Tata Motors announced a price hike of its compact SUV Nexon in November last year by up to ₹11,000. This resulted in a revised price range for the Nexon range, which is currently available between ₹7.30 lakh and ₹13.35 lakh (ex-showroom). However, despite the price hike appeal of this compact SUV continues, as suggests the latest sales data.
The Nexon is powered by a 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine, while there is a 1.5-litre turbocharged diesel on offer as well. The petrol motor churns out 120 hp of power, while the diesel variant kicks out 110 hp of power. Tata Nexon is also available in a pure electric variant, which is currently the bestselling electric car in India.
Tata Motors hiked the pricing of its Punch sub-compact SUV too. The SUV witnessed a price hike leading up to ₹15,000 earlier this year, resulting in it being available from ₹5.64 lakh (ex-showroom). However, the price hike didn't affect its appeal.
