The test module did, however, reveal a gadget with a radar-like design up front, which suggests that ADAS may be an option. It is anticipated that it will continue to be mechanically driven by the same 2.0-liter turbo-diesel engine from Fiat with a 6-speed manual transmission and 6-speed torque converter. Tata may, however, provide the new Harrier with a new 1.5-liter turbocharged gasoline engine, though specifics have not yet been made official.
