Other features include alloy wheels, projector head lamps, body coloured bumpers & ORVM, LED daytime running lights, turn indicators on ORVM, LED guide rings on the head lamps, chrome inserts on the outside, and other premium quality Tata parts, all of which together render a sophisticated and classy appeal to the vehicle.
