Tata is apparently gearing up to launch the 2022 refresh of its Nexon EV in India soon. A new report has revealed the possible launch date of the new car alongside some of its expected specifications and even pricing.
According to a RushLane report, the Indian Conglomerate is planning on announcing the 2022 Nexon EV in India on the 6th of April 2022. The launch will follow a long period of testing the car on public roads. For those unaware, the Nexon EV is currently the market leader in the electric vehicle segment in India, accounting for 60 percent of the total electric car sales in the region. And now, the brand is set to launch a new model with refreshed specifications for improved range and power.
Recently, we had reported on Tata hiking the price of the Nexon EV along with some other models as well. So, the 2022 Nexon EV is likely to arrive with higher specifications like larger battery and a longer driving range and even more power. In other words, it would likely launch with a higher price tag as well. The brand could possible decide to bump the price of the new model by around 300,000 to 400,000 INR (roughly 3,930 to 5,240 US Dollars) over the current generation.
Despite its price bump, the 2022 Nexon EV will still compete with other EVs from rival brands. This includes the likes of the Hyundai Kona EV and MG ZS EV with its range. Since its a new refreshed model, the 2022 edition could also offer changes to offer better luxury. Similarly, it is rumored to get a new 40kWh battery pack as well that could help it provide a maximum of 300 kilometers of ARAI certified range.
