On the upside, only a couple of variants have gotten costlier

Tata Nexon EV prices increased by Rs 9,000.
Prices of XM, XZ+ Dark, and XZ+ Lux Dark remain unchanged.
The 129PS electric motor draws power from a 30.2kWh battery pack.
Has an ARAI-claimed range of 312km.

Tata Motors has hiked the prices of the Nexon EV yet again. This is the third time this year that the electric compact SUV has gotten dearer. However, the one silver lining could be that only the XZ+ and XZ+ Lux variants have become costlier; the others still retail at the same price as before.

Take a look at the latest prices:

	Old Price	New Price	Difference
XM	Rs 13.99 lakh	Rs 13.99 lakh	NIL
XZ+	Rs 15.56 lakh	Rs 15.65 lakh	Rs 9,000
XZ+ Lux	Rs 16.56 lakh	Rs 16.65 lakh	Rs 9,000
XZ+ Dark	Rs 15.99 lakh	Rs 15.99 lakh	NIL
XZ+ Lux Dark	Rs 16.85 lakh	Rs 16.85 lakh	NIL

The corresponding Dark Editions of the XZ+ and XZ+ Lux haven’t gotten a hike. Therefore, the gap between the standard and Dark Editions has now been reduced to Rs 34,000 for the XZ+ (from Rs 43,000) and Rs 20,000 for the XZ+ Lux (from Rs 29,000), respectively.

The Nexon EV is propelled by a 129PS/245Nm electric motor that draws power from a 30.2kWh battery pack. The electric SUV has an ARAI-claimed range of 312km. The battery pack supports fast charging and can be recharged from 0-80 percent in an hour. Chances are that the Nexon EV will get a more powerful 136PS electric motor in the future.
