Nissan Magnite facelift: A steady start

The Magnite SUV is produced at Nissan and Renault’s joint manufacturing facility in Chennai. The first export batch of the Nissan Magnite facelift was shipped to South Africa recently.

Buyers can opt for an additional ‘tech pack’ which consists of features like a dashcam, wireless charger, premium speakers (JBL powered by Harman), puddle lamps and LED scuff plates.

The interior layout of the SUV is largely similar to its outgoing version. It has a black and copper dual-tone colour theme for the cabin, dashboard, and upholstery. The steering wheel has an all-black finish and is mounted with essential control functions. The seat upholstery has a ‘Honeycomb’ pattern. The boot space capacity of the SUV is 540 litres.
