Intro:
The Tata Nexon: there is one good thing for you to know about it: how it has been performing in real life, on-road stories, and what people have experienced with this car. I’ve driven the Tata Nexon 2025 for more than 10,000 km in the city and on highways.
What I’ve discovered is that it really is the ultimate electric SUV, great for families (it seats five most comfortably). It is modern-looking, very fuel-efficient and one of the best cars in India, thereby carrying great safety ratings

Performance Review and Mileage of 10,000 km
The Tata Nexon is a very nice car in India, and after driving 10,000 km, it is amazing. When travelling in a city, you need to have a Conqueror pickup because it is the finest pickup, and the car body is very good. Its highway stability is nice, and 100-120 kmph cruising makes you feel confident. The fuel economy is great, too. The petrol options give 15 km/h in the city and 18 km/h on highways.
These are the most obvious features in terms of comfort and a luxury feel: ventilated seats (very good after being stuck in extreme heat), wireless charging, a 10.25-inch infotainment system, and electric adjustment. It will easily seat 5 people.
Maintenance Cost of Tata Nexon
To pass each of these stages, the first service will be available for free or 1500 km (routine check-up), while the second service is set at 7500 km and is worth around INR 5000-6000. The price is about 10,000 km per 30,000 km. This depends on the work done on the car. If not, it is more expensive, and an SUV has a cheaper service.

Final Thoughts
Because the Tata Nexon EV is one of India’s best-selling cars, thanks to its combination of power and comfort, it feels like nothing short of an SUV driven on the roads, but it feels like a mini-value car. It has also become the leader in the EV category, and that attracts many. It’s simple and modern in design, and the fact that it performs like a performance PC has people squirming in their seats. I’ve driven it for more than 10 thousand kilometres and have not had issues. It’s perfect for a family.
