Apple CarPlay will be available with the XZ, XZ+ and XZA+ variants by mid-August via a software update.

Tata Motors has recently launched the Apple CarPlay on the Nexon’s infotainment system. It was previously available only with Android Auto. Impressively, the three higher-spec trims of the Nexon which are the XZ, XZ+ and XZA+ (automatic) will get the Harman-sourced 6.5-inch infotainment system that responds to voice commands.

However, as for the older variants, they can only get the software update at Tata dealerships with the price from R11.31 to Rs 12.50. The update is supposed to take 30 minutes to install.

The Nexon compact SUV is available with two options which are

  • 1.2-litre engine with the three-cylinder turbo-petrol engine (from the Revotron series) making 110hp and 170Nm of torque, 

  • 1.5-litre engine with a four-cylinder turbo-diesel motor (from the Revotorq series) that produces 110hp and 260Nm of peak torque. 

Both engines have two transmission options – a six-speed manual and a six-speed AMT.

The Nexon compact SUV has been considered as a blockbuster for Tata which boosts a 14 percent growth in terms of domestic sales in July 2018. Earlier this year, despite being in the top-spec XZA+ trim, the brand brought out the AMT-equipped model. Recently, the automaker has introduced a lower-spec XMA variant as well. The automatic models also made up considerably for the sales figure of Tata’s.
