Tata Nexon XZ Launched Starting @ INR 7.99 Lakh

Tata Nexon XZ was recently launched in India for INR 7.99 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). XZ comes as second most loaded trim in the popular Nexon lineup, carrying both petrol and diesel engine option. However, Nexon XZ diesel is priced higher at INR 8.99 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). This typical variant help buyers decide better when switching between different variants as price gap between XT and XZ+ variant earlier left an empty space for rival Ford EcoSport and Maruti Vitara Brezza to place a rivalling variant. As it is placed lower to XZ+, certain features will definitely be missed for cost cutting.
