The long-range Tata Nexon EV Max is expected to get a bigger 40 kWh battery and 400+ km range
Tata Motors is all set to launch the long-range version of its all-electric subcompact SUV – the Tata Nexon EV Max on May 11. While technical details and range have not been revealed yet, the SUV is expected to come with a bigger 40 kWh battery with a claimed range of over 400 km. Apart from that, based on the teasers released by the company the electric SUV will now also come with a new rotary dial for transmission, electronic parking brake and auto-hold function. And these features are certainly expected to bump up the price of the upcoming Tata Nexon EV Max.

Now, the regular Nexon EV is offered in three variants – XM, XZ and XZ LUX, with Dark Edition options of the latter two trims, and it’s priced from ₹ 14.54 lakh to ₹ 17.15 lakh (ex-showroom, India). In the case of the long-range Nexon EV Max, we expect it to be sold alongside the existing model, and given the bigger battery pack and new features, the EV is likely to receive a hike of ₹ 2-3 lakh and will be priced around ₹ 18 lakh to ₹ 20 lakh (ex-showroom).

Visually, the new long-range Tata Nexon EV Max will largely remain identical to the regular model, however, we do expect to see the addition of a ‘Max’ badge on the EV. The cabin too is largely expected to remain unchanged. However, the car will come with an updated centre console, featuring a new rotary dial with a display unit that shows you the mode you are in, along with some other features.
