Upcoming Tata Harrier SUV has been spotted testing at the Kari Motor Speedway ahead of its launch in early 2019. It has been spotted again under heavy camouflage. Check out the images and details of the upcoming SUV here. 

The Tata Harrier SUV is scheduled to launch in early months of 2019. Lately, it has been spotted a couple of times while testing. Sometimes on highways and sometimes it was spotted in the hilly areas. Now, fresh spy images reveal the Harrier SUV testing on a race track. Yes, it has been spotted testing on the Kari Motor Speedway in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. This suggests that the SUV is undergoing tests for high-speed cornering and stability. As the launch is getting near, the tests might be done for fine tuning of the suspension and steering settings. It was spotted under heavy camouflage, which could not give us more details about it. However, it spotted the same tires which are found in the lower variants of Hexa.

The Harrier came with 16-inch wheels with 235/ R16 tires, which come on the lower-spec trims of the Hexa. However, in the concept form, it had the Sport segment-leading tires, which would come in top-end variants of the Harrier SUV. The same idea is seen on the Hyundai Creta, where the top-end variant gets a bigger sized wheel.
