One Major Cosmetic Update
With the new transmission option, the Nissan Magnite gets a new dual-tone paint option: blue with black roof. Nissan will be offering the new paint option only on the higher-spec variants of the Magnite AMT. The only other minor revision is the inclusion of the ‘EZ-Shift’ badge on the bootlid.
Rivals
The Nissan Magnite AMT will take on the likes of the Mahindra XUV300 AMT, Tata Nexon AMT, Renault Kiger AMT, and the Maruti Fronx AMT.
