The base-spec Harrier Smart gets features like a digital instrument cluster and six airbags, but misses out on an infotainment unit altogether.

The Tata Harrier facelift has been fully unveiled, featuring updated exterior and interior designs, a range of new features, and an enhanced safety kit. The automaker has opened orders for the updated Harrier for Rs 25,000. Tata has also revised the variant names for the 2023 Harrier, now offering it in four main variants: Smart, Pure, Adventure, and Fearless. Let's take a closer look at the base-spec Smart variant of this facelifted SUV and see what it has to offer.

Upfront, the base-spec variant of the 2023 Harrier features a blacked-out grille with connected LED DRLs and a projector headlight setup (without the welcome and goodbye animation). This variant also misses out on fog lamps. Lower down, it has a chunky air dam in the bumper, which features black inserts and a silver skid plate.
