    The Nissan Magnite Red Edition will launch on July 18 and bookings for it are already underway. It commemorates the 1,00,000-bookings milestone of the Nissan Magnite and will be based on the XV trim and is available in all three powertrain options – 1.0-litre NA petrol manual, 1.0-litre turbo-petrol manual and 1.0-litre turbo-petrol CVT. The Nissan Magnite Red is the first special edition of the SUV since its launch in 2020.

    • Based on the XV trim

    Gets red accents, more equipment 

    The Magnite Red Edition gets red accents on the grille, front bumper cladding, wheel arch and side body cladding. Additionally, it also features body graphics, chrome garnish on the rear tailgate, an illuminated door sills, and a prominent Red Edition badge. Additionally, Nissan is also adding wireless charging, LED DRLs and ambient lighting to the list of features. 

    As it is based on the XV variant, the Nissan Magnite Red Edition gets an 8.0-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, push-button start, shark-fin antenna and an air-purifier.

    There are no mechanical changes to the Red Edition and it continues to be powered by a 72hp, 1.0-litre naturally-aspirated petrol engine or a 100hp, 1.0-litre turbo-petrol unit. The latter is also available with a CVT, along with a standard 5-speed manual. 

    The Magnite, with its attractive price and well-equipped higher variants, has seen success in the Indian market. Nissan recently rolled out the 50,000th Magnite from its Oragadam plant near Chennai. The compact SUV is also exported to 15 countries. 

    In India, the Magnite rivals lower variants of other compact SUVs like the Kia Sonet, Hyundai Venue, Tata Nexon, Mahindra XUV300, the new Maruti Suzuki Brezza, and also models like the Renault Kiger and Tata Punch
