Tata Motors says that its AMT-equipped Nexon offers a fair bit more than mere convenience. Does it?
TATA’S NEW NEXON IS BRILLIANT. It not only walked away with the Design of the Year and Compact SUV of the Year awards at the 10th Times Auto Awards in partnership with evo India and Fast Bikes India but also ended up as top cat, bagging the prestigious Car of the Year title. But the story continues.
The newsmaker
For Tata Motors has now decided to offer #LevelNex convenience by adding an AMT to the Nexon. Moreover, you will get this convenience for both petrol and diesel variants (a first for a compact SUV) as long as you buy the top-of-the-line trim. Christened HyprDrive, Tata says it offers a lot more than just convenience. Most notably, a bunch of extras, like a Creep function, a Kickdown mode and what Tata Motors calls Fast-Off.
