Exciting news awaits those eagerly anticipating the Tata Nexon CNG. Tata Motors is gearing up to launch the CNG variant of its popular SUV during the upcoming festive season. This move is expected to bolster Tata’s position in the CNG SUV segment, potentially challenging Maruti Suzuki Brezza’s dominance in the sub-4 meter compact SUV market.
Nexon CNG: A Game-Changer in the Segment
According to a recent report from Autocar India, the Tata Nexon CNG will come with both manual and AMT (Automated Manual Transmission) gearbox options, providing more versatility and choice for consumers. This development follows the model’s showcase at the India Mobility Expo earlier this year, where Tata confirmed that the Nexon CNG would feature dual CNG cylinders, similar to the Punch CNG. This design ensures that customers won’t have to compromise on boot space, making it a practical option for families.
Power and Performance
The Tata Nexon CNG will be powered by a 1.2-liter turbocharged 3-cylinder petrol engine, making it the first CNG SUV in India to boast a turbocharged engine. This engine setup promises a good balance of power and fuel efficiency, which is sure to appeal to a wide range of buyers. Tata Motors has always prioritized safety in its vehicles, and the Nexon CNG is expected to maintain this legacy. The SUV is likely to come equipped with multiple airbags, a 360-degree camera, and a 5-star safety rating, ensuring peace of mind for its passengers.

The SUV’s design and aesthetics are expected to remain consistent with the current Nexon models, offering a familiar yet enhanced driving experience.
Tata Motors’ Strategy
Tata Motors is also preparing to launch the petrol and diesel variants of its SUV Coupe, Tata Curvv, with pricing expected to be revealed on September 2. The introduction of the Nexon CNG, alongside these models, underscores Tata’s commitment to providing a diverse range of options for Indian consumers.
