Pros & Cons Comparison

Things We Like in Tata Nexon

Holds 5-star ratings from both Bharat NCAP (2024) and Global NCAP (2024), scoring 29.41/32 and 32.22/34 respectively for adult occupant protection.
The 7-speed dual-clutch automatic (DCA) is a notably sophisticated transmission for this price band, featuring wet clutch technology with active cooling, machine learning adaptation, and a self-healing mechanism.

Things We Like in Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara

The Strong Hybrid delivers ARAI-certified efficiency of 27.97 km/l.
Six airbags are standard on every variant, including the base model.

Things We Don't Like in Tata Nexon

Knee airbags are not available on any variant, a gap that is flagged in the Bharat NCAP safety equipment listing.
The CNG variant is available only with a 6-speed manual transmission system. No automatic option exists for buyers who want both CNG running costs and a gearbox-free driving experience.

Things We Don't Like in Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara

The Grand Vitara does not offer any diesel engine option.
No ADAS features, not even lane departure warning or autonomous emergency braking, are offered on any variant.
