Tata Nexon Launch Tomorrow

The Tata Nexon is all set to launch tomorrow as bookings for the same started earlier this month on September 11. The Nexon will mark Tata’s entry in the sub 4-metre compact SUV segment and is expected to be priced in the range of Rs 7 lakh to Rs 10 lakh. In case you know nothing about the baby SUV, here’s a quick lowdown.

What does it look like?

The Nexon resembles the concept that was showcased at the 2014 Auto Expo. The front of the car looks muscular with a big bumper and tall stance. The white ceramic line running across the sides with the big 16-inch alloy wheels adds to the muscular look of the car. The Nexon is Tata’s fourth product to feature the company’s IMPACT design philosophy.

Is it loaded with features?

In the safety department, features such as ABS, EBD, dual airbags and ISOFIX will be offered as standard across all variants. Other safety features such as Park Assist with camera and sensors, day/night IRVM, fog lamps and rear defogger will also be on offer depending on the variants. Comfort features on the Nexon include the Harman-powered ConnectNext infotainment system with a 6.5-inch touchscreen, automatic climate control, and steering-mounted controls for the audio system. Android Auto is also on offer at launch while Apple CarPlay will follow soon.

What about the engines?

A 1.2-litre Revotron petrol and a 1.5-litre Revotorq diesel engine will find their way in the Nexon’s engine bay. The petrol engine produces 110PS/170Nm while the diesel motor churns out 110PS/260Nm. Both engines will be offered with a 6-speed manual gearbox at launch. Automatic variants featuring an automated manual transmission (AMT) may follow soon. Some reports suggest that the Nexon will get the AMT before the end of the current financial year. The Nexon will also get the segment-first multi driving modes - City, Eco, and Sport.

The Nexon will take on the likes of the Vitara Brezza, Ford Ecosport, and the Honda WR-V.
