Tata Nexon Introduces New Entry-Level Variants

Tata Motors has made a significant announcement in the competitive compact SUV segment with the introduction of new entry-level variants for the Tata Nexon.

This move comes as Tata’s response to the recent launch of the XUV 3XO by Mahindra, aiming to enhance its market position and appeal to a wider range of customers.

New Pricing and Variants

The Tata Nexon now boasts an even more attractive starting price, with the petrol variant available from Rs 8 lakh and the diesel variant from Rs 10 lakh. Additionally, Tata has introduced two new entry-level diesel variants: Smart + and Smart + S, priced at Rs 10 lakh and Rs 10.60 lakh respectively. These new offerings not only expand the Nexon lineup but also make it more accessible to budget-conscious buyers.

Detailed Pricing and Variant Information

• Petrol Variant:
• Smart (O): Rs 8 lakh
• Diesel Variants:

• Smart + S: Rs 10.60 lakh

Furthermore, Tata has slashed prices for existing variants, with the Smart + and Smart + S variants now available at reduced prices of Rs 8.90 lakh and Rs 9.40 lakh respectively, making the Nexon even more appealing to potential buyers.

Powertrain and Equipment

Despite the introduction of new variants, Tata has maintained the stellar performance and feature-rich nature of the Nexon. The compact SUV continues to be powered by a choice of two engines: a 1.2-litre turbo-petrol and a 1.5-litre diesel, delivering robust performance and efficiency. Transmission options include manual and automatic variants.

Features and Safety

The Tata Nexon is equipped with an array of features, including a 10.25-inch touchscreen, a fully digital driver’s display, wireless charger, ventilated seats, cruise control, and a premium JBL sound system. Moreover, safety is paramount, with the Nexon boasting advanced features such as six airbags, hill-start assist, electronic stability program (ESP), tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS), and a 360-degree camera.

Competitive Landscape

The Tata Nexon faces stiff competition in the compact SUV segment from rivals such as the Mahindra XUV 3XO, Kia Sonet, Hyundai Venue, Maruti Brezza, Ford EcoSport, Toyota Taisor, Nissan Magnite, and Renault Kiger. However, with its attractive pricing, feature-packed offerings, and renowned reliability, the Nexon continues to carve a niche for itself in the market.
