The Magnite facelift has also been seen on the roads, offering early insights into the new features and design changes set to be revealed at the event.

The updated model, seen at the Bharat NCAP crash test facility, is expected to feature a refreshed front grille, a revised bumper, and new headlight designs.

For safety, the Magnite will continue to offer six airbags as standard, along with a 360-degree camera, tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), and ISOFIX child seat anchorages.
