<p>After a major facelift of India’s homegrown popular SUV Safari in 2011, its second generation avatar Storme managed to grab a lot of attention from SUV lovers in the country. Tata managed to work on the number of issues that the old generation full sized SUV faced and it was also offered with a range of modern day features to make it an urban drive. On the exterior front, its facade remains a little subjective with a hunkered down flat bonnet which now sits a little low than the previous generation. Other than that, very fine sculpted lines on the hood does add character to this SUV. You now get a full chrome bar at the front grille with Storme embossed on it. While the addition of projector headlamps on the sweptback headlight cluster makes it appear attractive and wider as well from the front. Tata badge sits right between the all black mesh styled front grille while the addition of small circular fog lamps on the front bumper tones down its masculine attire on the whole. You don’t really get a full fledged skid plate at the front, which would have done wonders to its off road look, but Tata does offer pseudo air vent fins which are quite decent to look at. The side still inherits the old school charm of the old Safari while the Storme badge brings in some extra features such as stylish five spoke 16 inch alloy wheels along with aggressive wheel arches as well. Its large window panes and an all glass C and D pillar mounted with integrated roof rails makes for a distinct Safari look even in its Storme avatar. Step onto the back and one can find an all new rear profile with extensive use of black cladding on the tail gate as well as on the rear bumper. To make this full fledged SUV more premium, Tata has also added a thick chrome bar at the tail gate with TATA embossed which looks a little too much with a Tata badge that is already placed just above the chrome bar. Additional equipment include chrome tipped dual exhausts on the rear bumper along with rear wraparound reflectors that makes this old school SUV look quite appealing.
