    Full disclaimer – we tested both Nexons for fuel economy in their efficiency-enhancing Eco modes. In our city test loop, the petrol delivered a mediocre 9kpl. Out on the highway, where sixth gear came into play, the petrol Nexon bettered its performance with a figure of 13kpl, which, if you think about it, is still not a shining number for a car of this size. As with all turbo-petrols, an aggressive driving style has a big impact on economy. Drive hard and you’ll make your way through the Nexon’s 44-litre tank alarmingly fast.

    The diesel Nexon was expectedly more efficient with city and highway fuel economy figures of 14kpl and 18kpl, respectively, making it about at par with diesel rivals.
