Tata Motors has updated the 2025 Nexon with new features and a fresh look. The most notable change is the addition of level-1 Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). Alongside this, Tata has also launched a new Red Dark Edition that brings a sporty and premium appearance to the compact SUV.

ADAS Now Available on Nexon

The level-1 ADAS is now offered on the top-spec Fearless Plus PS variant and the new Red Dark Edition. However, it is available only with the turbo-petrol DCT powertrain. The ADAS package includes features like lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, front collision warning, high beam assist, traffic signal recognition, and autonomous emergency braking.

The updated Fearless Plus PS with ADAS comes at a slight premium of Rs 26,000 over the standard variant. The prices are:

• Fearless Plus PS (Without ADAS): Rs 13.27 lakh

The Red Dark Edition comes with cosmetic upgrades, including an all-black exterior, darkened wheels, blacked-out badges, and a Red Dark badge on the fender.

Inside, the cabin features a black dashboard with red-accented seats, giving it a sporty and premium feel. The 10.25-inch digital driver display and touchscreen infotainment system also get special themed graphics to match the interior style.

The Red Dark Edition commands a premium of up to Rs 28,000 over the regular Fearless Plus PS variant. Prices for different powertrains are as follows:
