Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2024: Tata Motors is showcasing the Nexon iCNG concept at the ongoing Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2024. Along with the Nexon CNG, Tata is also showcasing the Curvv SUV at the expo. Post the launch of the Nexon CNG, the Tata Nexon will be available in all powertrains - ICE, EV and CNG. Tata Nexon CNG showcased at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo is in its concept form. However, the Nexon CNG concept displayed at the expo has been updated with all the latest design changes that are present in the recently launched facelift model of the Tata Nexon.
Tata Nexon CNG - Twin-Cylinder Technology
Tata Nexon CNG will be equipped with the twin-cylinder technology that is featured in other CNG models from the manufacturer. Tata Motors has innovated its CNG technology by incorporating two smaller cylinders with equal capacity, as opposed to a single large cylinder. This advancement has allowed Tata Motors to create additional space at the rear to accommodate more luggage.
Tata Nexon CNG - Turbocharged Powertrain
In addition to this, Nexon CNG is poised to become India’s first-ever car to feature a turbocharged CNG powertrain. Tata Motors has confirmed that the Nexon CNG will be powered by its 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine that delivers a power output of 118 bhp and 170 Nm of torque. While specific details about the CNG variant’s output are yet to be disclosed, the engine is likely to be paired with both manual and automatic transmissions.
