Tata motors have introduced a 4X2 variant of the Aria in an attempt to boost the sales of this luxury mpV. Will it woo customers and rake in profits for the company? Let’s try to find out

Last winter Tata Motors showcased a vehicle that could be called their flagship model. this new vehicle also saw tata enter the luxury vehicle market for the Aria is the costliest and luxurious, well almost, tata passenger vehicle to date. It is designed by the Italians who are renowned for creating sinful designs that simply catch your eye. in the case of the Aria, however, I would say looks are subjective and would leave it that.

Recently Tata launched a new aria that is cheaper than the current model, has the same looks and features the same engine. However, there is something different about it. Let’s look into it.

So What’s ‘New’ In The Aria?
Technically, there is not much that sets the new Aria apart from the current model, well almost. it’s actually just a rear-wheel drive model, really! Unlike its costly sibling, the 4X4, this one only has a two-wheel drive configuration. the transmission now delivers power from the engine to the rear wheels only. the price has gone down a little with the range now starting at rs 13 lakh (otr, Pune). the price and drive wheels are the two major changes that differentiate the 4X4 from the 4X2. However, there is hardly anything that would loudly proclaim these differences between the two models. Both are available in three trims. the fully loaded aria that has 36 features is available in just the 4X4 configuration, though.
