Product reviewed

Tata Nexon Camo (1.2L Turbo petrol, E20-supported) — mileage test in real-world highway driving using the brim-to-brim fuel method.

Key features / what’s discussed

  • Camo edition styling with camo badging
  • Use of cruise control during highway runs
  • Mention of 7-speed DCA dual clutch
  • Engine behavior: keeps running below ~1500 RPM at highway speed (around 80 km/h)
  • No overheating observed: temperature “has not increased yet” even after extended running
  • E20 fuel support confirmed during brim-to-brim checks (explicit confirmation: “E20 is written here, it supports E20”)

Mileage test method (user experience)

Brim-to-brim approach

  • Tank filled to auto-cut, then filled further to ensure full brim (finger submerged)
  • Trip meter reset
  • Driven around 50–60 km (later extended; total ~61.2–61.4 km before final brim-to-brim calculation)

Real driving includes

  • Highway cruising around 80–82 km/h
  • Flyovers / speed changes
  • Braking moments, causing noticeable fluctuations in meter/average

Main results (numbers given)

On-screen/in-meter averages during the drive

  • Early segment average: ~14.1 km/l
  • Later it settles around: ~19.7–20.6 km/l (with fluctuations)
  • Around midway/after settling: commonly ~20+ km/l
  • Briefly noted final meter readings: ~20.3–20.6, and ~21.0–21.6 on parts of the route

Final brim-to-brim calculated mileage (core conclusion)

  • Distance covered: ~61.4 km
  • Fuel filled (final brim-to-brim computation): ~3.7 liters
  • Reported final mileage: ~19.36 km/l
  • Described as “very good”, considering:
    • comfort
    • car size
    • highway driving at ~80 km/h
    • real-world conditions
    • E20 inclusion not causing issues

Pros mentioned

  • Strong real-world highway mileage: ends up ~19.36 km/l
  • Good drivability at speed: cruise around ~80 km/h, engine remains below ~1500 RPM
  • More stable behavior later (initial fluctuations reduce as the run continues)
  • Low vibration / comfort claim: 1.2L turbo described as “cute,” with no vibration reported
  • No overheating: temperature didn’t rise significantly during the run

Cons / limitations mentioned

  • Average readings fluctuate due to:
    • flyovers
    • acceleration/deceleration
    • braking events
  • The meter / IFU average isn’t trusted: reviewer prefers brim-to-brim
  • Notes that lab/AERAI-style mileage tests won’t match due to real-world factors like traffic, loading, gradients, etc.

Comparisons made

  • Against lab mileage claims (ARAI, etc.): real-world results differ due to controlled test conditions
  • Against other mileage tests (Skoda mentioned): reviewer references a personal Skoda mileage test but no direct Skoda mileage value is provided in this excerpt
  • Mentions Nexon variant context (diesel/CNG) and references comparisons like “Brez facelift” / “1.0 turbo,” though this excerpt mainly reinforces the Nexon real-mileage takeaway

Overall verdict / recommendation

Recommended if you want real highway mileage from the Tata Nexon Camo 1.2L Turbo (E20 supported).

Key takeaway: in real driving at around ~80 km/h, the car delivered ~19.36 km/l (brim-to-brim)—described as very good for the vehicle’s comfort and size.

Unique points mentioned (complete list from the subtitles)

  1. Nexon Camo edition arrival; camo badging.
  2. Brim-to-brim petrol filling for accurate mileage.
  3. Auto-cut about ~22 liters (while describing first-fill behavior).
  4. Reset and drive ~50 km first, later continues.
  5. Initial trip average: ~14.1 (after short distance).
  6. Highway cruising around 76–82 km/h; cruise control used.
  7. Car reaches 7th gear on cruise; below ~1500 RPM.
  8. AC working well; some comments about AC noise later.
  9. Temperature did not rise even after long run.
  10. Mileage “advantage” vs lab tests; lab conditions don’t reflect real driving (loading, slopes, traffic, etc.).
  11. Claim: engine smoothness; no vibration.
  12. Meter average is unreliable; prefer brim-to-brim; examples given (meter can show low/high but real differs).
  13. E20 support confirmed; mileage tested even with E20.
  14. Multiple fluctuations in average due to braking/flyovers; later averages stabilize.
  15. Car is “new” with ~1565 km run; friction/mileage improvement expected after more km.
  16. Multiple target estimates during test (around 17–18 expected, later ~20+ seen).
  17. Final approach: return to same petrol pump for consistent level and zero-to-zero check intent.
  18. Final distance: ~61.4 km.
  19. Final fuel added: multiple figures (~1.52L, ~1.65L), total described as ~3.7L added for brim-to-brim computation.
  20. Final calculated mileage: ~19.36 km/l.
  21. Conclusion: mileage very good considering comfort, size, and driving style at ~80.
