Tata Nexon EV Dark Edition Launched In India

Tata has launched the Dark Edition trim of the Nexon EV in India at a starting price of INR 15.99 Lakhs. The Nexon EV is finished in a Midnight black paint shade and retains the blue highlights that help set it apart from the regular Nexon on the nose. The blue highlights on the beltline though are replaced by satin black inserts. The blacked-out theme carries to the inside as well, with leatherette upholstery with blue inserts and darkened trim inserts. Interestingly, the Nexon EV XZ+ trim additionally gets split-folding rear seats – a feature only available on the fully-loaded XZ+ Lux trim of the standard electric SUV – and a tire pressure monitor is standard fit as well. There are no mechanical changes with the EV continuing to be powered by a front-mounted electric motor delivering 129hp. The motor is paired with a 30.2kWh battery that gives the compact SUV a claimed range of 312km on a single charge.
