Pristine White and Daytona Grey have the best resale — together they account for 55% of sales. White commands ₹20-40K premium in used market. Unusual colours like Purple and Teal may lose ₹30-50K at resale due to limited buyer interest.
Is Daytona Grey better than Pure Grey?

What is the Nexon XM Grey colour?
The trending "Nexon XM Grey" search refers to the Daytona Grey in the Smart+ (previously called XM) variant. It's the same Daytona Grey shade — just in the entry-mid variant. It's available from ₹9,00,000 (Smart+ MT Petrol).
Are dual-tone Nexon colours worth it?
At ₹15-18K extra, yes if you plan to keep 3+ years. The black roof adds significant visual appeal and premium look. White+Black dual-tone especially holds resale well. The black roof panel does require occasional polishing to prevent oxidation.
