The safest SUV of India, Tata Nexon is due for a big update. Through their social media channels, Tata confirmed that the BS6 Nexon Facelift is scheduled to come on January 22. That’s the date when Tata is also launching the Altroz.

The updated Nexon will be available in more colour options, which will be revealed soon. New features include rain-sensing wipers, auto headlamps, leather seats and an electric sunroof. All these will come on the top-end variant only.
