Virtually rising from one of its worse lows, Tata Motors has made waves with its radical-looking SUV and then it went ahead and made it even more sweeter by rolling out the Tata Nexon AMT, which means it is clutch-pedal free. This is a blessing for drivers who undergo the agony of constantly having to change gears in slowmoving traffic, especially in cities. What kind of effect has it had on sales? Since Tata Nexon launch, the auto major's market share in the UV segment has quadrupled! This SUV is expected to add to that massively, says DNA. So, what makes the Tata Nexon AMT so special?
