2020 Tata Tiago, Tigor And Nexon facelifts get significant exterior updates to be in line with the Impact Design 2.0 philosophy
After days of rumours, Tata Motors has finally launched the much anticipated 2020 Tata Nexon, Tiago and Tigor facelifts in India. As expected, the updated version of the compact SUV comes with the same styling updates that can be found on the upcoming Nexon EV. Moreover, the new model comes with BSVI-compliant versions of the 1.2-litre petrol and 1.5-litre diesel engines. It is priced from Rs 6.95 lakh for the petrol variant and Rs. 8.45 lakh for diesel (ex-showroom) – around Rs. 22,000 and Rs. 55,000 costlier for base petrol and diesel BSIV versions.
Bookings for the refreshed models have been underway already for Rs 11,000 and all of them get new features as well. On the outside, the BSVI 2020 Tata Nexon facelift looks almost identical like the Nexon EV. The only difference here is that instead of the shiny blue trim found on the electric version, the ICE-powered model comes with brushed aluminium accents.
