Since its launch back in January, the Nexon facelift has had one additional variant (XZ+(S)) join its lineup

 

  • The Nexon is currently offered in six variants: XE, XM, XZ, XZ+, XZ+ (S) and XZ+ (O).

  • Potential limited edition variant could be an equivalent to the mid-spec XZ.

  • Key features in the XZ variant include 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, steering mounted controls,  auto-fold ORVMs, and multi-drive modes.

  • It is powered by 1.2-litre petrol and 1.5-litre diesel engines with 6-speed manual and AMT gearbox options.

Looks like Tata Motors has some tricks up its sleeve for the Nexon which was given a mid-life refresh back in January  A couple of surprise teasers have been revealed on the carmaker’s social media handles, with complete details being promised for a September 2 reveal. There’s no clear indication as to what these teasers mean, but they point towards a limited-edition XZ based variant or some feature updates.  

The Nexon in the teaser images doesn’t look any different to the one that’s currently on sale, sporting similar bits as the XZ variant like dual-barrel projector headlamps featuring integrated LED daytime running lights (DRLs), new fog lamp housing and revised LED taillamps. The Nexon pictured in this image also featured the 16-inch alloy wheels that are available from the XZ+ variant onwards.

 

Feature highlights for the XZ variant include cooled and illuminated glovebox, 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, steering mounted controls, multi-drive modes, manual climate control as well as traction control, hill assist and electronically adjustable auto-fold ORVMs.
