Upcoming Tata Sumo: Design
At present, there’s just a word spreading across that Tata might (re)launch the Sumo. So, there’s not even a prototype running across the Indian roads yet – to speak of anything confirmed about the design.
However, given how Tata designed the Sierra – keeping it identical with the OG Sierra, we believe the new Sumo will also come with the design cues from its original model. That includes a boxy-upright stance, spacious interiors, and a rugged build. Moreover, to make it relevant in the current age, this new Tata Sumo could get a new grille, a new set of alloys (19-inch expected), sleek headlamps and taillamps, an illuminated Tata logo and more.

That said, the features on offer could include a triple-screen unit (for the driver’s cluster, infotainment, and entertainment screen), a 12-speaker JBL audio system with JBL Black, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, AR HUD, a panoramic sunroof, a wireless charging pad, and more.

Upcoming Tata Sumo: Safety

Tata is known for safety, so there’s no question about the build. The model could boast several ultra-high-strength steels used for chassis construction. Along with that, it could include several safety features like a 360-degree camera, 6 airbags (standard), Level 2+ ADAS, Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), hill hold control, Electronic parking brake and more in its package. Just like the other Tata cars, if the Sumo comes into existence, we expect it to get a full 5-star safety rating.

Powertrains
Tata could include a multi-powertrain setup with the upcoming Sumo. The powertrains could be carried from the Sierra, which includes a trio of 1.5-litre engines – a NA petrol, a turbo petrol and a diesel engine. Alongside, Tata could also offer an electric powertrain with the model, featuring a battery pack of 63 kWh and 75 kWh (same as the Sierra).
