Tata Nexon CNG vs Maruti Suzuki Brezza CNg
Once launched, the upcoming Tata Nexon CNG SUV is going to be the second compact SUV in the country with a petrol-CNG bi-fuel powertrain after the Maruti Suzuki Brezza.

Tata Motors took centre stage at the recently concluded Bharat Mobility Show 2024 by showing a wide range of near-production cars. One of them was the Nexon iCNG, which comes as a petrol-CNG bi-fuel powered iteration of the highly popular compact SUV. With the growing demand and sales for CNG-powered passenger vehicles in India, automakers like Maruti Suzuki, Tata Motors and Hyundai have been introducing petrol-CNG products to offer customers wider powertrain options, including fuel-efficient and more value-for-money that ensure lower cost of ownership compared to petrol-only or diesel-only passenger vehicles.

Once launched, the upcoming Tata Nexon CNG SUV is going to be the second compact SUV in the country with a petrol-CNG bi-fuel powertrain. The first one is the Maruti Suzuki Brezza CNG, which has been already on sale. When launched, the Tata Nexon CNG will compete with the Maruti Suzuki Brezza CNG, intensifying the competition in this segment.
