Tata Nexon is the first car in the country which comes in all four versions – petrol, diesel, CNG and electric.
Tata Motors has today (24 September) launched the CNG version of its most popular car Nexon. This compact SUV comes with a turbo petrol engine. Hence, this is the first car in India to come with a turbo petrol engine and CNG combination. The company claims that the car will run 24 kilometers in one kilo of CNG.
The Nexon now comes with a panoramic sunroof along with the CNG powertrain. Tata has offered the Nexon iCNG in four variants – 8 variants. Its price starts at Rs 8.99 lakh with the Smart variant, going up to Rs 14.59 lakh (ex-showroom, pan-India) for the top variant Fearless Plus PS.

Twin-cylinder tank setup with 60-litre capacity There are no changes in the exterior and interior design of Nexon iCNG. The biggest change is in the boot. Here you will see twin cylinder technology. This technology has a twin-cylinder tank setup (two cylinders of 30-30 liters) with a capacity of 60 liters.
