Tata Nexon Hits a Massive 10 Lakh Milestone Why India is Obsessed with This SUV:

It’s official the Tata Nexon is no longer just a popular car; it’s a national phenomenon. As of February 2026, Tata Motors has hit a historic milestone: the Nexon has officially crossed the 1 million (10 lakh) cumulative sales mark in India.

For a car that launched in 2017 with a bold new design, reaching seven figures in sales is a testament to how much the Indian consumer’s mindset has shifted toward safety, local manufacturing, and versatile choices.

January 2026: The Month of Records

The journey to 1 million was capped off by a spectacular January 2026. Not only did the Nexon help Tata Motors reach its highest-ever monthly sales of over 71,000 units, but the SUV itself became the No. 1 selling vehicle in the country for the month. With 23,365 units sold in just 31 days, it edged past every other competitor to take the crown.

Why is it Selling Like Hotcakes?

The secret to the Nexon's "1-million" success lies in its variety. It is one of the few cars in India that gives you "the power of choice" in the truest sense:

Petrol & Diesel: For the traditionalists and long-distance cruisers.

CNG: For the budget-conscious urban commuter.

Electric (EV): The Nexon.ev alone has crossed 1 lakh sales, making it India’s favorite electric car.

Combined with a 5-star safety rating and a design that keeps getting sharper with every facelift, the Nexon has become the default choice for young families and enthusiasts alike.

What’s Next?

Tata isn't slowing down. While the current Nexon is ruling the roads, the company is already preparing for the next-generation model, likely to debut by late 2026 or early 2027. For now, 1 million homes across India have a Nexon parked in the driveway, and that number is growing faster than ever.
