Tata Motors are gearing up for the launch of their new anticipated SUV boldly called the Nexon, which is short for ‘Next-On’ which signifies their inspiration, claiming to take things to the next level, since its début at the Auto Expo in 2016.
Tata Motors have developed two new engines for this eagerly anticipated SUV – there is the turbocharged 1.2-litre three-cylinder Revotron petrol engine which develops 110 PS and 170 Nm of torque. For the diesel buyer there is the 1.5-litre four-cylinder Revotorq motor which develops 110 PS and 260 Nm of torque. Both these engine options will be paired to a six-speed manual gearbox and will be equipped with multi-drive modes – Eco, City and Sport, which alter the Nexon’s performance capabilities.
Commenting on the occasion, Mayank Pareek, President, Passenger Vehicle Business Unit, Tata Motors said, “To introduce this all new SUV into the market, we are not leaving any stone unturned. We are once again introducing a product with an exciting package for our customers.
