Tata Buzzard Spied Again Ahead Of Upcoming Launch

Tata Motors will launch the seven-seater version of the Tata Harrier, Tata Buzzard (Cassini), in the second half of 2019. Ahead of its launch, Tata Buzzard has already been seen testing several times. The upcoming SUV was recently spotted again. It continues to rest with heavy camouflage. However, as revealed by the spy pictures, the seven-seater model will feature identical silhouette as in the Tata Harrier apart from the extended C-pillar area. To make the most out of the given platform and accommodate the third row, the design team has made the C pillar upright and extended the quarter glass. The rear overhang is prolonged for the same reasons.
