        It is good. But the only problem is it's mileage. And it is a 1000-cc engine with a turbo. During traffic, it's tradition heats up fast. Rest it is a good family car. Hyundai is not using the good material now in the body shape of cars. But the cost is very high as compared with the Honda Elevate.

        Best vehicle I've ever owned. The best car under budget is this one. Both this model and this car appeal to me. I'm grateful, Tata Motors.

        A compact SUV with a combination of features, performance, and style is the Tata Nexon. All things considered, the Tata Nexon is a very attractive, well-equipped, and secure small SUV choice.
