A render image is also available online that shows, how the SUV might look like. It has been shared by Motorbeam on their website. The artist has actually made no changes to the overall design of the SUV. The only change is the paint job. It now gets the same High-Street Gold colour as Altroz. Other cosmetic changes seen on the render image are the grille and the wheels.

The chrome grille with tri-arrow design inserts have been completely blacked out and the dual tone alloy wheels on the SUV have also been blacked out. The ORVMs, roof rail and the shark fin antenna is also finished in black. Overall, Tata Safari looks neat in this shade. This is just a digital render and the original version might be different from this image.
