Tata Nexon, India’s top-selling subcompact SUV, was first introduced in 2017 and received its last mid-life update in 2020. Now, the model is all set to enter into its new generation in the country. The carmaker has begun testing the all-new Nexon that’s recently caught on camera wearing heavy camouflage. As of now, there is no official on its launch timeline and details. Reports suggest that the new Tata Nexon will hit showrooms sometime in 2024.
Here’re some key details of the new-gen Nexon that we know so far
Curvv Inspired Design
Major cosmetic changes are expected to be made to its front and rear profile. The spy images reveal that the new Tata Nexon will derive some of its design elements from the Curvv concept including the headlamp setup. The Curvv concept, which was showcased at this year’s Auto Expo, previews Tata’s Hyundai Creta rival that will come sometime in next year. The 2024 Tata Nexon will feature a newly-designed front grille with a new connected LED light bar placed just above it, revised front bumper and central air intake. The rear section will have taillamp clusters, which will be connected via a LED light bar. The subcompact SUV might also come with a new set of alloy wheels.
New Touchscreen Info
Interior details of the new Tata Nexon are still under the wraps. Though, the SUV is likely to receive a new 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system supporting the latest smartphone connectivity and voice command function. The Info unit will have minimalist and clean graphics with large text. There might also be a new digital cluster. Its dashboard design could also be revised. Most of features will be carried forward from the current generation.
New Turbo-Petrol Engine
The 2024 Tata Nexon is expected to be offered with a new 1.2L turbo petrol engine that was unveiled at the 16th Edition of the Delhi Auto Expo. The motor pushes out a peak power of 125bhp and 225Nm of torque. The SUV will also come with the existing 1.5L diesel engine that’s good enough for 110bhp. Both manual and AMT gearboxes will be on offer.
