Tata Motors has shared few more details on the recently announced electric vehicle technology brand Ziptron. The first vehicle to feature that technology will be the Nexon EV, expected to debut in Q4 FY19-20.
The company has signed up the celebrity couple Milind Soman and Ankita Konwar to experience the prototype and drive it around different terrains of the country and share the experience. Tata Motors is targetting a range of up to 300 km. As shared previously, the motor and battery will come with a warranty of 8 years and will be IP67 (dust and waterproof) compliant.
The couple will be zipping from Manali to Leh under the #TheUltimateElectricDrive campaign. As part of this journey, the Nexon EV will cover some of the toughest terrains in India, including the high altitude Himalayan passes with unpaved roads and steep gradients, with limited charging infrastructure and under extreme weather conditions, the company said.
We are proud to announce that Nexon EV will be available for personal buyers in India from Q4 (Jan-Mar) FY19-20. Nexon EV promises to address the barriers that exist in the EV market today and will deliver a thrilling on-road performance. We are confident that the new Nexon EV will further raise the bar for electric cars. – Shailesh Chandra, President – Electric Mobility Business & Corporate Strategy, Tata Motors
While the Tigor EV was only for fleet operators, Tata Motors will offer the Nexon EV to private buyers as well. The company expects to price the Nexon EV between INR 15 to 17 lakh. Buyers can register their interest by filling a form here.
