the three different engine options will get three different automatic transmission options. There will be a 1.5-litre petrol engine, 1.5-litre diesel engine and the most powerful of all – a 1.4-litre turbocharged petrol engine.
Hyundai Creta

Hyundai is also working on the all-new Creta, which will be based on an all-new platform that underpins the Kia Seltos too. The Hyundai Creta is expected to be launched in the 2020 Auto Expo.

With the Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza ruling the sales charts for months now, soon the bigger sibling of the vehicle will be launched in India. The Suzuki Vitara, which is already on sale in the international markets was spotted testing in India a few weeks back. Maruti Suzuki is expected to showcase the vehicle at the 2020 Auto Expo and will launch the vehicle in the market subsequently.
