Why is the Tata Nexon India's Most Loved Compact SUV?

 

The Tata Nexon has swiftly become one of India's most popular compact SUVs since its launch in 2017. This sub-4 meter SUV packs a punch with its bold styling, feature-loaded interior, powerful petrol and diesel engines, and competitive pricing. Here's a closer look at the Tata Nexon price and what makes the car a hit among Indian buyers:

Striking Exterior Styling

The Nexon turns heads with its sporty coupe-SUV design. The front features a bold grille flanked by sleek headlamps. Flared wheel arches and black cladding add to the muscular stance. At the rear, wraparound taillights give it a distinctive look. With dimensions of 3995mm (length) x 1804mm (width) x 1606mm (height) and 208mm ground clearance, the Nexon has an imposing road presence for a compact SUV. It's available in attractive dual-tone colour options like Creative Ocean Blue, Flame Red, Pristine White, and Daytona Grey.

Feature-Loaded Interiors

Step inside the Nexon, and you're greeted by a modern cabin packed with features. The dashboard gets a floating touchscreen infotainment system, a digital instrument cluster, and automatic climate control on higher trims. Key interior features include:

  • 10.25-inch Touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay
  • Fully Digital Instrument Cluster
  • Multi-Functional Steering Wheel
  • Automatic Climate Control
  • Cooled Glovebox
  • Electric Sunroof
  • Ambient Lighting
  • Cruise Control
  • Push Button Start/Stop

The Nexon offers excellent space for 4 adults and has a 352-litre boot. The interior quality and trim materials feel premium and built to last.

Powerful Yet Efficient Engine Options

The Nexon comes with the choice of two BS6-compliant engine options:

1.2L Turbo Petrol

  • 120hp power & 170Nm torque
  • 6-speed manual / AMT / 7-speed DCT auto
  • 17-18 kmpl mileage

1.5L Diesel

  • 110hp power & 260Nm torque
  • 6-speed manual / AMT
  • 23-24 kmpl mileage

Both engines deliver an exciting drive experience with smooth power delivery and strong performance. The petrol engine has excellent drivability in city traffic while the diesel motor cruises effortlessly on highways. The automatic gearboxes add to the convenience.
