New Platform
Internally codenamed ‘Garud’, the new Tata Nexon will shift to the new ATLAS (adaptive tech-forward lifestyle architecture) platform, which also underpins the Curvv.

The front bumper appears to feature an integrated squarish radar sensor for Level 2 ADAS (advanced driver assistance system).
Other key highlights will include newly-designed alloy wheels, pronounced roof rails, ORVM-mounted turn indicators, flared wheel arches, connected LED taillamps, revised rear bumper and a raked windshield.

The interior will receive an upgrade with the new leatherette upholstery, trims and new cabin theme. On the feature front, the new Tata Nexon is likely to offer powered and ventilated front seats, an upgraded touchscreen infotainment system and all digital driver’s display, dual zone climate control and a panoramic sunroof. The safety package is expected to include new Level 2 ADAS features, a tyre pressure monitoring system, six airbags and electronic stability control.
