Tata Motors began work on the Hexa a few years back. They tested it over eight hundred thousand kilometers, in temperatures ranging from minus twenty degrees to upwards of fifty degrees Celsius, over three continents and varied terrains. The Hexa is not just another premium utility vehicle; it is symbolic of a giant awakening from its slumber.
We tested the Hexa over different terrains across the state of Telangana and the results to come were breathtaking.
Just one glance at the Hexa is enough to reveal that Tata has poured their heart and soul into this one! The proportions do remind me of the Aria. However, the Hexa sports a much more chiseled and macho look. You find crisp and clear lines running seamlessly along the vehicle and the overall design boasts of how far Tata has come and the direction in which they are headed. Tata’s Impact design philosophy has seen multiple inputs from teams within India and from other parts of the globe. The Hexa in its looks and proportions is very contemporary and speaks of class, finesse and power. It sports LED DRLs, Projector headlamps, ample of chrome all around, smart use of plastic cladding and just a touch of piano black finish.
When I stepped into the Hexa, I was greeted with a rather pleasant surprise! The design, quality of materials, level of finishing and refinement has just received an extreme overhaul, unlike what Tata products have so far been associated with. The cabin is feature rich and luxurious throughout its spaces. In terms of tech, the Hexa gets a 5 inch USB, AUX and bluetooth enabled and touch screen infotainment setup which also doubles up as a reverse parking camera. We felt a bigger screen could definitely have been a plus. It also gets power adjustable and retractable ORVMs, a multifunction steering wheel, voice commands, cruise control, 10 speaker JBL audio setup, multiple app suite for controlling various applications such as music and mood lighting via a mobile device. The Hexa also gets rain sensing wipers and automatic headlamps with a follow me home function as well.
