EXTERIOR:
The new TATA Aria continues to evolve the new TATA Motors design language.
The front of the vehicle is characterized by its aggressive but handsome bonnet line, and sharply styled headlamps. These combine to give the vehicle significant road presence. A wide chromed grille with horizontal slats adds to the classy look. Fog lamps are housed in a separate lower grille.
The side profile is dominated by a sweeping arc roofline, to give the Aria a sporty, dynamic dimension. The muscular wheel arches with large 17” alloy wheels and tyres further accentuate these characteristics. The large rear view mirrors contain turn indicators, and fold away to aid parking in narrow spaces.
The rear of the vehicle has TATA signature vertically stacked tail-lamps, with dual chromed oval exhaust tips neatly integrated into the rear bumper.
INTERIOR:
The interior of the TATA Aria is a clean-sheet new design, with a focus on space and flexibility.
Fold flat seating system: The second-row seats and the third-row seats don’t have to be removed from the vehicle to liberate additional luggage space. The seats fold down to form a flat floor, giving various seating combinations.
Driver’s controls: Seated in the 6 way manually adjustable nicely bolstered driver’s seat, the pilot enjoys an up-on-high view of the road, as also the vertically themed center console and two-toned dashboard on the inside.
This sense of involvement is enhanced with all the essential controls neatly arrayed around, with infotainment controls on the steering wheel.
Supportive and comfortable seating: Taking full advantage of the large interior room, there is an extensive amount of space to accommodate 5 7 occupants within a body height range of 95th percentile, ensuring that almost everyone will find a comfortable seating position. Available leather seats add to the luxury experience.
Space and comfort for second-row passengers: The second-row seat has an adjustable seat back recliner, and can be slid back and forth to apportion leg-room with the third row. The second-row can also be split (60:40) folded to accommodate longer loads. Foldable picnic tables are included in the backs of the driver’s and codriver’s seats.
Climate control: Air conditioning is standard equipment on all new Aria models, and for heightened interior climate control, Automatic Temperature Control is available.
