The Tata Nexon EV is all set to launch in India soon. The homegrown carmaker has stated that the prices of the Nexon electric are likely to fall in the range of Rs 15 lakh to Rs 17 lakh (ex-showroom). This e-SUV uses Tata’s Ziptron electric vehicle technology and comes with a 30.2 kWh Lithium-ion polymer, liquid-cooled battery pack. The 3 phase permanent magnet synchronous motor that this battery pack sends its power to, is capable of churning out 129 hp of power along with 245 Nm of peak torque. The Tata Nexon EV promises a range of more than 300 km on a single charge. It can be charged to 80 per cent with the help of a DC fast charger in 60 minutes and up to 100 per cent in 8 hours when connected to an AC fast charger. Tata will be offering the Nexon electric in three variants. Here is a detailed feature-wise break-up of the same!

When the Tata Nexon EV is launched in India, it will exist as our country’s first all-electric subcompact SUV. However, soon, it will be joined by the electric version of the Mahindra XUV300. The later is expected to fall in a similar price range of the Nexon. Not only this, but we expect it to offer specifications in a similar ballpark as well.
Tata Motors has officially commenced the bookings of the Nexon EV in India. Interested customers can book the same through the vehicle’s microsite by paying a token amount of Rs 21,000. Mind you, at the moment, the electric Nexon is available only in select cities of the country and will retail through select dealership outlets.
