    Tata has hit the ball out of the park with the Nexon EV. This one is undeniably the smoothest and most refined car to wear a Tata badge. It is zippy and very user friendly, and those who enjoy driving will love its sprinting abilities and its sporty driving manners. It has other strengths too, like a mature ride, and it aces space, comfort and practicality. While this electric vehicle commands a hefty premium over the ICE versions, factor in the government subsidies and its extremely low running costs and it will begin to make financial sense. With an ability to travel approximately 216km on a full charge in the city, this EV’s range is pretty respectable, but nowhere close to its advertised 312km. As an urban runabout, the Nexon EV is as good as it gets, and if your usage is restricted to intra-city commutes and you can arrange for a charging provision, the Nexon EV could be right up your alley.

    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.
