Refreshed Tata Hexa launched at Rs 12.99 lakh

The Tata Hexa has been mildly updated for 2019, with cosmetic changes for the exteriors, along with a new infotainment system. Prices for the model had been revised upwards recently so as to avoid overlapping with Tata’s Harrier.

The mid-spec XM, XMA and XM+ variants of the 2019 Hexa now get the Harman-sourced 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system from the Tata Tiago XZ+ that had launched at the end of last year, replacing the 5.0-inch unit that was on offer earlier. The Infotainment system gets Android Auto compatibility and comes with a 10-speaker JBL system.

Along with the larger infotainment system, the top-spec Hexa XT, XTA and XTA 4x4 variants now come with dual-tone exterior finish options. The roof can be finished in either black or grey – the former can be combined with either a white or silver finish, while the latter can be had with blue, bronze (brown) or grey body paint. The interiors of these variants now also see the addition of a chrome surround for the AC vents and infotainment screen and a black finish on the lower part of the steering wheel.

The XMA and XTA variants on the updated Hexa now come with the 19-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels while the mid- and higher-spec manual variants – the XM, XM+, XT and XT 4x4 – get the 16-inch Charcoal Grey alloys.

Mechanically, the Hexa continues unchanged – the base Hexa XE is powered by a 150hp/320Nm, 2.2-litre diesel engine while all other variants have the same motor tuned to make 156hp and 400Nm of peak torque. The higher variants get 6-speed manual and automatic transmission options while the XE has a 5-speed manual.

While Tata is likely to discontinue the Hexa by the middle of next year (so that the brand can avoid the large investment required for the model to comply with upcoming safety and emission norms), it will continue to be the most expensive passenger vehicle in Tata’s line-up; at least until the seven-seat version of the Harrier – codenamed H7X – will arrive later this year.
