GENEVA: International Motor Show in Geneva, Tata Motors is showcasing the Hexa Concept crossover, a re-bodied Aria which, from the looks of it, previews the upcoming Aria face-lift, or “Project Eagle”.
However, according to the manufacturer, the Hexa “unveils a new direction to the design language of future Tata SUVs”. The Hexa crossover features the same 2.2-liter VARICOR 400 engine from the Aria, which delivers a 154.21 hp of maximum power and 400 Nm or maximum twist, with a torque-on-demand 4WD system to be offered as an option.
The exterior design looks much more well-defined than Tata Aria and it also gets a very distinctive and muscular front. Tata has added a set of mean-looking headlamps with day-time running lights that perfectly compliment the stylish honeycomb grille underlined by bold chrome accents. All these are perfectly placed above a massive air-dam with a combination pattern of air-intakes and fog lamps on each side. Adding the final touches to this aggressive front is beefy hood moulded to perfection giving a very prominent ‘V’ shaped design line.
The rear end of the Hexa concept perfectly complements the sporty appearance of the front end. Taking a much subtle approach, the rear gets a pair of stylish two-piece LED tail lamps, a massive dual-tone tail bumper with boomerang shaped reflectors and dual tail-pipes. The Hexa SUV also gets a neatly integrated spoiler and stands of brand new 19-inch, five spoke alloy wheels.
Coming to the interiors, as stated earlier the Tata Hexa is a six-seater with three-row configuration and the middle section sports captain seats. You also get new plusher leather seats with twin-needle stitching and some other new features.
