1 year ago, I used to watch this video multiple times & had dreamt of buying a Safari Strome then, Last month I bought 2016 Safari Strome, and here I am still watching this video! Coz this video has a different feel! ♥️
My daddy is a Safari lover...now we are owning 5th one the latest Safari Strome..Very long time waited for review of this legend car..you boosted it so much well ...this video ll surely be a milestone in ur blog...great and smart review...Thank u for reviewing this legend ...
Finally... But I would like you to review Original Safari Storme without any modification.... I'm sedan guy but Safari is the only SUV I want to buy. Here in Punjab, we Punjabis are diehard Safari fans
@Covert Cam fuck typo 😂 I wanted to ask what's your story not say that's your story Well idk man I'm planning to get one for offroading these things are dirt cheap second hand
@Covert Cam not many older cars around in hyderabad and i really can't go offroading with something like a wrangler coz the price will just get stuck in my mind and the cheaper ones like thar are legit shit tho IDK what to do You got any suggestions?
@Covert Cam Only a chut like you would say such a thing about the Safari. Go drive your shit stained Japanese and Korean cars. Only Men drive Tata and Mahindra.
There's a possibility of TATA retaining the Safari nametag for the 7 seater version of the Harrier. The good old Safari will be missed though. Thanks Faisal bro for this review.
No. H7X will have the same compass engine but with power than that of harrier. H7X will have around 170bhp power and 350nm torque. In diesel engines, torque matters more for better driving and off-roading. Safari storm's 2.2L produces 400nm torque which makes safari beast on both highways and off-road.
This just reminded me of my dicor 2.2 the body roll, the understeer, heavy clutch even the heavy steering, long gear throws which felt like truck, the high comfort level, that big badass road presence. This car really gets the respect on and off the highways be it buses or trucks they don't wanna mess with this beast. This pure old school ladder on frame chassis isn't a drivers car but I still miss this car. This video is totally on point couldn't agree more. Any safari owner will love this video and I can totally relate to it.
My uncle has this same 4x4 top model in the same brown colour...which he bought in 2013...and now has clocked close to 1,50,000 kms...and I m surprised he never faced a problem till now....and the vehicle has a lot of power and torque and the ride quality is amazing....very stable at high speeds also....it does 170- 180 kmph with ease...We have even touched 200 kmph on the Mumbai Pune expressway while coming back to Pune...
Neither harrier or no other suv can replace the love and emotions for safari,for me I love safari more than endeavour safari should be declared as national suv of India it was the 1st Indian luxury suv it has such huge road presence from childhood I have dream that 1 day I will buy this since my childhood I just stare the safari sumo the 1st gen safari was just a dope I just love it I wish tata may continue it ❤💔
@@kasperhekmatyar3984 safari can't replace gypsy coz where gypsy can go safari can't even imagine. Go to any hilly area north or north east and will only see gypsy. Safari is to heavy for it's own good. FYI RULE NO1 FOR ANY SUV LIGHT WEIGHT. Safari is more than 2 tonne.
I have never saw you giving so much detailed information about looks of the vehicle in your videos. I mean you have spent almost half time of your video. That's good.. Shows your love for this legendary SUV.. Great video again
safari storme is the royal enfields of the cars, it is not a good value for money, reliable or powerful but it has a old school charm and is brimming with character. it is just so cooool.....
Not really....my uncle has this same 4x4 top model in the same brown colour...which he bought in 2013...and now has clocked close to 1,50,000 kms...and I was surprised he never faced a problem till now....and the vehicle has a lot of power and torque and the ride quality is amazing....very stable at high speeds also....it does 180 kmph with ease...We have even touched 200-210 kmph on the Mumbai Pune expressway while coming back to Pune...
Boy you're wrong! Safari is most powerful in the segment, engine is refined and it is reliable as well. It is the only suv which can cruise like xuv500 and off-road like thar. Each and every car in the world requires updates and facelift on time to survive in market, tata didn't addressed the fit & finish issues in safari storm like mahindra addressed every issue in scorpio and fixed them. Tata did nothing for safari, that's the reason for its failure.
@supercharged petrolhead not reliable or powerful really??? In my neighbourhood one guy has safari storme 2012 model,he does business with it...car has clocked 120k km. Still it is as new as before,it depends on how you maintain your car. And safari is the most powerful suv in its class.
Faisal bhai u just said my words.....i became so attached to my 2012 model....white monster...with huge mag wheels....U made me emotional and i just remembering my golden times.........Soon we’ll buy vericor inshallah❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You can also start a new series in which you can talk about upcoming cars and facelifts. E.g. - Tata H7X, Endeavour facelift (Everest), Creta facelift, etc. I mean I like watching you explain things about cars.
I literally got tears ... in the last part of video .. u said each and every ting which I thought before watching video ... and yeha .. its unbeatable on off-road #proudsafariowner
I got emotionally attached to this SUV when I watched the advertisement of Tata Safari Dicor "RECLAIM YOUR LIFE". And now the name "SAFARI" has been replacing by the new name buzzard/gravitas. I am very much dissapointed 😔
Thanks a lot faisal khan brother. No one make such awesome review. My family own safaris from last 2 decade's. & i sold my 2015 Fortuner to buy safari Storme. Again lot of thanks 🖒🖒
Safari and safari stormes are the real looking suv's not the harrier, nexon, and hexa they are feature loaded vehicle looks like almost a concept vehicle thumsup if ur agree
Im driving safari since 8 yrs..it is well maintained n fully satisfied with its driving quality.And you are right, once you start driving safari you ll use of it like iam too and i hardly adjust with other cars interms of driving and comfort.It makes you feel very secure and you ll start enjoy driving.
@@petesanders21 go for it but it should have highly maintained and not very old. Go with model after 2017 and top variant if your driving is not in ncr or near by ncr.
Brother safari storme will be discontinued this year due to new emission and safety norms. Tata is going to launch a new safari soon on a new platform.
A very dear family friend owns an old safari no not a storme but he swears by it .... It drives on everything and then some all the time .... Then I could also argue that he is an exceptional talent on river beds but it's both machine and man at the end of the day.....
I too had safari storme varicor 400, rightly said there are 2 people who like it or who dont. You need to listen your heart instead of brain while buying a safari ❤️
Appreciate your decision of not showing the speedo But see man , whats the point of a POV when u cant even see the console properly Also by not showing the speedo you won't make a huge difference, Those who wants to drive fast will drive fast Plz show the speedo Not seeing the speedo kills the vibe for me
The modifiers have totally messed up this storme, my Varicor 400 VX is soo much better. 1) stock wipers are absolutely fine. 2) they have wrongly tuned the engine, I never have to go above 1500 RPM on any gear. 3) rear wipers are an absolute necessity, removing them is just stupid. 4) the storme is already a wide car it does not need wheels jutting out 5) the new steering wheel has media control. 6) the stock steering is VERY responsive and light, fortuner and even a few higher end sedans can barely compete with the steering's fluidity. 7) getting 245 size tyres will make a world of difference on bad roads. 8) engine starts with a roar but gets quite soft from the third gear. 9) Stock infotainment system is just fine. Just get an iPad if you need. 10) custom grills are not ideal as stock grills are designed specifically for the turbo charger to intake certain amount of air 11) they money you spent on the shitty infotainment system could actually be used to enhance the cockpit. 12) Ignition button can be added and fuel and power window controls can be shifted elsewhere. 13) you can get custom gauges on the right beam. In short: you have totally FUCKED a perfectly good car. Edit: I have 100000KMs on my storme.

Thanks bro for tata Safari
The modifiers have totally messed up this storme, my Varicor 400 VX is soo much better.
1) stock wipers are absolutely fine.
2) they have wrongly tuned the engine, I never have to go above 1500 RPM on any gear.
3) rear wipers are an absolute necessity, removing them is just stupid.
4) the storme is already a wide car it does not need wheels jutting out
5) the new steering wheel has media control.
6) the stock steering is VERY responsive and light, fortuner and even a few higher end sedans can barely compete with the steering's fluidity.
7) getting 245 size tyres will make a world of difference on bad roads.
8) engine starts with a roar but gets quite soft from the third gear.
9) Stock infotainment system is just fine. Just get an iPad if you need.
10) custom grills are not ideal as stock grills are designed specifically for the turbo charger to intake certain amount of air
11) they money you spent on the shitty infotainment system could actually be used to enhance the cockpit.
12) Ignition button can be added and fuel and power window controls can be shifted elsewhere.
13) you can get custom gauges on the right beam.
In short: you have totally FUCKED a perfectly good car.
Edit: I have 100000KMs on my storme.
What year is your safari & how's your experience been maintaining and driving wise
Very true
