Tata Nexon vs Maruti Vitara Brezza vs Mahindra TUV300: Price Comparison

With the launch of the Tata Nexon, Tata Motors has now finally entered sub-4 metre SUVs space. However, the subcompact SUV segment gets some highly established offerings like the Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza and Mahindra TUV300. Both models are doing good numbers and are quite well priced as well. We haven't added the equally popular Ford EcoSport to this comparison since the model is slated for a comprehensive facelift soon. That said, how does the new Tata Nexon compete against its primary rivals in the segment? We do a quick price comparison to find out.

The new Tata Nexon is available in four variants across two engine options. However, its competitors do not get a petrol powertrain and hence it makes sense to compare only the diesel versions.

Mid Variants

The Nexon continues to remain aggressive in its pricing in the mid variants as well with the XM trim priced at Rs. 7.34 lakh, which is about Rs. 43,000 cheaper than the Brezza VDi. The Nexon XM is also cheaper by Rs. 1 lakh over the Mahindra TUV T6 trim. However, the more expensive Nexon XT trim packs in more features on Tata's subcompact SUV, whilst reducing the price difference. The XT is priced at Rs. 8.15 lakh, which is more expensive than the VDi and VDi (O), but is still cheaper than the Rs. 8.60 lakh sticker price on the TUV300 T6+.
