Tata Hexa XM+ launched at Rs 15.27 lakh

The Tata Hexa XM+ gets 16 new features over the regular XM variant. 

With the festive season around, Tata Motors has launched a special edition variant of the Hexa. Billed as the Hexa XM+, the new trim gets a host of new features and a couple of aesthetic upgrades over the regular XM variant. It's priced at Rs 15.27 lakh, ex-showroom, Delhi, which is significantly higher than the regular XM variant at Rs 14.19 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).

For the extra money you pay, the XM+ variant adds as many as 16 new features, says Tata. This includes all-new 16-inch charcoal grey alloy wheels, soft-touch dashboard with Hexa branding, leather-wrapped steering wheel, fully automatic climate control, front fog lamps, reverse parking sensor with a camera, cruise control, automatic headlamps, rain-sensing wiper and electrically adjustable and foldable outside rear view mirrors. The rest of the package remains unchanged.

Mechanically, there are no revisions. This means the MPV continues to be powered by a 2.2-litre diesel engine that churns out 154bhp and 400Nm of torque. The XM+ is available with a six-speed manual. There’s no automatic transmission on offer with this variant, and it doesn’t get four-wheel drive either.

At this price-point, the Tata Hexa competes with the Mahindra XUV500, despite the fact that the former is more utilitarian in its design as compared to the latter.
