Tata Nexon.ev rivals
As before, the Nexon.ev continues to rival the Mahindra XUV400 EV (Rs 15.99 lakh-19.39 lakh), MG ZS EV (Rs 23.38 lakh-27.90 lakh) and Hyundai Kona Electric (Rs 23.84 lakh). The pre-facelift Nexon EV won our comparison test with the XUV400 as it offered much more in terms of features. This continues as the Nexon.ev now has many more features with a very marginal price hike over the pre-facelift model.Â
