The Nexon Creative is the entry-level variant for automatic transmission options with the Tata SUV

2023 Tata Nexon

Tata Nexon can be had in four broad variants: Smart, Pure, Creative and Fearless.
Gets two engine options: a 120PS, 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engine and a 115PS, 1.5-litre diesel unit.
It is the entry-level option for automatic transmission options with both engines.
Features a 10.25-inch touchscreen, automatic climate control, 6 airbags (as standard) and a 360-degree camera.
The Nexon Creative variants are priced from Rs 11 lakh to Rs 14.30 lakh (introductory, ex-showroom).

The recently launched Tata Nexon facelift packs a new design and numerous feature upgrades. It is available in 4 broad variants, which Tata calls Personas, and each with further sub-variants. The mid-spec Creative persona is the one that gets the full scope of petrol and diesel powertrains offered with the Nexon SUV. It is further divided into three variants: Creative, Creative+ and Creative+ S, which are distinctive by their set of features. Here, we have compared all three Nexon Creative variants to see what each one has to offer.

Exterior

2023 Tata Nexon Sequential LED DRLs

Variant	Creative	Creative+ (over Creative)	Creative+ S (over Creative+)
Highlights	Bi-functional LED headlamps Sequential LED DRLs Body-coloured bumpers Body-coloured door handles Roof rails Connected tails lamps 16-inch alloy wheels	None	Electric sunroof (voice assisted)

When it comes to the overall look, all three variants look almost the same. The front, side and rear profiles have the same design elements, but the Nexon Creative+ S variant gets an electric sunroof over the other two variants, which is what the “S” stands for in the variant’s name.

Interior

Variant	Creative	Creative+ (over Creative)	Creative+ S (over Creative+)
Highlights	Dual-tone cabin 2-spoke steering wheel with illuminated Tata logo Chrome inserts on door handles Fabric upholstery Leather gear knob Variant-specific dashboard inserts	Rear parcel tray	None

Just like the exterior, the interior of the three variants is also the same. You get a dual-tone cabin, fabric seats and a touch of leather in all three Tata Nexon Creative variants, but from Creative+ onwards, you also get a rear parcel tray. If you get it in the variant-exclusive Ocean Blue exterior colour, you will get dashboard inserts to match.

Features

Variant	Creative	Creative+ (over Creative)	Creative+ S (over Creative+)
Highlights	7-inch touchscreen infotainment system Wired Android Auto & Apple CarPlay 7-inch semi-digital driver’s display 6-speaker sound system Auto AC with touch controls Height-adjustable driver seat Cooled glovebox Electrically foldable ORVMs Rear AC vents Push button start-stop Paddle shifters (Automatic variants)	10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system Wireless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay Auto folding ORVMs Automatic headlamps Cruise control Rain sensing wipers	Height adjustable front seatbelt

Here, the difference between the three is more significant. From the Nexon Creative+ variant onwards, you get the bigger touchscreen with wireless connectivity and more comfort and convenience features. However, the Creative+ S variant only offers a single feature over the Creative+ variant.

Safety

Variant	Creative	Creative+ (over Creative)	Creative+ S (over Creative+)
Highlights	6 airbags ABS with EBD Electronic stability control (ESC) Tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) Hill hold assist Traction control Anti-glare IRVM Rear parking camera Top mounted rear wiper and washer	Auto-dimming IRVM Front parking sensors 360-degree camera Blind view monitor	None

All variants get important safety features like 6 airbags, ABS with EBD, electronic stability control (ESC) and tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), but from the Creative+ variant onwards, you can also get the benefit of a 360-degree camera.

Price

Variant	Creative	Creartive+	Creative+ S
Petrol MT	Rs 11 lakh	Rs 11.70 lakh	Rs 12.20 lakh
Petrol AMT	Rs 11.70 lakh	Rs 12.40 lakh	Rs 12.90 lakh
Petrol DCT	Rs 12.20 lakh	Rs 12.90 lakh	Rs 13.40 lakh
Diesel MT	Rs 12.40 lakh	Rs 13.10 lakh	Rs 13.60 lakh
Diesel AMT	Rs 13 lakh	Rs 13.80 lakh	Rs 14.30 lakh

* All prices are introductory ex-showroom Delhi

The Tata Nexon Creative variant starts from Rs 11 lakh and goes all the way up to Rs 14.30 lakh (ex-showroom). The regular Creative variant is well equipped in itself, but if you want some of the highlight features of the new Tata Nexon like the bigger touchscreen and 360-degree camera, you’ll have to shell out up to Rs 80,000 more. Furthermore, if a sunroof is a priority for you, you’ll have to pay Rs 50,000 more over the Nexon Creative+ variant.

Between the three, the Nexon Creative+ easily justifies its premium over the regular Creative variant and would be our recommended pick.

The 2023 Tata Nexon is priced between Rs 8.10 lakh and Rs 15.50 lakh (introductory, ex-showroom) and is a rival to the likes of Kia Sonet, Hyundai Venue, Maruti Brezza and Mahindra XUV300.
