Skoda Kylaq Vs Tata Nexon: We Compare Their Specifications In Detail!

The Skoda Kylaq has entered the subcompact SUV segment, which is a fierce space dominated by many well-equipped SUVs that offer buyers a complete overall package. In this competitive segment, the Tata Nexon is one such SUV that has attracted many buyers and is a common sight on our roads. 

So in this article, we will be comparing the specifications of the new Kylaq with that of the Nexon to find out how these two stack up against each other on paper. 

Let’s begin: 

Skoda Kylaq Vs Tata Nexon: Price

The Skoda Kylaq’s full price range will be out on December 2, however, the starting prices of both the SUVs are similar. We expect the Kylaq to undercut the Nexon’s top-spec prices, and max out around the Rs 15 lakh mark. For similar pricing, here’s a look at how their specifications compare: 

Skoda Kylaq Vs Tata Nexon: Dimensions 

While their lengths and heights are practically the same, they do differ slightly in terms of width and wheelbase. The Nexon stands taller, but it is the Kylaq which gets the larger wheelbase and that could lead to a more spacious cabin. 

Yes, the Kylaq’s boot space figures are greater, but there’s a catch. The area is calculated without the rear parcel tray being attached, which means that although it offers a larger boot space on paper, both SUVs might have a similar boot space if measured in the same manner. 

Skoda Kylaq Vs Tata Nexon: Features 

As seen above, the Nexon just punches ahead in terms of features. Over the Kylaq, it gets more speakers, a 360-degree camera, a larger driver’s display, front parking sensors, blind spot monitor, and a panoramic sunroof. The Kylaq on the other hand gets powered driver and co-driver seats along with ambient lighting, which the Nexon misses out on. 

Overall, both SUVs offer a feature-loaded cabin and won’t leave you asking for more. However, the Nexon’s extra features add a more premium and upmarket experience to the cabin.
