      The Tata Nexon truly impresses with its bold design and strong performance. I really like this car for its excellent stability on the road and smooth engine performance. It stands out with advanced safety features, offering great peace of mind. As India’s first iCNG technology car with a dual-cylinder setup, the Nexon brings innovation and practicality together. A great step forward by Tata—stylish, safe, and future-ready

      Overall, the car is very good in terms of comfort, safety, and convenience. It offers a smooth and enjoyable driving experience. However, there is a persistent issue while driving on CNG — the car occasionally breaks acceleration. This problem has been present since purchase, and despite multiple visits to the service center, the issue remains unresolved. While the car performs well otherwise, this technical concern needs attention for a truly worry-free experience.
