Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

BMW X3
- The updated design makes it look modern and the massive illuminated kidney grille stands out.
- The cabin has a sporty design which looks very appealing for younger buyers.
- Its ride is comfortable with good space for 5 occupants.
- No significant miss in the features list and it comes with an extensive safety net.
Tata Nexon
- Futuristic design with interesting details: LED daytime running lamps and tail lamps with animations, 16-inch alloy wheels, and full-LED headlamps. Gives it great road presence.
- Has every imaginable feature: panoramic sunroof, front seat ventilation, 360° camera, leatherette upholstery. Feels premium.
- Impressive infotainment package: 10.25-inch touchscreen, 10.25-inch driver’s display and a brilliant JBL sound system.
- Available with petrol and diesel engines, both offered with automatic transmissions.

BMW X3
- While it does look distinctive, some design elements might not appeal to everyone.
- Parts of the cabin don’t feel as rich or premium as they should at this price.
- While the performance is good, you don’t get the exciting handling package you expect from a BMW.
Tata Nexon
- Interior storage space is poor. No cupholders, lack of space for phones/wallets hampers everyday usability.
- Fit and finish could be improved in the interior. Misaligned panels take away from the experience.
