My new Nexon facelift DCA comes home: Likes & dislikes after 2 days

The steering feels very sorted for city drives. Have to take it on a long drive to test it further.

BHPian Pathfinder99 recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

Happy to report that I got my delivery a couple of days back. Writing this review after driving about 75 km in two days.

PDI - The staff was quite supportive. I realised that the SA was not that knowledgeable about the product, but it didn't matter because he was eager to help and I had watched every single video available on YouTube about Nexon facelift The inspection went smoothly as I found everything working just fine. There were some quality issues regarding fit and finish but that is expected from Tata. For example, the gap between the boot door and the body is not the same on either side. It's not that noticeable but once you see it it's hard not to see. Anyways I had made peace with such expected niggles when I switched from Elevate to Nexon because it made more sense to my needs.

Two things I love:

1. DCA is an absolute delight in a city.
2. 360 camera quality is really good. I never knew I needed it but now I am addicted.

Two things I like:

1. The design is definitely a head-turner when seen in person. I noticed several curious looks in 2 days. A cop pulled me over and spent more than 5 minutes asking me about this beauty.
2. The steering feels very sorted for city drives. Have to take it on a long drive to test it further.

Two things I hate:

1. I noticed the DCA gets confused sometimes at slow speeds and shifts down just when I need to accelerate, causing the engine to rev more.
2. If I use paddle shifters and then want to go back to automatic, I have to take my hand off the steering wheel and press the gear nob to put it in D. There is no way to do it just by using paddle shifters. Also, the vehicle doesn't automatically go to the previous drive mode, it by default goes to city mode. Then you have to again select your preferred drive mode.

I think these two issues can be resolved by an update. Fingers crossed.

Apart from that I absolutely love driving around in this car. Planning a long drive this weekend to explore more.
