      Best family car in the 12 lakh segment. Better than other cars in terms of features and quality. It’s one of the best in the SUV segment compared to cheaply built alternatives.

      The 2019 BS4 Nexon Diesel is truly one of the best cars in its class. The diesel mileage is superb, making it highly economical for long drives and daily use. When it comes to safety and ride quality, it's simply wow — solid on the road and confidence-inspiring. The music system is high quality, adding to the overall driving experience. Everything about this car is top-notch. I’m so impressed that my next buy will be the Nexon EV. A perfect blend of performance, comfort, and value.
