Volta Trucks appoints new CEO

Tata Motors today celebrated the rollout of the 3,00,000th Nexon from its Ranjangaon facility in Pune. Since the 200k rollout in June 2021, Tata Motors recorded 100k units of the Nexon, in less than eight months, the company said in a release. 

Driven and proven over 50 million kms, the Nexon EV has saved close to 9860 tonnes of CO2 emissions, which is equivalent to the planting of 1.47 Lakh trees, the company claimed.  

Tata Motors also launched four new variants in the top trims of the compact SUV - the XZ+ (P) / XZA+ (P) and XZ+ (HS) / XZA+ (HS) in both petrol & diesel with a new colour option in Royale Blue. These variants will also be offered in the Dark avatar. With bookings commencing today, the new variants will be available across all Tata Motors authorised dealerships. 

Shailesh Chandra, Managing Director, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd., and Tata Passenger Electric Mobility Ltd. said, “It is indeed a moment of pride to witness the rollout of the 3,00,000th Tata Nexon – a landmark product in the turnaround of Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles. Being an integral part of the New Forever range, brand Nexon has successfully established its popularity in the compact SUV segment since its launch in 2017 and has become a part of many families. Adding to the popularity of the ICE variant, the Nexon EV too has created a niche for itself and has gained immense recognition from its customers. The story of building a strong and safe SUV brand started with the Nexon – being the first Global NCAP 5 star rated car in India. Creating benchmarks in safety, Tata Nexon has also been widely appreciated for its striking design, superior ride and handling characteristics, spirited performance, and comfort.” 

He added, “The success of Nexon has been pivotal in proving our leadership in the SUV segment and to rejoice this momentous occasion, we have expanded our Nexon portfolio by adding four new variants in the line-up for our customers. We are confident that the Nexon will continue to help expand our customer base and bolster the growth of Tata Motors in the future.” 

The new Nexon XZ+ (P) / XZA+ (P) variants will be equipped with additional premium features such as Premium Benecke Kaliko Leatherette ventilated front seats, air purifier and auto dimming IRVM. Additionally, the new XZ+ (HS) / XZA+ (HS) variants will sport an air purifier to make the drives healthier for the occupants. These additional features will also be available in their respective #Dark editions, the release said. (MT)
