Performance
Generally speaking, the Tata Nexon's ride comfort has been a strong point. The strength is evident with the EV as well. It never feels uncomfortable, even though it feels firmer than its ICE cousin. Reliability at high speeds is acceptable, and poor roads are handled casually enough. Almost no effort is needed to move the Nexon EV around. It weighs enough for highway use but is light and quick for city steering. Through the corners, it's also fairly sharp and predictable.
