Nissan Magnite likely to launch on November 26, say sources

Nissan-Magnite_3.jpg

Nissan Magnite subcompact SUV is headed straight to the Indian market and sources suggest that it will likely launch on the November 26. Select Nissan dealerships have also started accepting unofficial pre-bookings at a token amount ranging in between ₹11,000 to ₹25,000. It will sit in the hotly contested subcompact SUV space and will rival the likes of cars such as Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza, Mahindra XUV300, Hyundai Venue, and the recently-launched Kia Sonet and Toyota Urban Cruiser.
Nissan has already revealed details on the production-spec Magnite SUV and has confirmed all the details on its variants, engine options, transmission and colour choices.

The car is going to be offered in four grades - XE, XL, XV and XV Premium, and as many as 20 variants. The Sonet rival will be introduced in eight colour options - five single-tone and three dual-tone.

Under the hood, the Magnite will be plonked with two powertrain options - a 1.0-litre B4D dual-VVT and a 1.0-litre HRA0 turbocharged engine. Reports hint that the maximum power output will range between 71 bhp and 98 bhp, while the torque figures would sit between 96 Nm and 160 Nm. The transmission options will include a 5-speed manual unit as well as company's popular X-Tronic CVT box.

Magnite is going to be a very significant product for the company and it is even seen as a make-or-break offering for Nissan in India. The Japanese carmaker is expected to introduce the car in an extremely competitive pricing structure which will be Magnite's biggest weapon against the already established rivals.

Car looks good and there's no doubt about that but I think the panels will be paper thin like the Datsun. No point buying this car and I told my friend the same thing and now he's going for Tiago XZ .

Kudos for shortlisting Tiago and not another foil sheet from Korea or Japan.

BUT

With this assumptions and 'thinking' we are spoiling a lot of game.
- Vehicle is yet to reach the dealership, but we 'think' the panel will be paper thin
- we still 'think' Maruti is cheap to maintain
- we 'think' skoda service is horrible
- we 'think' Tata cars will lack quality

I have no objection on the above statements based on experience, but this 'thinking' business is something we should refrain from.

You are absolutely right. But there's a small difference. Those people are wrong who just buy a car on someone's recommendation without trying other cars.
I gave my advice and he did all the comparison, took a TD.

But yes I agree with you 100%.
Also a big pseudo SUV at this price point will raise concerns.

They have nailed it with the pricing, and it was expected, as it is the only thing right now for Nissan which can pull in crowd. Suddenly Hyundai Venue and Kia Sonet look grossly overpriced! If I was in the market right now for a vehicle, this would surely have been on top(abeit with due consideration to build quality). Yet it is going to be a tough task to convince people to get to Nissan specially when their showrooms look like this:-
