Be it the outgoing Nexon EV or the 2023 facelifted Nexon.ev, they want to achieve the same purpose - be the game changer in the Indian EV space and make the customer feel one with the car. With approx 70% EV market domination and 53,000+ customers in the last 3 years, the Nexon.ev has paved its way right into the masses' preference. The Nexon.ev itself has become an identity in itself and a pioneer in the EV market. Changing the perspective about the electric industry in India with such ease is no piece of cake.
The new Tata Nexon.ev has truly left me with many positives. With numerous upgrades and an iconic design, it's going to shake the industry and bring the standards of an EV vehicle a notch higher. As soon as you enter the car, you are surrounded by various engaging features and modern tech, most of which you would find in a car 2-3 segments above. Let's dive into some of those features and find out just how Tata Motors has taken an already impressive car to the next level.
EXTERIOR:
The new Nexon.ev retains its iconic design elements, which made it a hit previously, and now manages to bring in a new conceptcar-like design which catches your eye on the road. This design includes a sharper front end and gives it a more aerodynamic bodyline yet with a futuristic look. The Nexon.evs' new front bumper has some peculiar traits which set it apart from the Nexon's ICE counterpart. Staying with the front end, the Nexon.ev also features a dynamic LED lightbar integrated in line with the DRLs with a welcome and goodbye light sequence. The lightbar also doubles as a charging indicator while the car is plugged in. The DRLs also double as the indicators, which themselves are presented with a sequential animation.
