Nissan Magnite Red Edition: What’s Special?

The Nissan Magnite Red Edition comes with red accents on the grille, front bumper cladding, wheel arch, and side body cladding. But that’s not the only thing that separates it from the regular model. The Nissan Magnite Red Edition also gets a ‘Red Edition’ badge, along with bold body graphics, tail door garnish, and LED scuff plates. It will also offer 16-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels and new LED DRLs.

When it comes to safety, the Nissan Magnitr Red Edition will come with Traction Control System, Hill Assist, and Brake Assist.

Under the hood, the engine remains unchanged. It will get a 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine that can generate up to 72hp. The option of a 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine with CVT is also available.

The price of the Nissan Magnite Red Edition will be revealed as we get closer to the launch date. It will rival the lower-end variants of other midsize SUVs like Kia Sonet, Hyundai Venue, Tata Nexon, Mahindra XUV300, Tata Punch and the new Maruti Suzuki Brezza.
