Nissan releases its new small SUV, the Magnite

Nissan has unveiled the all new Nissan Magnite SUV, combining powerful performance, a striking exterior and advanced technologies to help customers tackle any urban environment.

The Nissan Magnite is the next sub-four-metre SUV from Nissan after the Nissan Kicks and signifies another milestone in Nissan NEXT, the company's global transformation plan. The Nissan Magnite is scheduled to go on sale globally in 2021, starting first in India, where it is also being produced.

Designed in Japan, the Nissan Magnite has been crafted to suit the urban requirements and aspirations of customers. With its bold exterior, roomy interior, turbocharged engine and advanced safety technology, it is built to be the perfect city adventure companion.

The name 'Magnite' is a combination of the words magnetic and ignite, evoking the spirit of a new era in growing markets around the world.

The Nissan Magnite's exterior sets itself apart thanks to bold, fresh design that gives it a confident and agile stance while still appearing vibrant and youthful. The all-LED front light package includes noticeable L-shaped daytime running lights that sit below the stylish slim LED headlamps. Together with the sculpted grille, featuring Nissan's new brand logo, it gives the Nissan Magnite a striking SUV presence.

On the inside, the spacious layout includes a high seating position and wide shoulder space between the driver and front passenger. Rear passengers have a generous amount of knee room. An 8.0-inch infotainment touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto join the 7.0-inch infotainment screen for a premium feel.

The Nissan Magnite is powered by a 1.0-litre turbocharged engine. Built for urban adventures, the Nissan Magnite features 205mm of ground clearance, Hill Start Assist technology, front and rear bumper skid plates, and roof rails. The Magnite also comes with a 360 degree camera system to aid in parking and low speed manoeuvrability.
