Tata Nexon EV Max Completes 1.71 Lakh Kms In 3 Years: Owner Says Car Still Feels New [Video]

Tata is one of the leading electric vehicle manufacturers in India. The first model that the brand launched in the market was the Nexon EV. They had launched the Nexon EV and EV Max before introducing the facelifted version. The current version of the Nexon EV comes with a lifetime warranty for the battery. However, that was not the case with owners who opted for the earlier models, as they had a different warranty scheme.

Here we have a video of a Nexon EV Max owner who shares his experience with the vehicle after completing 1.71 lakh km and also talks about his plans with the EV now that the car is out of warranty. The video has been shared by GoGreenVlogs on their YouTube channel.

In this video, the owner of the Nexon EV Max talks about how he uses the vehicle and what his overall experience has been. He bought the pre-facelift version of the Nexon EV Max three years and two months ago. The official warranty of the vehicle has expired, and in the last three years, he has driven the car for over 1.71 lakh km. He mentions that the warranty for both the vehicle and the battery is now officially over.

During ownership, he has not faced any major issues except for the time when he had to replace the main battery of his vehicle at 50,000 km. That was done under warranty, and Tata carried out the work in a clean and punctual manner. After that, he had to replace the 12V battery that powers the lights and other components of the vehicle.

The stock tyres that came with the car lasted for around 85,000 km, and the second set lasted around 70,000 km. He has now replaced the tyres for the third time and expects a life of around 50,000 km from the new set. He mentions that he always uses a slow charger and does not let the battery percentage fall below 25 percent. He easily gets a driving range of 185 km with 25 percent charge still left in the car.

Coming to the battery, he mentions that he is not worried about battery life as he has saved a lot on fuel expenses over the last three years. He mentions that he spoke to a service center staff member who deals with Nexon EVs, and they told him that even if the battery starts showing signs of wear and tear, they won’t be replacing the entire pack. Instead, they will identify the faulty modules and replace them individually. Each module would cost around Rs 50,000 or more, but considering the amount he has saved on fuel every day, he is ready to spend that amount.

He also mentions that he is not planning to upgrade from the Nexon EV, as it has not given him any major headaches in the last three years. Even after completing over 1.71 lakh km on the odometer, the car still feels new and everything continues to work without any issues.
