Among the 35 Tata Motors Ltd entries in the MotorJury library, the Tata Nexon holds its own page in a catalogue built to record every car ever made, from series production to one-off concepts. The record places its introduction in 2017. The photography on this page is hotlinked from Wikimedia Commons under an open licence, with the photographer credited on every frame.

The era it was born into

To read the Tata Nexon properly it helps to place it in its decade. The 2010s were the decade electrification stopped being a science project — Tesla forced the incumbents' hand, downsized turbo engines replaced displacement, and the crossover conquered every market. Any car launched into that world was shaped by it — by what materials, engineering and regulation allowed, and by what buyers of the day demanded. Its direct contemporaries in this catalogue, introduced within three years of it, include the Tesla Tesla Model 3, the Chevrolet Chevrolet Bolt, the Chevrolet Chevrolet Camaro — the cars a buyer of the period would actually have cross-shopped.

The numbers, read closely

On paper, the Tata Nexon reads like this: the record lists its engine as Petrol engine / Petrol: / 1.2 L Tata Revotron engine / Revotron Inline-three engine / I3 Turbocharger / turbo / Diesel engine / Diesel: / 1.5 L Revotorq Inline-four engine / I4 Tur; quoted output is 81-88 kW (1.2 L petrol) / 81 kW (1.5 L diesel) / 95 kW (Nexon EV) / 106.64 kW (Nexon EV Max); kerb weight is recorded at 1225 – 1437 – (Nexon.EV); drive goes through 5-speed Manual transmission / manual (2023–present) / 6-speed manual / 6-speed Automated manual transmission / AMT / 7-speed Dual-clutch transmission / DCT (2023–present); the layout is Front-engine, front-wheel-drive / Front-motor, front-wheel-drive (EV). Worked together, those figures give roughly 66 horsepower per tonne — the single number that says more about how a car actually moves than any of its parts alone. Every figure above is a manufacturer specification carried by the Wikipedia infobox or the open Wikidata record for this model — nothing on this page is estimated, and where a source is silent the row simply does not appear.

Its place in the Tata Motors Ltd story

Within Tata Motors Ltd's own catalogue the Tata Nexon sits alongside the TaMo Racemo, the Tata 407, the Tata Ace Zip, the Tata Altroz. Assembly is recorded at India: Ranjangaon, Pune (FIAPL); Sanand, Gujarat ( , electric, 2024–present).

How this catalogue works

This library is generated, verified and rebuilt from the open record on every deploy. The catalogue skeleton comes from Wikidata, specifications from Wikipedia's infoboxes under CC BY-SA, photography from Wikimedia Commons under each file's own licence, and the ownership data from United States federal safety records. Nothing is written by hand and nothing is invented: every fact on this page traces to a public source, and every page is rebuilt nightly as those sources improve. Errors in the source record will appear here too — and disappear the night the source is corrected.

From catalogue to ownership

A specification sheet is only half a car's story. The other half — what breaks, what it costs to keep, which years to avoid — lives in MotorJury's ownership database, computed nightly from federal complaint and recall records and EPA economy data. Where the Tata Nexon was sold in the United States, its model years carry full ownership verdicts there.
