But should the base Nano EV be introduced at approximately ₹5 lakh ex-showroom, the on-road price would be near 6 lakh in most states.

Ex-Showroom Price | 5,00,000 |
RTO & Road Tax | 25,000 – 30,000 |
Insurance | 20,000 – 25,000 |
Other Charges | 5,000 – 10,000 |
Total On-Road Price | 5.5 – 6 Lakh |
Tata Nano 2025 On-Road Price in Delhi
Prices of EVs tend to be lower in Delhi due to state subsidies on the road. When priced at 0.5 lakh on launch, the on-road price of the Nano EV in Delhi would be 5.2 -5.5 lakh post-subsidy.
Once again, it is just speculative but these are the estimates before Tata Motors confirms the actual price.
Tata Nano 2025 Model Features
The Tata Nano 2025 will probably be redesigned entirely using an EV platform. Although the size will be kept small, most likely the model will consist of:

This makes the Nano EV lower than the Tata Tiago EV in the company line.
