350-litre boot is large; additionally, the seats fold down flat in a 60:40 ratio.
The only charging provision for rear passengers is at an odd location; it’s near the rear parcel shelf.
Tata provides a 3.3kWh portable charger with every Nexon EV. This charger can be used with any 15 ampere AC charging socket and it will replenish the battery’s charge from 20 to100 percent in around nine hours, roughly 10 percent every hour. Using one of the few DC fast chargers, its battery can be recharged up to 80 percent in approximately one hour. As is the case with any lithium-ion battery, the last 10 percent, irrespective of whether you’re using an AC or DC charger, is the slowest to recharge, in an attempt to preserve the battery’s life.
As an introductory offer, Nexon EV users can avail of charging facilities (including fast charging) at all the Tata Power locations listed in the ‘Tata Power EZ Charge’ mobile application, free of charge.

I have done my 2nd service of my Nexon EV Lux. I drove 7800 km , 5 months over. I found 3 times there is sudden drop in battery percentage from 60% to 20% 1st time and 2nd time the battery percentage drop from 50% to 22%. This is really horrifying if u go for long drive then you will be in real soups. Sometimes I feel I have done a mistake in purchasing EV from TATA. Also, i have never got the range above 150 km. But they claimed 230 to 300 km which is fell absurd.
