While the traffic police in India usually travels in Maruti Ertigas or Toyota Innovas, the Tata Nexon could also be an ideal alternative.

Being the first made-in-India car to achieve an excellent 5-star rating for adult safety in the Global NCAP, the Tata Nexon is considered to be one of the safest cars in the country. Thanks to its high safety level, impressive feature list and attractive design, the Nexon is also one of the most popular SUVs with the Indian auto customers. The Tata Nexon received a mid-life facelift at the beginning of 2020. It got a newly-designed front end, several new features and a BS6 compliant engine. In the video below, the new Tata Nexon has been digitally rendered as a police interceptor and modified accordingly.  

At the beginning of the video, the paint scheme of the Tata Nexon is altered, from Olive Green with a white roof to Black, which is usually used as the colour for Police car, with ‘Police Interceptor’ written on its doors. The front of the SUV gets a new bull bar, offering extra protection. New small red-blue LED lights have also been placed on the bull bar. Furthermore, a small LED floodlight has been integrated with the wing mirror. A blue red-white-and-blue beacon has been mounted to the top of the car. At the end of the video, the rendered car also gets a white scheme option

The Tata Nexon has now been upgraded to become BSVI-compliant. The SUV receives its power from a 1.2-litre 3-cyl turbo gasoline burner and a 1.5-litre oil unit. While the former can generate 120 PS against 170 Nm, the latter can deliver 110 PS against 260 Nm. Both of the motors are mated to a 6-speed MT/AMT. The SUV is now also available with a pure electric motor, which is offered in the top-spec variant.
