Trending Questions on Nissan Cars - Answered by Autocar Experts
I am 65 years old and will be superannuating from service soon. My current car is chauffeur-driven. I am now looking for a comfortable automatic car for city use that I can drive myself, with occasional long trips of up to 300 km. My budget is โน8 lakh on-road. Please suggest suitable options.
Hi. Iโm a first-time car buyer with no driving experience, but I want to buy a CNG automatic car. Please suggest between the Tiago and the Tigor. It should be value for money. My monthly commute will be about 500 km in the city and a weekly highway trip of around 300-500 km.
If you want CNG with AMT, you have a limited choice. Tata Tiago is a better option between the two. While Tata Motors has not updated the product in some time now, there are very few CNG AMTs in the market currently.
If that is your requirement, then the Tata Tiago makes more sense. It offers better cabin space, and it has a usable boot despite the CNG cylinders taking up some luggage room.
The other option you can consider is the Nissan Magnite. It is easier on the pocket and has been updated recently. Maginte too comes with the CNG and AMT combination.
I have a budget of โน7-8 lakh, and the Nissan Magnite CNG is one of my choices, but I am worried about its resale value. Can I switch to the Maruti Fronx CNG by increasing my budget to โน9 lakh? However, I am concerned about safety there. Please suggest the best approach.
The Nissan Magnite CNG is available with a 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine, which is barely adequate to power this car. Furthermore, while running on CNG, performance will be lacklustre, and efficiency will also be low. And as you mentioned, resale value will be poor, hence it is best that you look at other options.
The Maruti Suzuki Fronx gets all the basic safety features like ABS with EBD and ESP, which prevent an accident from happening in the first place. Additionally, there are 6 airbags to keep you protected in case of an impact. Do note that the Fronx's petrol engine is much smoother, and overall, it is much nicer to drive.
However, if you want a proven, safe CNG car, go for the Tata Punch or Tata Altroz. While their powertrain isn't as smooth or as good as Maruti's, these are practical and spacious alternatives.
I have shortlisted two cars: Nissan Tekton top-variant DCT with ADAS, and Tata Nexon next-generation โProject Garud,โ due for release in the second half of 2026. My requirements in a car includes 360ยฐ 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.
I need a car for my family under 15 lakhs. My height is 6 ft, so smaller cars are uncomfortable for me. I would like to go for a safe & reliable car. My running is under 500km monthly, with 80% city and 20% highway. I'm okay with a pre-owned car/SUV as well. Thanks!
Reasons for the upgrade: AMT fatigue, better highway safety, improved suspension, and a bit more space. My usage: 1. Bangalore (Whitefield), moderate city driving 2. Around 20 days of highway driving per year 3. Planning to keep the car for about 9 years Must-haves: 1. 360-degree camera 2. Budget of โน15-16 lakh on-road (maximum) 3. Good suspension 4. Mileage is not a concern Considering the Hyundai Venue HX8 Turbo DCT with dealer-fitted 360-degree camera versus the Nissan Magnite Tekna+ Turbo CVT, which is feature-rich and reliable, at around โน13 lakh? Which offers strong value for money? How do Magniteโs reliability and service compare?
Suggest a family car for five members with good rear seat comfort within a โน10 lakh budget. Is the Skoda Kylaq a good option?
The Nissan Magnite is a good option for you. It has a spacious cabin and a comfortable rear seat that can accommodate three adults.
Apart from a 1.0 NA petrol engine, the Magnite is also available with a punchy 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine that can also be had with a CVT automatic. Meanwhile, the Skoda Kylaq's rear seat isn't as spacious for three adults.
Which is better between the Nissan Magnite and the Maruti Baleno base models? Which is more spacious and powerful?
Please suggest which car to buy between the Renault Kiger Automatic and the Nissan Magnite Automatic. My budget is โน11-12 lakh. Alternatively, you can suggest other options. My preference is automatic only.
The Nissan Magnite and Renault Kiger share their turbo-petrol CVT (automatic), which is a smooth yet powerful powertrain option.
Both cars have been refreshed recently with quite a few upmarket touches. Between the two, the Magnite looks a bit more SUVish and has slightly better cabin ergonomics.
If you have a Citroen touchpoint nearby, you must check out the C3 Turbo AT. It is a much better car at a more affordable price tag.
My budget is โน8 lakh and my family has five members. I am looking for the best family car within this budget, with rear-seat comfort being the top priority. Please suggest suitable options.
Given your requirements, the Nissan Magnite and Renault Kiger are worth a look. There's plenty of space for rear seat passengers, and there is enough room for three passengers to sit in the back in reasonable comfort.
You could also consider the superbly packaged Renault Triber. It's three rows of seats give lots of flexibility in seating, and the option to slide the middle row also means you can open up lots of legroom by moving the seat to its rearward position.
