What's the story
Tata Motors has discontinued a few diesel variants of its Nexon SUV in India, according to Team-BHP. The eliminated trims include the XE, XMA, XZ, and XZA+ (S) variants, and dealers have stopped accepting bookings for these trims. To recall, just last month, the company had updated its Nexon SUV by replacing the older V-shaped wheels with new dual-tone alloy units. Here's our roundup.
