Tata Motors has rolled out the first lot of its new sub-4m SUV, the Nexon, from its Ranjangaon facility. This facility is shared by both Tata and Fiat, and you can also notice the parked Jeep Compass on the right in the image below.
The homegrown automaker recently revealed the drivetrain options of the Nexon, and it is expected to be launched around the festive season.
Up front, it features Tata’s signature grille (finished in gloss black), which is flanked by chunky projector headlamps featuring daytime running LEDs and a halogen high beam.
There are chunky circular foglamps as well with contrasting ceramic elements. It rides on diamond-cut alloy wheels and comes with cladding on its wheel arches to emphasise its SUV DNA.
It is based on the Zest and Bolt’s platform and features a ground clearance of 200mm. The Nexon is powered by brand new turbocharged 1.2-litre petrol and 1.5-litre diesel engines from Tata’s Revotron and Revotorq families, respectively.
Both the engines will be mated to a brand new 6-speed manual gearbox. Check out the specifications of the engines Interestingly, Tata Motors will soon dispatch the first batch of SUVs ahead of its launch to dealerships for prospective customers to have a look and feel of it.
