It comes with a warranty of 8 years. At present, it is priced in the range between Rs 14.24 lakh and Rs 16.85 lakh (both the prices are ex-showroom prices). It is speculated that the 2022 Nexon EV will be priced above this range.

Some of the changes like new diamond-cut alloy wheels may be offered to its side-profile. The rear portion will not receive any change.
Inside the cabin, there will be no change and will continue to come with the same seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system, that supports connectivity with a smartphone, a semi-digital instrument cluster with a 7-inch TFT display.
