Tata Nexon EV subscription prices cut
Tata Motors has cut the monthly subscription rates for the Tata Nexon EV. While the monthly charge for the 12-month plan remains unchanged, those for the 24 and 36 month periods have been reduced. However, these reduced prices are effective only for the 1,500 km usage limit and not the 2,000 and 2,500km limit.
For Mumbai, prices of the 24-month tenure have been reduced by Rs 3,800 to Rs 33,700/month. For the 36 month tenure, this has dropped by Rs 3,500 to Rs 31,400. The monthly charge for the 12-month plan remains unchanged at Rs 36,700, itself a drop from the earlier fee. Customers still need to pay a Rs 50,000 security deposit. Like the earlier fee, this also includes vehicle registration and road tax. Additional benefits include comprehensive insurance coverage, on-call roadside assistance plus free maintenance with periodic servicing and doorstep delivery. Customers will also get their own EV charger which can be installed at their home or office. After completion of the necessary paperwork, consumers need to pay a one-time token amount of Rs 5,000, a Rs 45,000 security deposit and a month's subscription fee in advance. The offer is valid in Delhi/NCR, Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad and Bengaluru.
Currently, the Nexon EV XZ+ is being offered through this platform, a step down from the XZ+ Lux supplied earlier. A new vehicle will be provided to the consumers when they subscribe, with the three colour options to chose from. These vehicles will carry the black registration plate and be owned by Orix. Here's what you get with the Nexon EV XZ+ in terms of features.
The Nexon EV's lithium-ion battery is of 30.2kWh capacity and feeds a permanent-magnet AC motor that puts 129PS and 245Nm through the front wheels. This allows for a brisk 0 to 100kmph time of 9.9s, the top speed is limited to 120kmph. The SUV will do over 312km on a full charge as per the ARAI, a real-world range of around 240km can be expected in the real world. There is a single-speed gearbox with two drive mode options, Drive and Sport. In the Sport mode, there is a torque boost of up to 60 per cent to give you the full 245Nm. Through a DC fast charger, the Nexon EV will reach 80 per cent capacity in 60 minutes. The car can also be plugged into any standard power socket, which takes eight hours to get from 20 to 80 per cent charge.
