For the third year straight, the compact SUV Nissan Magnite has reached a significant milestone by selling over 30,000 units. The Japanese automaker also shared that in January this year, domestic sales of the Magnite reached one million.
In the fiscal year 2023-24, Nissan sold 30,146 units of Magnite in India. This is slightly less than the 32,546 units sold in the previous fiscal year and the record-breaking 33,905 units sold in FY2021-22. Since its launch in December 2020, the company has exported over 30,000 units of the Magnite to international markets. The compact SUV is shipped to several countries, including Uganda, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan, and Indonesia.
The Nissan Magnite SUV provides customers with two engine options. The first is a 1.0-liter naturally aspirated (NA) engine, delivering 71bhp and 96Nm of torque. The second option is a 1.0-liter turbo-petrol engine, producing a maximum power of 99bhp and a peak torque of 160Nm. The turbo engine is paired with a standard five-speed manual gearbox, and customers can opt for a CVT transmission, which reduces torque to 152Nm. Additionally, a five-speed AM version of the naturally aspirated petrol engine is now available.
