Nissan Magnite Facelift: Interior Teased After Alloys And More
Based on the latest teasers, the upcoming Magnite facelift will feature a subtly redesigned grille, fresh alloy wheels, and updated LED tail lamps. The bumpers are also anticipated to receive a makeover. Inside, the SUV will sport a new dual-tone tan and black color scheme, replacing the previous all-black interior. While the overall dashboard layout will remain the same, the facelifted Magnite is expected to offer additional features such as ambient lighting on the dashboard and door panels.
The Magnite facelift will continue to offer popular features like wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a 360-degree surround camera, automatic climate control, a push start/stop button, steering-mounted controls, rear AC vents, and a center armrest for front passengers. What sets this update apart is the possible addition of a sunroof, making the Magnite facelift, an even more appealing choice in its segment. This is something that more and more affordable cars are offering for that extra bling.

Engine Options
The Nissan Magnite facelift will retain its current powertrain lineup. It will offer two petrol engine options: a naturally aspirated 1.0-liter 3-cylinder engine delivering 72PS and 96 Nm of torque, and a turbocharged 1.0-liter engine producing 100PS and 160 Nm of torque. Transmission choices include a 5-speed manual or an AMT for the naturally aspirated variant, and a 5-speed manual or a CVT for the turbocharged version.
| Engine | Power | Torque | Transmission Options |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.0-liter Naturally Aspirated | 72PS | 96 Nm | 5-speed MT, AMT |
| 1.0-liter Turbocharged | 100PS | 160 Nm | 5-speed MT, CVT |
The pre-facelift Nissan Magnite starts at Rs 6 lakh, positioning it as one of the most budget-friendly compact SUVs in India. The upcoming facelift is anticipated to see a slight price increase to maintain its competitive edge in the segment. It will continue to rival the likes of Tata Nexon, Hyundai Venue, Maruti Brezza, and other models in the category.
Verdict
While its overall design remains largely unchanged, expect subtle enhancements like updated bumpers, a refreshed grille, and some new convenient features in the cabin. Right now, the Magnite is being offered with substantial discounts throughout September as part of a clearance sale before the upgraded model arrives in showrooms. However, do not expect radial updates and just the functional bits are being updated to keep the freshness alive, but with the information at hand, it is likely to perform better than before.
