Nissan Tests Magnite Facelift Model, The Back Is More Sporty

JAKARTA - The Magnite model has been part of the ranks of Nissan's utility vehicles since October 2020 without experiencing any significant changes. However, it seems that the Japanese manufacturer is currently developing a facelift version of the compact crossover with a number of expected changes.

Launching RushLane, Wednesday, March 20, Nissan Magnite facelift is seen being tested on the streets of Chennai, India. Although still covered with camouflage blankets, the car features a silhouette that provides an overview of the changes to be brought.

The back looks more sporty with the presence of spoilers connected to the roof, as well as stronger pillar-C designs visible on the side. Although only the side and back are visible, it is likely that this car will carry the latest 16-inch rim design. In addition, the rear LED light pattern also looks different from the previous version.

Although the interior picture is still vague, the white dashboard looks prominent. It is estimated that this model will be equipped with a number of additional features such as a ventilated chair, a turning light system, and the use of softer plastic materials.

Another feature that is expected to remain available is an 8-inch infotainment display with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connectivity, TFT instrument screen, automatic temperature controller, start button, keywords entry, and features connected to the Nissan Connect.

In terms of powertrain, Nissan Magnite will not change, meaning the 1.0 liter 3-cylinder naturally-asspirated and turbocharged machines will be maintained with the same power and torque as before.
