Tata Safari Storme review, test drive

The Storme betters the old Safari on fuel efficiency. It gave us 10.1kpl in the city and 13.2kpl on the highway against the old one’s 8.7kpl and 13.1kpl, respectively. We put these improvements down to the Storme’s 35kg lighter kerb weight. That said, the highway figure should have been better as the Storme’s gearing is taller than the old car’s. But remember, its aerodynamic properties are still similar to the old car’s.
