Nissan Tekton
The Nissan Tekton price in India is expected to land at around Rs 11-19 lakh (ex-showroom). The Tekton is Nissan’s upcoming rival to midsize SUVs like the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Maruti Victoris, Tata Curvv, Toyota Hyryder, Volkswagen Taigun, Skoda Kushaq, Maruti Grand Vitara, and MG Astor. Based on the upcoming Renault Duster, the Nissan Tekton will launch in India in mid-2026.
For the Tekton’s design, Nissan has adopted styling cues from its larger Patrol SUV. The Tekton features C-shaped LED light bars at the front and rear, along with a butch stance, roof spoiler, high ground clearance, silver bumper trim, alloy wheels, and chunky body cladding. Nissan has yet to fully reveal the Tekton interior, but has confirmed a three-tone colour scheme comprising blue, black, and copper. There’s a central infotainment touchscreen, and the AC vents appear to be quite large too.
The Tekton engine options have yet to be revealed as well, but Nissan is likely to offer 1.3-litre and 1.0-litre turbo-petrol motors with the midsize SUV, along with manual and automatic gearbox options.

Trending Questions on Nissan Tekton - Answered by Autocar Experts
I have shortlisted two cars: Nissan Tekton top-variant DCT with ADAS, and Tata Nexon next-generation “Project Garud,” due for release in the second half of 2026. My requirements in a car includes 360° camera with Android Auto/Apple CarPlay wireless connectivity, higher ground clearance, level 2 ADAS, auto rain-sensing wipers, Aerotwin (frameless) wipers, electrically adjustable and ventilated seats, and a panoramic sunroof. Please guide me on which car to choose.
The next-gen Tata Nexon is still on the drawing board and is unlikely to be launched in 2026. At best, the Nexon could see some refreshes next year. The Nissan Tekton is due in Feb 2026, and it is worth waiting. But it is unlikely to come with a DCT and will instead get a torque converter (AT) automatic, which, in our view, is more suitable for Indian conditions.
We are not sure about the list of features for the Tekton, but it is likely to be well-equipped and will include most of the features on your list.
Is it worth upgrading my Nissan Terrano, or should I buy a new car?
The Nissan Terrano is essentially a rebadged Renault Duster, and both models are now quite old. If you are happy with the car and its performance, you can consider upgrading to a new one. However, the Renault Duster will be making a return next month, and Nissan will also have its own version, which it calls the 'Tekton'.
We would recommend you wait to see those SUVs and then plan your new purchase.
