I really wish Tata should launch updated Hexa again with some modifications. It's really a good car and very good option for overpriced Innova. We really have very less options in 7-8 seater space for less than 20-22 Lakhs. Even if Tata could sell 1000-1500, it's good enough number IMHO.

The proportions makes it look more like a replacement for Hexa than a Creta rival. Could be a distorted photo

Looks handsome whatever

This is not the Nexon Coupe but a Proton X50.

Looks like the Geely Coolray to me, right down to the alloys-



PS: Just saw the above post. Same car. Proton X50 is Geely Coolray/Binyue.

Size is similar to the Jeep Compass.

Confirmed from my internal birdie - it is indeed the Proton X50 inside TML plant's premises. It arrived 2 days ago as an internal benchmark vehicle for the upcoming Creta rival by Tata.There are many other such vehicles which have arrived/are arriving for internal tests.

AutoSpy didn't know, hence apologies from him and me for the confusion. AutoSpy's excitement was understandable.

Birdie chirps that Tata has ramped up work on the Nexon-based coupe. It will be 4.2 meters in length, very spacious inside and will take on the Hyundai Creta & the Kia Seltos.

Expect spottings of the first test mules in the days to come.

The product launch deadline that Tata set itself when it revealed the Curvv was 'well within 2 years'.

I think if test mules are already prepared, a 2023 end launch looks possible.

Hope the ICE version testing also starts ASAP. Though introducing the EV first and the ICE versions later will allow Tata a good degree of freedom in pricing.

Fresh news from our birdie - the Nexon coupe will be coming with a DCT transmission, and is expected to be launched by the festive season of 2023.

Did the birdie say if this is based on current gen Nexon or next Gen Nexon? Nexon is due for a generation change.

Also, is this DCT dry clutch or wet clutch? And also any chance of getting the new 1.5L Petrol Turbo on the Nexon Coupe?

I am afraid the 1.2L turbo will not cut ice when the competition has superior petrol engine spec.

Will be useful to get info from the birdie

Nexon coupe, DCT, 2023 festive season.

So going by earlier reports, will the BEV version be launched before that?

True, Curvv EV was slated for a 2024 launch with ICE models following that. If you remove "coupe" the story makes more sense.

[CEF_Beasts]

The Nexon Coupe will be sharing lots of body panels from the Nexon, I expect it to arrive quite soon.

Engine options from the Nexon itself, but can expect one of the powertrain options to offer more power and torque compared to the standard Nexon.

Curvv EV will come after the Nexon Coupe and the Curvv ICE versions after the EV.

Great news!

But, I thought, Curvv IS the Nexon coupe.
