Dear BHPians....I own 2009 Vista safire petrol. I am looking to upgrade to Nexon Petrol XZ+. Can some one tell me if it is right decision or I should see other options available? How is Nexon Petrol doing after nearing 2 years on road.

I have done test drive of venue and Nexon petrol. Venue did not inspire in terms of interior space and interiors did not inspire much.

Is XZ+ variant right choice? I am delhi based.

Same thoughts, these two are key features I will miss. Hope TATA finds a way to retrofit.

I think these features are back. Please check the rushlane site, even the white strip had been changed to glossy black

With the new features xz+ diesel in Bangalore is 10.15L ex-showroom. When I bought it was 9.9 this 25k hike will lead to 50k hike on road price owing to change in tax slab and TCS.
Tax on less than 10L is 14% and above 10L is 17%. That’s straight 30k extra in taxes and 10k in TCS. With lesser discounts than March we will pay quite a lot more

They are, but we need them in the cars we recently purchased.

@aniyo
Did the prices go up with these changes? Or are you referring to an earlier increase?

P.S. just got info from dealer the price went up by 10k mid June

Price increase I mentioned is from June. In April they had hiked by 4-5k and now they seem to have hiked 20k since then. That’s 25k hike since March 31. And about 40k hike since January 2019.

Yes there is official circular to all dealerships mentioning VIN number series for variants. Starting these VIN numbers new changes will be applicable

Just completed my 3rd free service at Concorde motors, Dairy circle, Bangalore. I was charged Rs.65 (adhesive tape) for a consumable that was used. All the other service tasks for 3rd service were done including a wiper fluid tank replacement that was part of a recall, and ICE update.

The experience was good just as the previous two times, but this time I noticed a couple of interesting things:
1. The final cleaning before handing over was done with two people overseeing it. The car was spick and span and they had done an excellent job
2. I was given a surprise gift - car freshener spray, wipes and face tissue.

Clearly they're trying hard to change their previous image.

First drive impressions - a definite change in the 1st to 2nd gear transition. Felt a lot smoother than before and in traffic I did not feel the gear shift a lot of the times.

Finally brought home my Nexon XZ+. First and foremost thing (even before Pooja ) did was Tyre change, opted for Michelin Primacy 4, Thanks to Sebring and Badboyscad. Ride quality is amazing.
Among the first things to do on the list were 1.Seat covers and Carpet from Top Gear, 2. Film (CR70 & RE50), Paint treatment and Roof Wrap also from 3M (partially done). Few minor add-ons were Door Visor, Scuff plates and Reflector Lights. Next on the list are Alloys (if budget permits).

Congrats, @agspins. Wishing you a long happy ownership of the Nexon. The sequence you have shared is what I had done with my Storme - delivery, diesel, ditch the OE Bridgestones for Michelin's - and then the Pooja at the temple


Did you get your seat covers yet ? One suggestion: fabric or leather, please. Art leather heats up. Even if the fabric gets worn out in 3 years, you get a refresh - and a differnt looking interior

Yep got the seat covers, they are high quality art leather. Art leather heats up a lot, based on earlier experience (a Good One) opted for Art leather from same Seat cover brand.

Oh man, My XZA+ is getting ready for this week delivery, guess i might miss this feature, should have delayed my purchase. Need to check the status of my company car lease, if its possible to postpone.

Can anyone confirm whether the Nexon gets dual blade wipers for the windshield? I was watching Faisal Khan's overview of the Nexon and he mentioned it being one of the few cars in this price bracket to have dual blade wipers, but couldn't find any mention of it in the TeamBHP review.
