Tata Nexon is one of the best-selling products of the indigenous carmaker. Also, it was the first Indian-made car to score a complete 5-star crash test rating at Global NCAP. The Nexon was updated with a set of BS-6 compliant engine options and some cosmetic changes. Interestingly, these changes have helped the Nexon attract a lot more buyers, and the count is increasing by every passing month. Last month, Tata Motors sold a total of 6,888 units of the Nexon in the Indian market. In comparison to 4,438 units sold in October last year, it is a growth of 55 per cent on a YoY basis. A similar suit was followed by all the participants of the sub-4m compact-SUV segment except for the Mahindra TUV300 since it is temporarily not on sale.
