Tata Motors is planning to launch the facelift version of the mega-popular Nexon compact SUV and the spy shots of the test mule show some interesting elements inside the cabin.
The facelift version of the already successful Tata Nexon might feature a screen or display on its steering wheel. There are spy shots of the test mule being spotted on a daily basis. As a result, we keep getting new updates regarding the Nexon. It has consistently featured on the list of the top 10 highest-selling vehicles in India month after month. However, with the rise in competition in this overcrowded segment, Tata Motors wants to launch a refreshed version of the compact SUV soon. That is confirmed by the various test mules being spotted for months now.

2023 Tata Nexon Facelift Screen on Steering?
The visuals below show the screen in action. There is a Tata logo that is illuminated on the screen that is supposed to get installed in the middle of the steering wheel. The buttons for the horn might be placed on either side of this screen. However, we are not sure if this screen will display other information for the driver or just this logo. For that, we shall need to wait a little longer. But we did see something along those lines in the Avinya and CURVV concept EVs showcased by Tata Motors last year.

Specs
Also, there are multiple spy shots that indicate that the new Nexon will get a two-spoke steering wheel instead of the traditional 3-spoke unit. That makes the car look quite sporty as you might have seen in the latest Skoda and Hyundai products too. Apart from that, the new Nexon is supposed to get the new 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine that would generate 125 PS and 225 Nm of peak power and torque in addition to the existing 1.5-litre diesel mill churning out 115 PS and 260 Nm of peak power and torque. Apart from that, we could see the redesigned front and rear bumpers and a new split-LED headlamp cluster like that on the Punch and Harrier/Safari.

What We Think
The compact SUV segment has seen vehicles from all major carmakers in the country. As a result, these SUVs need to be special and attractive in order to gain the attention and appreciation of potential buyers. We are sure that Tata Motors will not leave any stone unturned when it comes to equipping the facelift model of the Nexon with the latest features and tech gizmos. The launch is expected to be around the corner and more details will be revealed then including the pricing.
