In profile, the car gets prominent lower body black plastic cladding and chrome finished wing mirrors with integrated turn signals. Other accessories include off-road tyres, window visors, plastic door handles and foot boards.

A rear tow hitch completes the customization. Save for the black fabric upholstery the interior pretty much continues in stock condition.

Tata is working on a mild refresh for the SUV which is expected to be launched sometime next year.  The power output of the engine would be increased to around 150 PS and it could be available with an option of an automatic transmission.
