Tata teases 'brand new electric suv' concept ahead of debut next week
Tata Motors has teased the arrival of a new electric SUV concept that is slated to see the light of the day on April 6th. Albeit, there is no official indication as to what this model is going to be, it could either be an extension to the already present model range, or a completely new car concept all together. Whatever it may be, it is certain that Tata is all in on the electric technology and gunning to expand its battery-powered portfolio.
Rumours hint that a new, longer-ranged Nexon EV is lurking around the corner and might be unveiled soon but nothing is officially confirmed as of yet.
