Tata Nexon XM+(S): features and powertrain
Over the features that are already offered on the XM(S) trim, the Nexon XM+(S) gets a 7.0-inch touchscreen Harman infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, borrowed from the XZ, along with a cooled glove box, rear AC vents, a 12V rear power socket and a shark fin antenna, which come from the XZ+ trim.
