Magnite is a massive success for Nissan in the Indian market. Since its launch in December 2020, the sub-4m SUV has gained over 1 lakh bookings and over 50,000 units of the SUV have been delivered so far. To celebrate this huge breakthrough, Nissan will be launching Magnite Red Edition in India on 18th July 2022. Its bookings, however, have already begun across the nation.
Nissan Magnite Red Edition – How will it be different from the regular model?
The Nissan Magnite Red Edition will be based on the second from the top XV variant and will get splashes of red color on the front grille, bumper cladding, wheel arches, and body side cladding. It will also sport decals on the sides (running from the A to the C-pillar), chrome garnish for the tailgate, LED scuff plate, and of course the ‘Red Edition’ badging. The red highlights will continue inside the cabin as well.
In terms of features, the Red Edition will get a wireless smartphone charger and ambient lighting over the XV variant, which are currently optional for the range-topping XV Premium trim. Besides, features like 16-inch alloy wheels, an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, voice recognition, height-adjustable driver’s seat, a 7-inch TFT driver’s display, illuminated glove box, a rear-view camera, dual-airbags, traction control, and hill hold assist, etc., will be carried forward from its donor variant.

Expected Price
