Tata Nexon EV Crosses Record Production Milestone; This Is How Many Tata Has Sold!

In a landmark achievement for Tata Motors, the carmaker has announced that the Nexon EV has achieved the six digit production milestone, with more than 1 lakh cars on the road! This figure also comes as part of the broader announcement of selling more than 2.5 lakh EVs in India, making it the largest electric carmaker by volume in the country. 

A Quick Recap

Launched in 2020, the Nexon EV is often credited as being the first mass-market electric car in India to become mainstream. Initially offered with just a 30.2kWh battery pack giving 312km of claimed range, the SUV quickly grew popular for its value-for-money proposition, compact proportions and a long feature list.

Tata Motors later launched the Nexon EV Max in 2022, which came with a larger 40.5kWh battery pack and an astounding (for its time) 453km of claimed range. It also came with some more features to justify the price tag such as an electronic parking brake with auto hold and even a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system (which was added at a later stage). 

Come 2023, the Tata Nexon EV received its first-ever facelift. And this time around, Tata ensured it look very different from its ICE sibling with a completely revamped fascia. Even the equipment it boasted was slightly more than its fossil fuel sibling. And as time went by, it also got major feature upgrades like ADAS and a panoramic sunroof. All of this has ensured the Tata Nexon EV continues to be a very popular option in its segment.
