We are familiar with the Kaziranga, Dark, and Gold Editions from Tata Motors for its SUV range which includes the Tata Punch, Tata Nexon, Tata Harrier, and the Tata Safari. Now for 2022, the company has yet again introduced a new range of special editions that add the elegance of a business class flight to its SUVs, but more importantly to boost the sales of its SUVs and offer a slew of options to its customers for the festive season. Meet the new Jet Editions for its Tata Nexon ICE, Tata Nexon EV, Tata Harrier, and Tata Safari that add whole new visual updates and feature upgrades over the regular versions. We take you through each of the new elements offered on the Jet Editions.
Jet Edition adds a new dual-tone earthy bronze and silver roof paint scheme to all the SUVs.

The Jet editions are part of the XZ+ LUX trim of Tata Nexon EV Max and Nexon EV Prime. What it means is that Tata is offering additional features to the Jet Editions over and above the trims it's based on. Let's start with the exterior upgrades.

All the cars get a dual-tone paint finish with an earthy bronze body and a platinum silver roof, this colour is called Starlight and adds a new layer of character to the car's overall design. The silver skid plates at the front & rear along with the new Jet-Black alloy wheels highlight the SUV's character and sum up the changes to differentiate it from the regular or even the special editions.
The changes are also carried over to the cabin which is clad in dual-tone Oyster White & Granite Black, along with techno-steel bronze finish and accents on the door and floor consoles giving it a premium and upmarket appeal. There’s also #Jet embroidery on the front headrests and deco stitching on the seats in a bronze thread, to remind you which special edition you’re driving. The cabin of the Harrier and Safari Jet Editions are slightly different with additional elements such as the perforated Oyster White – Benecke-Kaliko leatherette seats with bronze inserts to give an upmarket appeal.
