The Indian SUV market is growing rapidly, and Tata Motors is right on track with the new Tata Nexon 2025. This updated version of Tata’s best-selling SUV brings a fresh design, upgraded features, and more comfort—making it one of the most value-packed compact SUVs out there.
Whether you’re looking for a city-friendly ride or a highway-ready cruiser, the new Nexon strikes a fine balance between design, technology, and safety. Tata continues to focus on build quality and safety ratings, which makes it a strong contender in its class.
Let’s break down everything the 2025 Nexon has to offer.
Design
The 2025 Tata Nexon gets a big visual upgrade. While its overall silhouette remains familiar, both the front and rear have seen major cosmetic enhancements. A sleek LED DRL strip now stretches across the front, and the sharper, lower-mounted headlamps add a sporty edge.
The grille is bolder, the bumper more muscular, and the side profile stands out with dual-tone roof options and diamond-cut alloy wheels. At the back, the connected LED tail lamps with animated lighting give it a modern and futuristic vibe.
It’s stylish, rugged, and youthful—exactly what today’s SUV buyers want.
Engine
The Nexon 2025 comes with two engine options. There’s a 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine and a 1.5-litre diesel engine. Both engines meet the latest BS6 Phase 2 norms and offer solid performance.
Here’s what you get:
- Petrol: 120 bhp, 170 Nm torque
- Diesel: 115 bhp, 260 Nm torque
You also get plenty of gearbox choices. There’s a 6-speed manual, 6-speed AMT, and for petrol buyers, a smooth 7-speed DCT automatic.
Performance-wise, the petrol feels refined for city use, while the diesel is torquey and better suited for long drives or highway cruising.
Ride
Tata has fine-tuned the Nexon’s suspension to give you a smooth ride, no matter how rough the road gets. It glides over potholes, speed breakers, and uneven patches comfortably.
The steering is light during low-speed city drives and offers more weight and control at higher speeds. With a 209 mm ground clearance, the Nexon handles rough roads without scraping underneath. It stays composed in corners and offers a solid, planted feel.
Features
The Nexon is more tech-loaded than ever before. It now gets a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The digital instrument cluster and Tata’s IRA connected car system add to the smart experience.
Standout features include:
- Ventilated front seats
- Wireless charger
- Air purifier
- Voice assistant in multiple Indian languages
- JBL sound system
- 360-degree camera with front and rear sensors
- Multiple drive modes: Eco, City, and Sport
The interior looks and feels more premium, with better plastics and a more thoughtful dashboard layout.
Mileage
The Nexon does pretty well on the mileage front, considering it’s a turbocharged SUV. Here’s what to expect:
| Variant | Transmission | Mileage (km/l) |
|---|---|---|
| Petrol Manual | 6-speed MT | 17.4 |
| Petrol DCT | 7-speed DCT | 17.2 |
| Diesel Manual | 6-speed MT | 23.2 |
| Diesel AMT | 6-speed AMT | 24.1 |
These are impressive numbers for both city use and highway cruising.
