"Oh it is built and tested, just not operational, because no one has inaugurated it yet". One of my friends asked the folks there, about 15 days back, this is the response we got

The charger has not been inaugurated yet (as of 27/01/20) but I managed to get a picture of charging rates
They are
₹70 basic charge + ₹6/kWh. Time of Day rebates and additional charges apply as well. Attaching picture of the same. It does equate to charging the Nexon EV to 100% for ₹251.

Thanks for the Post.

Strangely, this is Bharart DC-001 standard, not CCS2. 72V. Most likely GB/T plug.

May charge the Tigor EV, but not Nexon, which uses high voltage DC with CCS2 plug.

So, I don't think this is of any use for the new Nexon drivers.

For a mass market targeting car in India, the top most item in the requirement list after a competitive price is the range. A car that does a 6 second run to the ton but has a 150 km range won't be preferred over a car that does a 10 second 10 and gives 250 km range on a charge. For a car that does a 5 second ton & gives 250 km range - the battery pack cost will rocket up.

So there is a very thin line to walk for these car makers in India at this stage while the customers are still not ready in huge numbers to make the change.

+1 to that. It is always a compromise between acceleration and range. I think TML would have limited the acceleration intentionally in SW to provide maximum possible range to any sort of driver.

Most likely. What we know for sure is that the top speed is software limited to 120 to ensure a linear battery depletion & no sudden drop. Makes journeys predictable that way in case the driver is enthusiastic & ignorant about "fuel" usage pattern.

12:23 and still not started. Is it that hard to start event on time?

EDIT: Started now

Croma integration sounds very very smart. Am sure soon they will have fast charger with Grocery chains. Do your weekend shopping while your car charges and you are all set for the week.

It should not happen.

They have CEOs of many tata group companies, Chairman of Tata group, Chairman Emiritus Ratan Tata attending. May have caused a delay.

I am planning my test drive tomorrow.

They seem to have tapped into the entire Tata ecosystem of companies for making this project a success.

The interesting part is the subscription model (12 months - 4 years) with no down payment

Ratan Tata attended the launch!

Introductory pricing:

XM: ₹13.99 lakhs
XZ+:₹14.99 lakhs
XZ+ Lux: ₹15.99 lakhs

tarik.arora · 28th January 2020, 13:04

Offering subscription is good news for people like me who would love to experience the product first hand without committing. And yes, Croma integration is a very smart move from Tata.

Update: 13.99 starting (very very aggressive)
XZ+ : 14.99
XZ+ LUX: 15.99

I think the pricing is very good.

Much awaited details, the pricing:

13.99 lacs Introductory Price!!!

Way to go Tata!!!

hkollar · 28th January 2020, 13:16

Nexon EV launched at an amazing starting price of 14Lakhs. That's almost same as their top end fossil fuel version.

Absolutely mind blowing.

Pricing announced.
Seems to be value for money.
