The upcoming car was showcased at the Auto Expo 2016 and is expected to be launched in 2017.

As per reports however, the U-shaped position strips will by powered by LEDs, while the brake lights will be regular bulbs located in a triangular section of the tail-lamp. The lamps for lighting the registration plate area also seem to be powered by LEDs. The two tail-lamps are connected by a colour-painted panel that contrasts with the exterior colour in top-end variants.Expect the top-end Tata Nexon variants to get projector headlights, a ceramic side finish, contrast roof, 16-inch alloy wheels, LED daytime running lights, fog-lamps and gloss black finish for the wide grille.
