Pros Cons of Tata Nexon

Pros

  • Five-star safety rating and standard six airbags
  • The twin 10.25-inch screens
  • The diesel engine has excellent highway fuel economy

Cons

  • The petrol engine feels slightly jerky
  • Rearward visibility is poor due to the sloping roofline
  • The AMT gearbox on lower variants feels slow

Verdict

Tata fixed the dated interior of the previous generation and fitted in some class-leading screens and premium materials on the current Nexon. Its exterior styling makes it look like a much larger, more expensive SUV on the road as well. Although the touch-sensitive controls require a learning curve, and the petrol engine lacks the refinement of its Korean rivals, the safety suite is what makes this car so practical for families. Moreover, the diesel variant is the undisputed one for interstate highway cruises.

Seshan summarises,

“I have known owners who have hardly faced many issues with their Nexon and are quite happy with their purchase.”

Pros Cons of Tata Safari

Pros

  • The addition of the 1.5-litre petrol engine
  • The five-star Bharat NCAP rating
  • The 14.5-inch touchscreen
  • The JBL audio system
  • Second-row seating comfort

Cons

  • Compromised boot space
  • No AWD or 4x4 option

Verdict

The Tata Safari is a massive, imposing SUV that excels exactly where it is supposed to: covering highway miles while keeping its occupants as relaxed as possible. The recent updates modernised the cabin more, bringing in some stunning screens, advanced safety tech, and premium materials that exude ‘flagship’ status. The lack of boot space with all seats up is a noticeable drawback. Even then, you get a highly refined alternative in the new turbo-petrol engine. Overall, it’s one safe and tough family SUV that commands respect on the road.

Shams Raza Naqvi concludes about the car,

“The Tata Safari is an iconic nameplate with a massive fan following built over its two-and-a-half-decade journey. This latest generation has evolved significantly, and the recently launched facelift brings even more enhancements."
