Bookings could start in the coming weeks.
Tata Motors will launch the Tata Hexa in January 2017, Mr. Mayank Pareek, President, Passenger Vehicles, Tata Motors, confirmed in a recent interview. While the Hexa is ready for the market, and media activities around the product start as early as next week, the price announcement and customer deliveries will start only in January 2017. However, bookings are expected to begin in the coming weeks.
Speaking to the Economic Times in an interview, Mr. Pareek said -
Hexa, we will be launching last quarter of this year, the first quarter of the calendar year - Jan, Feb, March. So I think January is what we are looking for.
The Tata Hexa, the company confirmed in a statement last week, will get a Super Drive Mode with four driving modes - Auto, Rough Road, Dynamic and Comfort. The Super Drive Mode will allow the driver to adjust the engine's characteristics by altering the interference level of the ESP.
